THE KITE OF YOUR GENIUS LIFTS YOUR COMMUNITY Kindle Edition
We are like kites. The vertical stick of the kite of your Genius runs between yourself and the spiritual world where you get your inspirations and insights. The horizontal stick runs between us to our family and community.
We bend or arc these sticks through our efforts or experiences so that our kite can not just survive in the headwinds of life, but gain lift and rise up. This book helps us understand how we fine-tune the airfoil of our lives to withstand even greater headwinds.
The secret is that the kite of you, of your Genius, is connected with many others — friends, family, or workplace. When you rise, you lift them, too.

About the author
Jean Yeager is a deep thinking, dry humored, spiritually-minded, and fabulously unique writer. His subject choices are often unusual and his metaphors always creative. He makes connections between things many would never think of (for example, I recall in one writing session he wrote about a “gravel pit wound”).
But best of all, he’s an incredibly likeable man. And he’s not afraid to investigate more deeply who that man is, what he thinks, and what he believes. For a few years now, he has been asking himself three simple, but difficult questions - Who am I? What do I want? Why am I here? - which were originally
offered as a prompt in a writers group. His whimsical, political, personal, funny and always profound answers to those questions are now the basis of his first published book, “Th3 Simple Questions: Slice Open Everyday Life.”
Yeager, born and raised in Texas, began writing as a teenager. He eventually got into advertising for major corporations, including McDonalds, 7-Eleven, and Coca-Cola, for which he won awards. He even wrote a film for then president Ronald Reagan.
In his mid-forties, he left the advertising business and became a consultant of socially-progressive nonprofits. He and his wife moved to Rutland in 2008 after retiring from his job as Executive Director of a nonprofit in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Now self-employed and a prolific, disciplined writer, when he moved here he was concentrating on play and screenplay writing and had several that reached the point of staged readings □ one in Massachusetts, another in Napa, Calif. And he was a semi-finalist for the Vermont Actors Repertory Theater’s Nor-Eastern Contest.
