Book Description

Publication Date: August 1, 2008

Success isn't a matter of luck or fate. Nor is it entirely a matter of intelligence or talent. Take two similar people and give each of them the same opportunity. One achieves remarkable success; the other little or nothing. Why? Because, winners understand how to harness the power of desire and discipline to achieve outstanding results! Success rarely comes from one magnificent breakthrough. Instead it's crafted by seemingly insignificant acts repeatedly performed in the "nooks and crannies" of daily life. If you're looking for that slight edge to accomplish a long-held dream or push you up the ladder to success, this book is for you! How Bad Do You REALLY Want It? spells out twenty-one simple, powerful, time-proven principles designed to help you get from where you are to where you want to be in all areas of your life. These principles have been used by the most successful people throughout history. They worked for them and they will work for you!

This review is from: How Bad Do You REALLY Want It?: Getting From Where You Are To Where You Want To Be (Hardcover)

In his new book "How Bad Do You Really Want It?" Tom Massey introduces twenty-one success principles essential to getting the reader from where they are to where they want to be.

The book is designed in a way that engages the reader from the introduction to the conclusion. After a cursory read through I am now eager to assimilate the material by working through the "Take Away" sections, which provide antidotes, short stories, and quotes, with activities and questions that will help me to put into practice the principle covered in each chapter. Take away ideas on "Refreezing" my mental programming, as well as the exercises on "Taking Action" took on personal significance to me.

I found myself looking forward to the "Shadowbox" story at the end of each chapter. These stories encapsulate and powerfully affirm a principle of success and inspired me to build a whole new set of personal disciplines to help me take action to accomplish my dreams.

Tom Massey models the principles he writes about through a multifaceted successful career in corporate business, as an internationally known corporate trainer, and in the field of personal development.

"How Bad Do You Really Want It?" is Tom Massey at his best. Powerful, practical, and inspiring.
