A Strategy for Winning

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.
