In his motivational autobiography Glimpses of Greatness, Philip Guy Rochford shares the milestones of his life that mark not only his spiritual journey, but also his very successful professional career as a financier. Rochford was born in 1933 in Port of Spain, Trinidad-arriving into the world with a clean slate of consciousness. Raised in a strict Catholic household by a single mother, Rochford received his first lessons in applied economics as he and his family dealt with the financial ripples of World War II. With an honest, conversational style, Rochford details his intriguing life story beginning with his school years when he was encouraged to work in a local pharmacy to his education in several countries to the challenges-political, professional, and personal-that he faced on a daily basis as he enjoyed a fruitful career as an economist and chartered secretary, banker, and accountant. By including questions and answer segments at the end of each chapter, Rochford allows for deeper explanations, insight, and elaboration into his life experiences and many professional accomplishments. Rochford combines anecdotes, poetry, and letters with a compelling life story that will surely motivate others to let their brilliance shine through, no matter what their barriers.
