From the Inside Flap
Noted consultant and professional speaker Nicki Joy has studied success for thirty years and discovered that those who win at life–no matter how you define "winning"–usually share many of the same qualities. In What Winners Do to Win!, she describes those qualities and shows you how to nurture them in yourself. Using her proven techniques for self-motivation and positive thinking, Joy will help you achieve personal success–no matter what your profession.
You are probably already familiar with some of the traits of successful people–ambition, dedication, a refusal to take "no" for an answer–but many of the qualities discussed in this book are guaranteed to surprise you. For instance, successful people often lack patience and are extremely demanding of others and themselves. However, winners use those personal qualities as positives rather than negatives. What Winners Do to Win! will teach you to do the same.
In as little as seven minutes a day, this quick, fun, and powerful program offers a lifetime’s worth of expert guidance and personal strategy for salespeople, managers, and business leaders. Joy’s prescriptive plan will help you maximize your potential and surpass your expectations, no matter how stiff the competition in work or in life. You’ll learn how winners profit from change, how they use their time wisely, and how they create trust quickly in clients, partners, and friends.
But even if you know what it takes to succeed, it’s even more important that you develop the winning attitude that all successful people possess. Knowing how to win isn’t enough if you don’t have the positive outlook and never-say-die determination to go out there every day and do what it takes to win. This book shows you how to develop that attitude. It shows you how your toughest competition may not come from others, but may indeed come from within yourself.
Peppered with positive messages, exercises, and action steps that help you stay on track and achieve your goals, What Winners Do to Win! shows you how to set the stage for success. It shows you how to work harder, and how to get others to work harder for you. It shows you how to find motivation every day and how to condition yourself to perform better tomorrow than you did today. Changing your life begins with changing your mind–and all you need is seven minutes to get started!
