"UPGRADE" is such a powerful word...,
By
This review is from: Upgrade: Proven Strategies for Dramatically Increasing Personal and (Paperback)
Ever since reading Mark Sanborn's book "UPGRADE!: Proven Strategies for Dramatically Increasing Personal and Professional Success," I have been enamored with the word, "upgrade." UPGRADE! What a positive word! I have used the term weakness, area for improvement, do differently etc., but what a powerful, positive way to look at buffing up your skills, attitude, behaviors and performance. Mark does a superb job giving lots of tips and techniques to inspire you to reach new levels of success. In this book, he: Confirms things you already know Challenges you to continue doing those things you have done, but for some reason or another, you have stopped doing Reframes issues so you may see things from a different perspective Provides great insight into things you never even dreamed of! For example, I have always considered writing a journal, logbook, diary or some way of chronicling my adventures. I never like what I write, so I stop writing. Mark says "Many of the most successful and creative people I know keep a journal. While some may record the events of each day, the majority are jotting down their insights, reflections and information. More powerful than just keeping a journal, I've found, is periodically reviewing one's journal to reinforce the important things one has experienced and learned." The Upgrade? I now keep a journal of important things that I have experienced and learned. For me, it's very focused. It's full of bullets and pictures rather than stream-of-consciousness. It's meaningful in hindsight as well as in the writing.
