Get Fred!

You can learn a lot from a mailman! Let Mark Sanborn, internationally acclaimed author and speaker, introduce you to Fred the postman and his remarkable way of making the ordinary extraordinary!

Everyone makes a difference. The only question at the end of the day is, What kind of difference did you make? Everything is built on relationships. It is the humanness that makes a business great, not the businessness. You must continually create value for others, and it doesn't have to cost a penny. You can replace money with imagination. The object is to outthink your competition, not to outspend them. You can reinvent yourself regularly. No matter where you live, what job you hold, or what industry you work in, you wake up every morning with a blank slate and you can make your business and your life anything you choose!

I DARE YOU! by William H. Danforth
is a Perennial Motivational Classic

FROM THE FOREWORD BY G.M. PHILPOTT

Those of us who have been associated with Mr. Danforth in business know that this Dare idea works. Practically all of the leaders in his great organization were boys who came from humble surroundings and were dared by him to high accomplishments. He has dared most by his own daring example. Mr. Danforth gives the best that is in him, whether he is guiding a great industry, traveling in a remote corner of the world, shooting ducks or playing with his grandchildren. The day ahead is always the most thrilling day in his life. The job at hand is always the most important one he has ever undertaken. He never gives less than his best.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

William H. Danforth (1870 – 1956) founded the Ralston Purina Company in St. Louis, Missouri. He co-founded the American Youth Foundation (AYF) to train young men and women in Christian ideals and help them prepare for a life of responsibility and leadership. As president of the American Youth Foundation, Mr. Danforth helped establish Camp Miniwanca, a 300-acre campsite near Shelby, Michigan that he established while he was president of AYF for the purpose of helping young people. For more than 30 years, up to the time of his death, Mr. Danforth spent his summers at Camp Miniwanca where he met, counseled and inspired thousands of young men and women. He also established the Danforth Foundation as a national educational philanthropy.

His passion for helping individuals to fulfill destiny stirred him to write I Dare You. The dominant message of the book proposes that, for an individual to be healthy, the four key components in life need to be in balance at all times—Physical, Mental, Social, and Religious.

Mission and vision—the important and compelling reasons why every organization large and small needs to have a mission and vision statement in order to lead effectively.

Strategic planning—strategic planning is absolutely critical to the long-term health of an organization. However in many cases leaders are not skilled at planning short, mid-term and long-term. Shawn shows them specifically how to plan and think strategically about the future which is a core leadership competency.

Hiring—hiring in many organizations is done very poorly, haphazardly and the track record of success is appalling. Shawn shows leaders how to interview and hire people effectively and shares a shocking concept about hiring people that they have probably never heard.

Communication—in many organizations leaders think that they are communicating effectively—but they would be wrong. The reality is most leaders think they're communicating effectively but when employees are asked they say they don't feel "in the loop" or that the communication is not effective in any way. So why is there two different versions of effective communication? This chapter will unlock the keys to effectively communicating in a leadership role.

Motivation—one of the biggest questions that Shawn gets in the classroom around the country is how can leaders motivate their employees? In this chapter he shares the inside secrets for getting the team motivated and only high levels of morale and team spirit.

Reward—too many times in too many organizations high-performing employees feel underappreciated overworked and not rewarded. In this chapter Shawn shares with them many of the myths about reward and how they can be shattered. He also shares the key strategies for rewarding people in order to impact of rewards and to increase people's perception of their rewards.

Accountability—far too many times managers are reluctant to hold employees accountable for the results of their work. In this section Shawn shares the key tools and techniques for holding people accountable for their work and for the results of their work.

Development—Shawn believes that one of the key responsibilities of a person in a leadership role is to provide employees with the development that they deserve and need. He will show leaders how to put an end to the concept of a "dead end job."

Storytelling—Shawn believes that an important competency of leadership is being able to tell stories that reinforce and help build the culture of an organization. In this section leaders will learn how to become a competent and powerful storyteller as a leader.

Authenticity—many books of late have been written about the importance of authenticity and honesty. This chapter shares with leaders the importance of being "who they are" within the framework of their organization.

In addition to covering all of these topics, each section of the book includes a "work it" section at the end of the chapter which encourages the leader to turn the concepts that they learned into action. This section allows people in a leadership role to create a plan for acting on the information that they just learned.

Leadership Gold took leadership guru John C. Maxwell a lifetime to write, and it delivers his most valuable lessons from forty years of leading.

A leader among leaders, John Maxwell promised himself early in his career that he wouldn't write this book until he was sixty. And now it's finally here. Leadership Gold took Maxwell a lifetime to write, and it delivers his most valuable lessons from forty years of leading. With his signature style, Maxwell comes alongside like a mentor, candidly taking readers through what feels like a one-on-one leadership program. Leadership Gold offers the best of the best, the tried-and-true lessons that no one but Maxwell can share.

Leadership is probably the most misunderstood word in our vocabulary today. Leadership is not personality. Leadership is not a position, nor is leadership endowed to a certain few. Leadership is that certain something that is "bought" with a price. Bought with a price that can be paid by anyone, anytime, anywhere and YOU are as much a leader today as you are going to be, because the price you are paying today is determining the leader you will be tomorrow. Everyone has an obligation as well as the privilege to lead at something. Leadership begins with a simple decision to pay the price and ends the moment you cease to pay it. The price:

Book Review by Louis Sportelli, D.C.

One of the greatest books to ever cross my path is Life Is Tremendous, by Charles "T" Jones. I have given more than 500 of these books to patients and friends because of the humorous style. It is packed with the wisdom of the ages. Life Is Tremendous allows you to laugh at yourself, pray for problems, and learn how to establish the basic fundamentals of success... as a person.

Books are the silver of the mind. If left on the shelf, they tarnish, but if read, they give your mind the glitter of new ideas and the shine of a renewed motivation to solve the challenges of life and success. When a book like Life Is Tremendous is experienced and shared, the benefits are two-fold. First, to the receiver, in new knowledge and attitude; and secondly, to the giver, in knowing they have touched a person's life.

Laughter is what Life Is Tremendous promotes, along with an inspection of one's attitude. Perhaps the best way to describe what occurs was said by Victor Hugo: "I like the laughter that opens the lips and the heart, that shows at the same time pearls of the soul."

SHAPE YOUR FUTURE

Life is attitude. The attitudes you bring (or don’t bring) to your circumstances will affect your future more than your talent, looks, or intelligence. They will shape your destiny more than your plans, your friends, or your enemies. They are more critical than your genes or your upbringing. They will fashion your prospects more than luck or even hard work ever could. They color and influence everything you do and gradually create the circumstances—whether good or bad—under which you must live and labor. Indeed, they are so important that I call them Megatudes.

Every day your attitudes either sweeten or poison all that flows through you and from you. By harnessing the power of the twelve Megatudes revealed in this book you will improve your circumstances, your career, your income, your relationships, and your happiness. Miss out on a few, and you will sentence yourself to mediocrity. Neglect them all and you are doomed to failure. But when you consciously build all twelve of them into your thought processes and behaviors, your life will change direction and set you on a course for all of the good things that life has to offer!

You can change your life with this small book. It contains the key to your success: PMA, positive mental attitude. You can achieve PMA and realize your dreams when you follow the proven principles outlined simply and clearly in this step-by-step guide.

A View of the Promised Land
In the Bible we are told that just before Moses reached the end of his life, God led him up to the top of Mount Nebo and showed the great leader the land that was going to belong to the Israelites. Before you begin this journey to take charge of your life, you, too, deserve a vision of where you are going. You are coming to the end of an old way of living and are soon to embark on a new beginning. Starting now, you will be casting off old, energy-draining, negative ways of looking at the world and replacing them with the irresistibly invigorating life that comes with a Positive Mental Attitude. Carry this image of hope with you -- the hope of what PMA will do for you. Imagine, from this day on:

You will recognize that you have a God-given creative power within you. You will develop control of your emotions so that you can always direct their creative power for your own good. You will eliminate all the negative attitudes that have resulted from your ineffective reaction to past experiences. You will overcome your fears, realizing that they have a destructive influence upon your creative power if you permit them to dominate your mind. You will picture only good things happening to you so that this creative power will be expressed only within a good and positive framework. You will stop brooding over your past failures and tragedies and stop causing them to be repeated in your life. You will direct your strongest feelings and desires toward the things you really want in life. You will never knowingly use the creative power of PMA for selfish or evil purposes, knowing that the misuse of it can cause it to destroy you and all that you value.

Attaining these benefits (your birthright as a human being) will be your goal from this day on. Nothing can stop you, and the only resource you need is your own commitment to making it happen.

"This book belongs in your personal development library!"
-- Dr. Joe Vitale, bestselling author

This book will allow you to increase your productivity in virtually any area of your life -- but not the way you might think. You won't find a success "blueprint" in this book; you will get one great insight after another that will stimulate your mind to think in new ways that will cause you to say "ah ha!" as you suddenly create your own "blueprint".

For the last decade, Vincent Harris has been a performance coach and mentor to CEOs, athletes, and people who want more out of life. The Productivity Epiphany was written to stir your mind, and to pull forth the resources that will help you to:

• Persuade yourself and others to take action
• Experience more happiness
• Create stronger relationships
• Get more accomplished in less time
• And much, much more!

Selling is the art of convincing people to your way of thinking, and it is not just isolated to products or services. It is also related to ideas. As master communicator Brian Dodge once said, "For those of you who have children, if you ain't selling them, someone else is." The Sales Messenger is especially beneficial to sales professionals, but it is also a practical, informative book that can benefit anyone—because everybody is selling something in one form or another. Whether you are trying to sell a product or service for your company, or even if you are just "selling" your husband or wife on the idea or concept of relocating to a new state, at some point and time you are selling. You might also be selling yourself in a job interview, selling your children on the concept of doing the right thing, or as a campaign manager you might be helping to sell a political candidate. This book will help you gain the basic knowledge and improve the skills necessary to become more effective at selling any idea, product or service. The Sales Messenger is a back-to-the-basics guide with engaging chapters containing helpful assignments that reinforce its critical concepts.

Are you on the cutting edge for sales success?

Whether purchasing copy machines or purchasing real estate, millions of consumers worldwide are using cutting-edge technology to influence buying decisions more than ever before. Historically, the salesperson's function was to deliver information on a face-to-face basis. With the rise of the transactional buyer, it is more important than ever to provide the customers with information through their preferred form. Second Nature Selling will help you balance the use of timeless relationship-building strategies combined with modern transactional buying technologies for maximum sales success.

Since the advent of the Internet there has been an accelerated growth of transactional buyers who utilize modern technology and have little interest in dealing with salespeople. With no salesperson to guide the process, the transactional buyer can independently make huge mistakes. This leaves the transactional buyer vulnerable to misinformation on the Web. This is an opportunity for the second nature salesperson to provide important information—but only if that information is provided in a format the buyer will respect and use. Second Nature Selling answers the question of how to effectively deal with this new class of buyer.

So what is second nature selling? Why is it different from other selling systems you have been taught? Why does it work? First, it is not a system; there are no sequential steps to perform the perfect sale. This book shares basic elements with you and shows you how to use them in creating your own sales personality. Highly successful salespeople apply these elements automatically, almost instinctively. In addition to discovering why traditional sales methodologies are becoming obsolete, you will learn how to transform you personality, how to always seek action, how to be a problem solver, how to create helpful presentations, how to develop a valuable network, how to properly focus on product knowledge, and how to effectively use technology and develop a thorough and accurate website—an absolute necessity in the professional sales process.

Treat Your Employees Like... Dogs?!?!

If you are a pack leader, you'll be able to get the maximum potential from each and every employee each and every time.

Even if you are merely the pup of the group, what you'll learn will help you to leap over obstacles and advance your way to the top.

"This book offers a refreshing and much-needed how-to approach to finding, keeping, and advancing one's career. The 12 Essential Laws for Becoming Indispensable is an essential source of proven methodologies, skills, and attitudes."

--James R. Bavis, VP Corporate Employees Relations, Sprint.

The Twelve Immutable Laws of Humor will improve your public speaking skills and help you get your point across in any situation. With 100 jokes, it is also fun to read!

Law Number 1: The Law of Abandonment says a funny story should be told with reckless abandon. If you appear to be unsure if your joke is funny, your audience will be sure that it is not. Go out on a limb and saw it off.

Law number 2: The Law of Inflation says that a joke should build as a balloon is blown up, and the punchline should be delivered suddenly as a balloon is popped. Furthermore, experience shows that the best jokes take 3 "breathes." Rarely do jokes have 2 or 4 ... it is usually 3. Three is the magic number to build the tension before the balloon is popped.

Law Number 3: The Law of Prompting says that audiences laugh when told to laugh. Two frequently employed prompts used by comedians such as David Lettermen are raising the eyebrows, and holding forth upturned palms. Watch his delivery, and you will see he always queues the audience with a prompt just before delivering the punchline.

Law Number 4: The Law of Deflation says that the punchline should be delivered as quickly and concisely as possible. Long punchlines rarely work. Punchlines can also be broken into smaller pieces, allowing the audience to get the joke before you have finished the punchline, and complete the joke while they are laughing.

You'll have to read the book to find out the others!

Red Stevens owned everything a man could ask for and gave his family a piece of that everything. However, right before he died, Red realized one thing. Looking down along the long list of things he had given his family, he suddenly came to the conclusion that in giving them everything, he had given them nothing. While most of his family were lost causes because of his mistake, one still stood out with potential to learn. That one was in store for the year to end all years. That one was his great nephew, Jason.

The Ultimate Gift takes the reader through Jason's incredible work to gain his Uncle Red's inheritance, the ultimate gift.

Every step of the way there is a lesson for Jason and the reader. Things such as values, hard work, the appreciation for money, and the love of giving are taught to Jason. Uncle Red hits a homerun when he teaches Jason the most important lesson of all:

Red paused (in the video) for another brief moment, cleared his throat, and began again. "Jason, I lived my life in a big way. I had a lot of big accomplishments, and I made a lot of big mistakes. One of the biggest mistakes I ever made was when I gave everyone in our family everything that they thought they ever wanted. It took me many years to figure out that everything we'll ever do, know or have in this life is a gift from the good Lord. He has a special plan for each of us, and He has provided everything we need to fulfill that plan. I spent many years trying to achieve happiness or buy it for friends and family. Only as an old man did I come to learn that all happiness comes from gifts that God has given us. Unfortunately, the money and possessions I spread around didn't help people to understand the gifts that have been provided for us. In trying to make up for all the times I wasn't there, I gave them all material things. In doing so, I robbed them of everything that made my life wonderful.

The Ultimate Gift will entertain, teach and touch you as you read about Jason's journey to receive his inheritance, the ultimate gift!

A novel by the author of The Ultimate Gift!

Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there was an enchanted kingdom ruled by a benevolent and much-loved king who, through his uncommon wisdom and insight, led his people through many difficult times to a period of peace, prosperity and happiness such as the kingdom had never known.

Now, nearing the end of his reign, the king contemplates his legacy. What would be a fitting memorial to his time on the throne? A monument to rival the pyramids of Egypt? A gold coin bearing his likeness? A colossal statue carved in his image? No. Such an enlightened ruler would choose a very different kind of memorial...

From the far corners of the realm, ordinary citizens are invited to the Throne Room to express the greatest wisdom that life has taught them. Farmers and physicians, hunters and historians, jesters and judges -- all come before the monarch. From the wisdom that they share, the king will select that one bit that surpasses all the others, wisdom that will be passed around the world, wisdom that will benefit all people from all lands, forever: The Wisdom of the Ages.

But as the king hears from more and more of his subjects, he becomes worried and restless. From so much profound and wonderful wisdom, how will he discern the Wisdom of the Ages? How will he know when he has found it? The answer comes in a form that no one, from the king to the lowliest peasant, could expect, for the greatest wisdom comes from the most unexpected of places...

Book Review by Dr. Louis Sportelli

I picked up Wisdom of the Ages and could not put it down until the last page was read.

How wonderful to read such sage advice written with the simplicity of youth and the wisdom of the aged. How refreshing to read a book that in its very simplicity lies the complexity of the universe.

The book was a breath of fresh air in the complicated world we live in today. It is a testimony to simplicity and the avalanche of technology that has given way to empty promises, unrealistic promises and promises that will compromise ones values and beliefs.

This book is so wonderful in its message and so meaningful in its insight that it should be a must read for every person who wants to shed the burden ot trying to find meaning in complexity and emerge with a greater understanding because of the essence of the message of this book.

Ziglar draws from his fundamental selling experiences and shows that while the basics of selling may remain constant, we, as sales people, may not! He says we must continue our pilgrimage "by learning, living and looking; learning from the past without living there; living in the present by seizing each vital moment of every single day; and looking to the future with hope, optimism and education."

About now you are probably asking yourself. "Why do I want another sales book from Zig Ziglar?"

The answer? Because the sales profession and sales procedures are growing and changing at a dramatic pace. To keep up with this pace, as well as get ahead, you need the techniques found in Ziglar on Selling.
