Eyes, Hands, Body Position and Run Like H-E-Double Hockey Sticks: For the Ones Who Were Never Meant to Sit Still- And Know It's Time to Build Somethin - Paperback

by Clay J. Abernathy (Author)

Eyes, Hands, and Run Like H-E-Double Hockey Sticks

The true story of what happens when faith, failure, and fire collide-then build something better.

This isn't your typical memoir.

It's part business book, part redemption arc, part adrenaline shot for your soul.

Clay J. Abernathy was never supposed to succeed.

A poor kid from Tucson with a clown suit in one hand and a real estate license in the other, he stumbled his way through knife sales, heartbreaks, hang gliding, failed startups, and full-on life collapses... only to build something the world desperately needed and didn't see coming: a new kind of school. A new kind of system. A new way to learn.

In this raw, funny, and brutally honest book, Clay doesn't just tell you how he built Idea'l Trade Institute-he walks you through the years of grit, grace, failure, and faith it took to get there.

You'll learn:

• Why the current education system is failing (and how we fix it)
• How to turn losses into launchpads
• What it means to lead when you're underqualified and overwhelmed
• How hands-on learning isn't just better-it's sacred
• And why your most painful moments might just be your blueprint

Perfect for dreamers, builders, burned-out believers, and anyone tired of waiting for permission.

If you've ever felt like your story was too messy to matter-read this.

If you've ever wanted to build something that doesn't exist yet-read this.

And if you're ready to run toward the edge and take off?

This book might just be your wing.
