Publisher's Synopsis
If you were subjected to the same type of education system that I was, you've realized that you were taught what to think and not how to think. You've been told that having a tree digit IQ score is a must to be a success or you have to do well on the SAT or ACT. Ask anyone who has reached the top tier as an entrepreneur if having an MBA was the main factor in their success. It's laughable! Neuroscience and well-documented research have concluded that EQ (Emotional Intelligence) is the best indicator of entrepreneurial success and there is also Spiritual Intelligence and Physical Intelligence. There is a big difference between knowing and doing. Get ready to learn to unlearn. The self-help industry makes billions of dollars each year. It's flooded with books and programs. I should know because I've spent a small fortune reading them since 1985. Many are great because they feed your mind with correct principles. This book could very well be your catalyst to greatness. But, it shouldn't be the last one you read. Although it is practical and an easy read, you should never stop feeding that wonderful brain that God specifically designed for you. You become the sum total of your thoughts, and continual growth is essential. The challenge for many is that they get the wrong mental nutrients. What you regularly put into your mind is crucial. Jim Rohn said, "If you work hard on your job you can make a living, but if you work hard on yourself, you can make a fortune." Continually building your character and the power of critical (Socratic thinking) is the answer and the secret to the wonderful life you were designed to have. George Bernard Shaw said, "Two percent of people think, three percent think they think, and ninety-five percent would rather die than think." The Power of Taking the Plunge reveals success principles supported by the ageless wisdom of the Scriptures and by the latest breakthroughs in neuroscience. It will help you to discover "you"! You are uniquely designed for a purpose. Reading this book may be the answer or the catalyst to a fulfilled life each of us wants. Life can and will be messy for us all. So what! As long as you begin with a sound moral foundation and integrity becomes your highest value, get started and take the plunge. If you have breath in you, your Creator expects you to never stop. This is not a "fad" book; it is a "fact" book. The time-tested principles for success are applicable whether you are a CEO, business manager, teacher, computer programmer, pastor, sales executive, parent, athlete, or student. It is for those who have never succeeded or have reached many levels of success and want more of the greatness life has to offer. I personally have my Masters degree in "Failure" which has led and is leading to my Ph.D. in "Results."
