This bascially is all you need to know to succeed!
I am commenting on this book because the three previous comments indicate that the readers are not aware that each person is responsible for his/her outcomes. The message of this booklet and those in the know is:"YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE" for your own success. This is the message of today. My opinion is that everybody should realize that the 13 rules for job success are and always have been the keys to progress and success. If every person understood the message of this booklet we wouldn't have so many people who don't realize that every human being needs the satisfaction of achievement and accomplishment. This can only be obtained by working, thinking, studying, reading, helping, etc. When we don't get the satisfaction of achievemenet and accomplishment we turn to watching television, drinking alcohol, smoking, taking drugs, etc.

Recreating Your Job
As a manager in a highly competitive service industry, I could not deliver a better message to my staff than this short, highly readable "who's in charge of your life" script for the entrepeneur in all of us.Adaptability, accountability, and the pure joy of realizing your version of yourself in this age of the "chaos theory" is in there. A fun, inspiring, recharging read.

A good example of a book that should be burned¿.
Let's cut to the chase. The message of this book is quite simple:
Change your current attitude and increase your productivity so that you will ad value to your company in the long run. In other words, all for the benefit of us (managers, CEOs, Bill Gates, etc.) at the expense of you, the employee (the tried and true 'profits over people' mentality rears its ugly head once again in corporate America). If the events of September 11 or the recent Enron affair haven't yet taught us that money and misguided "motivation" should NOT be the primary goals in life, I don't know what will. Similar Products
