Description
This book is based on three premises: That success is not reserved for the extraordinarily gifted; it is available to anyone who will seek it with commitment and imagination; that most men and women are working nowhere near their potential, usually because they don't know how to take advantage of the opportunities around them. That advancement in business does not result from hard work alone but from the commitment of the mind.
You will not find in these pages a list of simplistic techniques, the exercising of which will make certain your advancement and wealth. Nor will you find a litany of psychological mantras guaranteed to raise your self-esteem and unleash your potential. This book will tell you that, if you set your mind to it, you can enhance your abilities, multiply your opportunities and increase your income. And it will show you how to transform your work from a daily drudgery to an exciting experience.
The subject of this book is not success in life but success in business. The second does not necessarily lead to the first but for most the second is fundamental to the first. If you are a failure at work the fallout is liable to contaminate everything else in your life and contribute not only to your own unhappiness but to the unhappiness of those close to you.
