Publisher's Synopsis

The author of this book, Wess Roberts PhD, accepts neither fame nor fortune as a sign of success. Rather he tells us what matters is how well we measure up to our own individual talents and abilities. This book offers advice on finding success by looking at the current processes used to evaluate success, mainly based on comparison. It argues that the comparison approach works against success and instead argues for personal goal setting and non-comparison.;Each of the chapters in this book features the life story of a real achiever, showing the reader how to break through false barriers and the report-card mentality that often tends to hold people back. This book offers advice on how to choose the right career, conquer fear, overcome weakness, avoid false pride, prepare for problems, eliminate greed and envy, learn from experience, set realistic goals and share your talents. Wess Roberts is the author of "Leadership Secrets of Attila the Hun", "Your Erroneous Zones" and "Pulling Your Own Strings".
