While it is often said that a person with a negative attitude cannot be
helped, it is also true that a person with a positive attitude cannot be
stopped. Life is an obstacle course in which we can often become our own
biggest obstacle, but a positive attitude can be transformational.
In one sense, this book is a road map for a life journey in achieving
more. It offers direction and can help you make positive decisions in a
noisy and cluttered environment. Success is neither a miracle nor a
mystery. It is the natural outcome of consistently applying certain
principles on an ongoing basis. Success does not depend upon special
skills, formal education or superior intelligence. Success is a matter
of understanding and acting upon principles that have been in existence
for centuries. These principles may be simple in themselves but none of
them will work unless they are put into firm and decisive action.
This book effectively teaches not only the principles of success but
also how to avoid expensive and demoralising mistakes. The principles
themselves are universal, cutting across country, culture and religion.
Diligently practising them will help you develop confidence and allow
your life to become more meaningful and rewarding. Applying these
principles may require a lot of self-discipline and commitment but, once
learned and applied, the results can be rewarding and gratifying.
If you want to be successful and happy, then become a student and study
the life of successful people in depth; if you want to become wealthy,
then study the principles of acquiring wealth. Learning to make a living
and learning to live are two different things. This book helps you
design a more meaningful life, by making positive choices and avoiding
the most common pitfalls.
Acquiring facts is knowledge; interpreting facts is understanding;
and the proper application of facts is wisdom. This book by Shiv Khera
is designed to help you create an action plan to optimize your
potential - in other words, to achieve more.
