Stuff Happens reads as though you are listening to one of John Alston's great motivational speeches.John is with you: coaching, counseling, mentoring, challenging and pushing while equipping you to get moving.Lost your job? Great! Now you have time to invest in your future. You can do what you have always wanted to do: start a business, find a new love, write a book.The unexpected provides opportunities. John helps you to recognize the opportunities and prompts you to take advantage of them. He uses stories to illustrate his points just as he does in his speeches. Highly recommended.--Dan Poynter, ParaPublishing.com

"Stuff Happens" is the perfect book for these times. Whenthere is so much uncertainty and anxiety in the world this message relates a sense that things do work out and we're not alone with our issues.

I read this book on a plane to Tucson. Loved It! Wish I had had a guide like this 57 years ago when I started Northwestern University! It also occurred to me that "Stuff Happens" will make a great text for training the 50 sales persons in our four "La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries" We spend a lot of time on product knowledge and sales techniques. "Stuff Happens" with its wonderful natural breaks to "make a list" or "walk around the room" and its clear summary of each point, will be an ideal text to follow to help get across the kind of attitude we expect from our sales force in handling all the "Stuff" that happens on a retail floor.

I bought this book on a whim and was surprised to find a book filled with great motivational advice. It really coached me in dealing with issues at work and at home without sounding corny. A really fun, easy read.

Stuff Happens (and then you fix it!) is an engaging inspirational book that will help you deal with life's rough spots and teach you how to turn them into positive, personal growth opportunities.The 9 Reality Rules that Alston and Thaxton present to the reader are easy to understand and filled with so much insight and truth. This book is a must-read for anyone who has had tough times in their life. It will motivate you and inspire you to think in a new way!
