Kyle, focused on wealth and his elite bike building company, pursues external measures of success and it's never enough to satisfy him. It is unique in that we see the impact of his choices that he is yet to see, and helps us understand the power of our own interpretations and communication. The story allows us to take the time to look inside ourselves, face our fears, and see how simple adjustments can enhance and/or clarify what is most important to each of us.
