The Miracle Morning tells the story of Hal Elrod and his inspirational battle to reclaim back his life going from a nearly life-ending fatal car accident and a steep amount of debt to becoming a successful speaker, author, coach, husband, and father. If you are looking for some inspiration in 2015, make sure you check out his book.

Here are my favorite quotes from the book:
