ABOUT THE BOOK
Because Every Daily Choice Matters
Every decision shapes your future. In You Were Born to Lead, leadership comes to life through powerful contrast-based learning.
Readers follow two unforgettable characters — the wise Leader and the short-sighted Loser — as they discover how everyday choices shape integrity, courage, curiosity, and purpose.
Instead of boring lectures, the lessons are memorable, witty, and highly actionable for readers of all ages.
Leaders Soar. Losers Sink.
A Daughter’s Loving Tribute to Her Father
This book is Marita Villafuerte-Pierce’s heartfelt gift of love and legacy to her late father, Philippine Congressman Luis R. Villafuerte.
It was born during Marita’s recovery from stage 4 cancer in 2016. During one of their long-distance calls, she asked her papa if they could document his wisdom together. That conversation, filled with their signature “What’s your great idea today?”, sparked the book.
As Marita prayed, the first quote came to her: “Leaders soar. Losers sink.”
The book includes the touching Foreword written by her father in 2016 and Marita’s deeply personal Preface — an intimate story of their father-daughter bond and his powerful example as a leader and papa.
Leadership Legacy
A life lived with integrity, vision, wisdom, courage, humility, and servant leadership is not just inspiring—it becomes a legacy that lasts a lifetime.
