The Achievement Habit
Stop Wishing, Start Doing, and Take Command of Your Life
Editorial Review
Whenever anyone makes an important change, it’s because a switch has flipped. Someone who has struggled his whole life with his weight finally decide to get fit. Someone who has put up with an abusive boss for years finally has enough and quits. A shift has happened that has made action favorable to inaction. You can sit around in the dark waiting for the light to come on, or you can get up, walk across the room, and flip the switch yourself.
