Ben Franklin’s Lessons in Life [TTC Audio]

How did a young tradesman in early 18th-century Philadelphia with no money, no connections, and no formal education end up as a leading scientist, an inventor, a master diplomat - and even a Founding Father of the United States of America?

He used the same resource we have inside ourselves: a capacity for self-improvement.

Building a better life through conscious, strategic effort was the essence of who Benjamin Franklin was. An embodiment of the Enlightenment ethos, he had an astonishing ability to set and achieve goals that led not only to personal success, but also to everything that helped to transform America - and the world.

With bona fides like those, who wouldn’t want to follow Franklin’s advice?
