Reviewers WriteHealth Care Professional Review:"I have known James Smith for over 10 years and it's about time he shared his thoughts, ideas and experiences in written form. I always enjoyed listening to him articulate since he is quite the genius. This book will intrigue you, captivate you and improve you and it did to me." Dr. Harvey Manes, Youngest Doctor to become a Board Certified Orthopedic Surgeon, Long Island, NYTechnological Science and Governmental Professional Review"This is a remarkably innovative, well-researched, foundational book for success in any of life's endeavors. It certainly is a "must read" for those in the competitive commercial world, and many of our government leaders could also benefit. This book is brilliantly integrated, cleverly arranged and powerfully insightful - a must for anyone who wants to become a Passionate Leader! The concepts are easy to grasp, the ontology presented in each module builds on that in the previous modules so that by Module 5 the reader has a well-defined approach for success." Henry W. Brandhorst, Jr, Ph.D- Director Auburn University Space Research Institute (1996-2010).Rising Professional and College Student Review"Your Time Management material changed my life. You are my guru! I know hold down two jobs and am going to college." Lucas M. Bronx, NY.Rather than basing human experience on "needs", Goal-Centered Management bases human experience on "goals". The difference between goals and needs is that goals are aimed at specific future states while needs are uncertain, subjective, and ambiguous. Passion is related closely to goals. Passion and desire can strike like lightning, build up slowly like spontaneous combustion of wet hay in a barn, or passion can radiate for years like the sun but still give off solar flares and storms. Learning the foundation of goals and environment tends to light passion. The modern world is future focused. Growth is future focused. Achieving goals...even if that goal is simply trying to keep everything as it is, drives human passion. Goal orientation makes objective and perceptible analysis and action possible with deep feeling. This book presents Goal-Centered Management and Leadership in a guide format suitable for training and as a study. Exercises are included with complete details, fun games. Research references are also included.Life is not only about the pursuit of happiness, life is also aptly described by the happiness of pursuit.
