{"product_id":"2940016328874","title":"GO FOR THE GOLD - How to Achieve Meaningful and Lasting Success","description":"GO FOR THE GOLD is a \"powerhouse\" book that will inspire you, your colleagues and your organization to make SUCCESS your gold standard. \u003cbr\u003eThis is the 26th book by bestselling author, Eric Harvey-a leading expert in personal achievement and organizational success. GO FOR THE GOLD is designed to help individuals and organizations achieve meaningful and lasting success.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the author: \u003cbr\u003eThe foundation of this book for me began many years ago when I was being discharged from the military. I had served in Army Air Defense and was about to be released -- and back to college to finish my degree. In a final transition meeting with my commanding officer, he told me how proud he was of my service (which meant a lot to me) and then he asked me some simple, yet extremely profound questions about my life plans. The conversation went something like this:\u003cbr\u003eHim: So ... what are you looking for in life?\u003cbr\u003eMe: To be happy and successful.\u003cbr\u003eHim: And what does happiness and success mean to you?\u003cbr\u003eMe: Have a good job and a great career.\u003cbr\u003eHim: Is that it?\u003cbr\u003eMe: No ... I want a successful personal life as well.\u003cbr\u003eHim: So, what will it take to make that happen?\u003cbr\u003eMe: A lot of hard work and a little luck.\u003cbr\u003eHim: IS THAT ALL?\u003cbr\u003eHis last question stumped me a bit. I'm not even sure how I answered it that day, but I do clearly remember that it got me really thinking and wondering ... What does it take to achieve meaningful and lasting success? \u003cbr\u003eFor the past thirty-plus years in my professional life, I've had the good fortune of working with hundreds of organizations, worldwide, and thousands of the people who comprise them--\u003cbr\u003eranging from the \"horribles\" to the \"best of the best.\" I've also studied politicians, sports icons, famous public figures, as well as personal friends and colleagues. Not everyone, of course,but many of those I've studied have achieved meaningful success, are admired, and have become role models for us all. So what did I learn from a lifetime of observation and analysis?\u003cbr\u003eTwo primary lessons which have been profound for me and hopefully will prove invaluable for you:\u003cbr\u003e1. Success isn't determined by who you are, it's built by what you DO.\u003cbr\u003eAnd\u003cbr\u003e2. Truly successful people all DO the same things: They SHOW UP, They SUIT UP, They GO FOR THE GOLD.\u003cbr\u003eExplaining and examining those behaviors - the action components of success -- is what GO FOR THE GOLD is all about. As you read, you'll examine the importance of Showing Up and always \"being there\" -- in each moment you have and for every situation you face. You'll understand the importance of Suiting Up for success and being ready to take advantage of every opportunity you are presented with.\u003cbr\u003eAnd then you'll discover the true meaning of \"Gold\" - how it relates to all aspects of your professional and personal life, and how you can attain success for yourself and others.\u003cbr\u003eMy hope is that the messages in this book are both inspiring and guiding for you and others. Please accept them, absorb them, and most importantly APPLY them and they will lead you to higher levels of happiness and achievement. I've discovered that meaningful and lasting success is neither elusive nor fleeting -- it's available and it's fully attainable.Your GOLD is out there waiting for you to discover it and enjoy all the \"riches\" it brings. All you need is a treasure map to guide you on this journey.\u003cbr\u003eThis book is your map!
