Work, for most, has become a daily grind instead of an
expression of our unique and compelling skills and attributes.
As of this moment, let us both agree that this is
unacceptable! I wrote this book to help you identify and
obtain the career of your dreams, the one that you want and
the one that, more importantly, you deserve.
Why not you?
I propose that 80% of your success will be a result of getting in
touch with your authentic
self
(understanding who you really
are and what you truly want) and that the remaining 20% is
simply a function of tools; teaching you how to get there by
either empowering you to get off your butt and start your
own venture, join a new organization, or simply improve your
status with your existing employer.
Regardless of your career goal, I am delighted that you have
accepted the challenge to improve your status and I’d like to
congratulate you on making the best investment you can
make . . . an investment in yourself! You have now begun a
process that will change the scope of your life forever, for the
better. In the information to follow,
you are going to learn the
formula for what separates those who have found their
career calling from those that remain professionally unfulfilled
.
And believe me, career success stories leave clues!
