Synopsis

Who would have thought that one of the most popular childhood toys held so many of life’s answers.

In The Little Red Wagon, prolific business leader and public servant Ron Simmons invites you to leave ordinary behind and glide into the richly meaningful life you were intended to live.

From his humble beginnings in the rural South to the heights of influence as an entrepreneur, finance executive, and three-term member of the Texas House of Representatives, Simmons mines the depths of his triumphs and travails to provide a wealth of applicable insights.

Whether you’re out front holding the wagon’s handle, shifting the direction from inside, riding along as cargo, or pushing from the rear, the place you occupy will set your course toward more of the same or to bold adventure.  

Simmons has learned that it isn’t a lack of talent or ability that often holds us back. It’s the lure of the safe, comfortable path that threatens to keep us stuck in a rut of fear and negativity, speeding along with no clear destination, or passively catching a ride instead of taking initiative and action.

Filled with winsome stories and hard-won lessons, The Little Red Wagonwill inspire you to:

• Escape a drifting, copy-and-paste life and embark on real adventure.
• Take the next uncomfortable step on your journey from settling to soaring.
• Recognize when to pivot to positions that move your wagon forward.
• Dream big and pursue your dreams with passion, purpose, and a plan.

The Little Red Wagon is certain to take you places that will change your outlook and your life.
