HOPE FOR THE WORLD, subtitled "A Christian Looks At World Religions," is anchored to the September 11, 2001 attacks on America. It presents a synopsis of the major religions: Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism and Confucianism. It points out the obvious differences of the religions, but the major portion of the book deals with the religions' parallel principles regarding how one should conduct his or her life.

At the request of business groups, sports teams and individuals with whom motivational speaker Carl Mays has worked, he compiled a unique book. It contains original maxims, verses, poster material and other thoughts he has devised in his work through the years. Each page is complete within itself. For example, one page reads: "In the history of the world, there has been only one you... If you don't develop what you have, the world will never experience an individual who can do exactly what you can do, the way you can do it. The victories, completeness, success and lifestyle that you can achieve are only for you..." The book is divided into nine categories: Appreciate Who You Are; Develop A Winning Attitude; Be Creative; Don't Fear Failure; Clarify Your Values; Set Goals; Visualize Success; Appreciate Other People; Do It Now!

In the Foreword, sports and TV personality Lou Holtz writes, "I recommend Carl Mays' A STRATEGY FOR WINNING to anyone who has a burning desire to improve his or her life. If you do not have a burning desire, this book can light your fire." This is a how-to book that guides the reader on how to be more efficient and productive, and how to enjoy life more. It deals with winning in business, sports, family and life. A chapter is devoted to each of the following principles: (1) Accept your own self-worth (2) Develop and maintain a winning attitude (3) Learn to be creative (4) Build on failure (5) Clarify your values (6) Set goals (7) Visualize (8) Appreciate other people and (9) Do it now! We all have abilities we can tap, powers we can use - but sometimes we don't know how or where to begin. That's where A STRATEGY FOR WINNING comes in. Combining the nine principles with anecdotes and case studies, Carl Mays weaves an entertaining and compelling guide for people who are already successful in some areas, encouraging them on to higher ground. At the same time, he gives step-by-step advice to those who have yet to realize even a small portion of their potentials. Mays shares true stories of people who have overcome adversity to taste the sweetness of success and, importantly, how the reader can do the same.

Personal Transformation

In this attractively illustrated and concisely packed book, leadership is presented as both an art and a science. Skillfully, Carl Mays uses various parts of the body to present a unique, practical approach to leadership. There are different roads that lead to success as a leader. But regardless of your path or style, Carl Mays emphasizes that truly successful leaders have (1) A Heart that enables you to recognize your own qualities and the qualities of others; (2) A Backbone that is strong and supportive, yet flexible; (3) Muscles that provide energy, perseverance, and health; (4) Hands to help others and to write out your goals; (5) Shoulders that can carry the burden of responsibility; (6) A Brain that possesses limitless creativity and potential; (7) Eyes that can visualize goals and possibilities; (8) Ears that listen to your conscience and to new ideas; (9) A Mouth that vocalizes thoughts and gives compliments; (10) Feet that carry you on the road to success. Carl Mays supports his anatomical comparisons with examples and stories of successful leaders in business, sports, family, and life. According to Mays, "The real challenge and the real reward is to take who you are and what you are capable of doing, and create the means to achieve your dreams."
