Product Description

Growth is a fundamental human need, a desire that stems from a deep love of life and an urge to experience it fully. It is at the root of everything that gives us a feeling of accomplishment, satisfaction, meaning and progress. Yet, many people find their growth stalled at some point, and they’re not sure how to move on. They know they don’t want to keep doing more of the same, but they’re not sure how to break the pattern and take the next step.

In The Laws of Lifetime Growth, Dan Sullivan and Catherine Nomura offer ten simple laws that everyone can use to maintain a fresh, innovative perspective on their lives and the world around them.

Through vivid real-life stories, Sullivan and Nomura illustrate each of the ten laws and show how with just a slight shift in thinking—regardless of your age, income, or position—you can put them into action. They also examine common pitfalls and detail practical strategies for getting past such obstacles. Once you start to integrate these laws into your life, you’ll never outgrow them, they’ll never become obsolete, and they will continue to lead you to greater happiness and fulfillment.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Powerful book that is both Accessible and Practical, March 26, 2006

By	David J. Singer - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've read tons of personal development books. When the authors of those books cite their experiences as consultants to Fortune 500 companies and their CEOs, I can't relate. In their clear, helpful, and powerful book, The Laws of Lifetime Growth, authors Sullivan and Nomura impart useful wisdom, while using examples about real people I can relate to, with every day stories. It was a quick, easy read, and I've already shared it with a bunch of friends, and put into effect several of the book's excellent suggestions. Buy this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars This book will instantly increase your confidence and provide you with tremendous direction and focus., February 13, 2006

By	Joseph J. Janiczek "Author of How to Achieve ... (Greenwood Village, Colorado) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

One of the simplest ways to break free of the complexity in our fast changing world is to have guiding "generalized principals" that are always true. These principals become huge strategic advantages for anyone who learns and applies them. Dan Sullivan's genius is that he and his able co-author (Catherine Nomura) provide a simple priority of laws to live by that will enhance anyones life. Equally as important, these laws provide great guidance on avoiding many of the traps and dead-ends that cause stagnation or depletion. After reading this book you will wish you understood these laws earlier in life...but will be very glad you learned them for the rest of your life. -- Joseph J. Janiczek, Author of How to Achieve Absolute Financial Freedom

5.0 out of 5 stars Growing happy: How to exercise your attitude and love your life and work., February 10, 2007

By	Ann Victoria Hopcroft, Esq "artist" (Penn Valley, California) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It would be a great thing to sell at airports for business and other travelers. It's digestible in one or two flights and it's chock-full of inspiring thoughts. And that would be enough but this book goes further and offers practical steps for implementing the inspiration! I felt so "I can do this!" after reading it, I thought I'd keep the book on my shelf for future shots in the arm.
