"Jim takes an in-depth look into the reasons certain people succeed and others don't. He covers the key components to success - philosophy, attitude, activity, results and lifestyle." This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book really cuts to the chase and challenges you "where you live". It's an easy read at only 121 pages. However, its content is Rich. The first chapter deals with your philosophy about life. It points out the "little things" in your life, referred to as disciplines, that have a great impact on your future. Other chapters deal with your Attitude (about life and circumstance), your Activity (what are you doing to get you there), your Results (are you tracking them and making adjustments), and your Lifestyle (How we choose to live and design our lives). My favorite is the definition of Failure: Failure is nothing more than a few errors in judgement, repeated every day. Why, you ask, would someone make an error in judgement and be so foolish as to repeat it, every day? Because, they don't think it matters. A definite MUST READ, if you are interested in rescuing your life from Failure to Certain Success.

Michael Jordan has always said that one of the biggest keys to his success is focusing on the fundamentals.This is one of the best books on the fundamentals of success I have ever read. This book is extremely tight, no words are wasted. Often if we have studied personal growth for any length of time we have a fairly good idea of what the fundamentals of success are, what this book gives you is the "how", the "why", and the proper application. This book makes it all doable.Whatever stage you are at in your studies of personal growth, this book will change the quality of your life.

I had purchased many of Mr. Rohn's cassette tapes and I listened to them a thousand times. I strongly believe that he IS America's foremost business philosopher. I was wondering if I might be wasting my money by buy this book, just to hear the same message over again. On the contrary, Jim has a way of delivering and impacting with such precision, insightfulness, and profoundness, that this book will leave you in the process of change. My advice, invest $10 for your better future!

Understanding and applying Jim Rohn's "5 Pieces to the life puzzle" swept me from $45,000 per year to $15,000 per MONTH, overnight! Not through sales, not through "Multi-level marketing." Jim's wisdom was a light that went on in my life -- action in assessing my marketable skills, applying energy to my dreams, measuring my results, and charting my new directions were the results of understanding the 5 pieces to the life puzzle. A skeptic at first (as you will be), I wrote down some seemingly unrealistic goals -- and exceeded every one! Thanks, Jim, for your wisdom. Prospective readers -- do not delay even one more minute -- buy this book, and APPLY it!
