Next to food and clothing, achieving personal and professional
success is rated at the very top of the hierarchical order of human
needs. Everybody wants to be somebody! In this ultimate success
book that includes timeless information for generations to come,
the author has meticulously chronicled proven skills, strategies
and secrets that, if regularly followed, will empower the reader to
live the life that they imagine. Just like your car's or phone's
GPS, these life navigation skills can get you from where you are to
where you want to go in your career. In addition, critically
important knowledge and abilities, including job interviewing,
must-know people skills, writing, and public speaking, are covered.
In this book, the author has scoured the world's literature on
these topics and interviewed highly successful people to provide
one-stop shopping regarding the most proven and practical
recommendations for future career success. He has also peppered the
text with personal experiences and motivational/inspirational
success stories, as well as testimonials/sage advice/quotes from
the world's most successful people --past and present. The key
objectives of this book are to: Highlight the foundational factors
underlying future career success: love what you do; realize that
your behaviors largely determine your luck in life; emphasize that
highly successful people take 100% responsibility for their actions
and destiny; and that the secret to success involves the selfless
serving of others. The rewards return-through a boomerang effect.
Provide specific examples and inspirational stories highlighting 10
critical behavioral skills for success. These include: look for the
good in people and situations; how to activate the law of
attraction; establish goals in writing ("if it's not on paper, it's
vapor"); take action (#1 success characteristic); know that
persistence pays; ask for things you want; enhance your speaking,
writing, and interviewing skills; why it's important to work with
and learn from people you want to emulate; the essence of superb
people skills (e.g., integrity, making others feel important); and
to regularly apply the law of sow and reap. Detail complementary
approaches, tactics, and perspectives that can help you achieve
your breakthrough (major) life goals. These include: time
management skills and the 80/20 rule; looking for greener pastures;
showcasing your talents (visibility opportunities); committing to
never-ending improvements in performance, service (or products);
embracing discipline/focus/sacrifice; routinely exceeding people's
expectations; striving for greater rewards; and seeing an ocean of
opportunities before you. In aggregate, these yield BIG rewards in
life. Provide a potpourri of related topics, including unlooked-for
opportunities; leadership and bringing out the best in those around
you; avoiding overcautiousness; volunteering (raising your hand);
reframing future commitments; the power (and magic) of an
unexpected thank you note; and the disproportionate dividends and
good karma that result from giving back and mentoring others.
