Success Intelligence
Essential Lessons and Practices from the World's Leading Coaching Program on Authentic Success
Editorial Review
There are so many apparently intelligent people chasing success in the most foolhardy manner. They are manic, hyper and busy to the point of distraction. They might have gotten A’s for effort, but not for intelligence. We live in a “Success Culture”. Many people pursue success as a primary goal in life and are often obsessed with it. They judge their entire lives on whether or not they’re a success. They secretly attack themselves for not being successful enough. But how much success is enough?

People are chasing success, but they have no real vision of what it really is. The more successes they achieve, the more they begin to wonder about the nature of true success.
Success is not a race; it is a journey. Success is not an achievement; it is a discovery. The primary task, then, is to create a vision for success – one that engages your whole being.

In the world’s biggest companies, you can see how the obsessive need to be first to market (a “first move” in corporate-speak) has almost bankrupted them. Many ambitious entrepreneurs’ obsession with quick profits and fast results has cost them their health, their money and their happiness.

“True success is about growing your awareness of who you are and what your strengths are. It is also about placing your faith and your power in what will help you to grow beyond the mistakes, failures and setbacks you encounter by seeing them as opportunities, not blocks.
