  Author of “one decision away” (late 2022) | for entrepreneurs, ceos, leaders & other high-achievers

  My name is Paula Melo Doroff and I am the author of One Decision Away. I I wrote this book as a road-map to guide you through important decisions in your life. You will learn actionable strategies that you can apply to your life, both personally and professionally. That’s because I believe where you are in your life right now is a strong indicator of where you're heading, unless you consciously choose to do something different. You will love this book if you enjoy reading personal and professional development books, or if you’re inspired by stories of real transformation. In my book you will get to read more about my own journey, but I’ll also share the powerful stories of incredible men and women with diverse backgrounds and experiences and one special thing in common: the ability to overcome tremendous adversity.You'll gain insights from people such as... • Nelson Mandela• Legendary Investor Ray Dalio• Professor Adam Grant - Wharton’s top professorOne Decision Away speaks to everyone, whether you are a man or a woman, working in corporate America or paving your own career, living paycheck to paycheck or living abundantly. The stories and principles highlighted in my book will change the game for you, helping you identify and dig out of places that are keeping you trapped, whether that’s in relationships, jobs, trauma from your past, or your own insecurities. Writing this book and owning my story has been an act of courage, as it also has been for those I interviewed. My hope is that this book will inspire you to take action and apply these key principles to create what you want for your life, no matter where you are at right now. Ultimately, One Decision Away will be a key resource for you to guide you on your own journey to make it the best it can be. Show less
