How do you create your own definition of success--and reach your
unique potential?
Building a fulfilling life and career can be a daunting challenge. It
takes courage and hard work. Too often, we charge down a path leading to
"success" as defined by those around us--and ultimately, are left
feeling dissatisfied.
Each of us is unique and brings distinctive skills and qualities to any
situation. So why is it that most of us fail to spend sufficient time
learning to understand ourselves and creating our own definition of
success? The truth is, it can seem so natural and so much easier to just
do what everyone else is doing--for now--leaving it for later to develop
our best selves and figure out our own unique path. Is there a road map
that will enable you to defy conventional wisdom, resist peer pressure,
and carve out a path that fits your unique skills and passions?
Robert Steven Kaplan, leadership expert and author of the highly
successful book What to Ask the Person in the Mirror, regularly
advises executives and students on how to tackle these questions. In
this indispensable new book, Kaplan shares a specific and actionable
approach to defining your own success and reaching your potential.
Drawing on his years of experience, Kaplan proposes an integrated plan
for identifying and achieving your goals. He outlines specific steps and
exercises to help you understand yourself more deeply, take control of
your career, and build your capabilities in a way that fits your
passions and aspirations.
Are you doing what you're really meant to do? If you're ready to face
this question, this book can help you change your life.
