Overachievement by John Eliot, Ph.D. Buy book: $15.72
Mixing scientific insights with real-world stories of people who achieved more than they ever thought possible, this powerful book will help readers achieve consistent success on the job, on the playing field, or in any stressful situation.
The book Overachievement from what I have read so far focuses my attention on goal setting in order to become an "Overachiever".
I am sure that after I read another section of this book I will purchase it and use it to
my advantage.
I can't decide if this guy is an "arrogant SOB" trying to justify his attitude toward the world, or if he's just being overly combative in laying out some reasonable assertions.
I sure hope it's the latter. I cringe at the thought of a society believing they have to be social misfits to succeed. Take Payton Manning, for example; he strikes me as a very competent and confident leader, but not an "arrogant SOB."
Hmm. Don't think I'll follow up on this book, but it does provide for some interesting thinking.
I loved these entries. At the 2nd day I forwarded it to two business associates who are also in the midst of a start up business.
We're the ones who capital to begin is low, and I work a part time job I dislike, others that pay little, to fund every penny into a business that I believe in passionately. My friend is one who has had the "angel investors" and after two years it do I pack up my dream or just do it differently? I say go for it. What does one have to lose? My resume shows a college degree from years ago, and the "correct" amount of jobs in proper time frames. What it doesn't show are the many that I grew bored with, took to learn what I needed and moved on. So if I waited until I had the money, the investors, etc. And another two years passed where I had to drag myself to the one part time job or another full time one that I detested..Would it be worth it?
Nope, not for me.
I tried in two links to order this book. The links lead me to can't find web site.
But I will wait until it works, because you dearreader led me to this person. Can you fix the link?
