synchronicity, indeed!
here is a light read with a heavy dose of motivation! if you are down about having resigned yourself to a life of mediocrity, mr. garcia has crafted just the pep talk you need. replete with apt anecdotes and real-life success stories, the book inspires you to greatness and a life of deliberate action.

"yes, you can succeed" fortuitously appeared in my life just as i was reevaluating my future. i gave a copy of the book to a friend wrestling with similar issues. if you are ready to start turning your dreams into reality, you should get yourself a copy, as well.

Access To Success Made Easy: A Step by Step Approach
I have read this book, I have registered with the on-line resources and I have shared copies of this book with family members. I can truly recommend this book to anyone who has high aspirations in life and is uncertain as to how to go about making them a reality. . Regardless of your race, gender, ethnicity, educational achievement; you can benefit from this book.

But don't buy this book if you are just curious about how a successful CEO made it big or if you are looking for a "how-to-book" describing a few simple tips to improve what you currently do. Buy this book if you intend to put to practice what Charles P. Garcia describes in it. Buy this book if you have made a commitment to your dreams and aspirations to succeed. Buy this book if you have a burning desire to achieve your potential and have the drive and commitment to stick to it until you succeed!

Yes, this book describes a step-by-step principled based process you can use to achieve; but it's more than that. Yes, Mr. Garcia outlines a process you can use to succeed in clear steps: "Success Beliefs" and "Success Strategies"; but that's not all. Yes the author describes a process of success using humorous personal stories and does these things while inspiring. Mr. Garcia's message, that everyone can succeed, is as evocative to us all as the American Dream has been to countless numbers of immigrants. With a plan, and determination we all can make it!

Finally, I also liked this book for the many useful references it provides and the free on-line resources. Readers who seek to expand their understanding of any of the many useful points made by the author will have easy access to the respective sources. Readers who don't have time to read 200 best sellers will find a distillation of them therein. The free online resources provide are an excellent compliment to the concepts presented by the author and a great way for readers to stick to their plans.

Juggling Work/Life/Success
This book does a good job helping you prioritize your relationship between work, success, family and personal growth, with clear & concrete advice. Like most books of this type, it suffers from the vacuum effect--advice as textbook. But it is inspirational and helpful. Coming from a completely different angle, I love how author Bruce Stockler discusses the way he shifted his priorities--work, marriage, kids--in "I Sleep At Red Lights: A True Story of Life After Triplets." Very inspirational, but a humorous memoir, not a self-help book.
