Inner
Excellence at Work
The Path to Meaning,Spirit
and Success
By Carol M. Osborn
P 1,225.00
To
get ahead in life,
you simply have to
work long and hard,
right? After all,
hard work is the foundation
of the American dream.
But these days people
are discovering that
working harder - and
even smarter - doesn't
guarantee the dream
will come true, and
that by sacrificing
their personal needs
and desires to ambition
and success, they've
taken the meaning
and joy out of both
their personal lives
and their work.
If
this sounds familiar
to you - if you've
been fueled by ambition,
single-mindedly pursuing
success, and wondering
why you feel so empty
- Inner Excellence
at Work is just what
you need.
Based
on author Carol Osborn's
highly acclaimed and
successful teachings
about spirituality
and success, Inner
Excellence at Work
provides an enlightened
approach to career
and life management.
According to Osborn,
success need not vie
with your deeply held
principles and quality-of-life
desires - in fact,
by being true to those
instincts, you can
achieve your greatest
success ever (while
working less !).

Getting
What You Want
The 7 Principles of
Rational Living
By Robert J. Ringer
P 1,200.00
In
this book, author
Robert Ringer offers
a thinking person's
guide to success in
any and all areas
of life. While we
should not achieve
our goals at anyone's
expense, Ringer believes
we have a moral right
to act in our best
interests over the
long term - provided
we don't commit aggression
against others. In
our often wildly irrational
world, which advocates
quick fixes, bending
the rules, and skewing
the truth to the needs
of the moment, Ringer
has found that the
path to long-term
happiness lies in
the creation and defense
of personal values.
He explains how to
get what you want
- be it love, career
advancement, or respect
- by adopting seven
principles of a rational
lifestyle.
- Base
your actions on
truth
- Focus
on values, not
entitlements
- Make
choices with civility,
dignity, honesty
and humility
- Avoid
those who drain
your personal
resources
- Rid
your self of major
encumbrances
- Develop
the self-discipline
to act on intellect,
not on impulse
Learn
from bad breaks and
move on
Enlightening, straightforward,
and candid, this book
is not for people
looking for banal
formulas. If, however,
you are tired of soggy
self-help sympathy
and are ready to take
responsibility for
your own future, this
book offers a galvanizing
message of independence.
