The book market is saturated with guides on how to live more successfully. Many require the reader to wade through a myriad of lengthy philosophical beliefs and principles. All to often, well meaning readers buy these books with every intention of absorbing all the bits of wisdom inside. Unfortunately, many don't have time to really study such books, let alone extract basic daily living guidelines. Tom Massey has written a simple book. The ABC's of Successful Living cuts to the chase. It is an easy read. Pick it up and you may find yourself motivated to read it from cover to cover in one sitting. Or it may be easier to read whenever you want a spirital pick-me-up.This book is a true blessing. In relatively few pages it covers a broad spectrum of practical advice and affirmations for improving your life; for transforming your perspectives on livivng and being. Use only part of this book and you'll find yourself entering a new level of conscious awarness; use it and apply it all and you'll learn that the true secrets of life and universal knowing are essentially simple. This is a very simple book with the power to change your life. It's just that simple.
Corporate trainer, consultant, motivational speaker, and seminar leader, Tom Massey, draws from his experience and the wisdom of the ages to provide the reader with fifty-two basic guidelines for daily living. Each concise chapter contains an inspirational observation, a practical application which includes suggestions for specific action steps to be taken to begin the process for experiencing successful living, and an affirmation to help you, the reader, to assimilate these ingredients of the success formula. I, personally, found Massey's emphasis on keeping focused, disciplined, and committed helpful. His succinct instruction becomes a guide for success in leadership, in relationships, career advancement, and in gaining financial independence. The affirmation related to "Own Your Actions" struck a chord with me. "I am accountable for my thoughts and actions to those who lovingly reveal direction for my highest goals." The narrative story of Wilma Rudolph and her victory in the Rome Olympics of 1960 exemplifies the affirmation, "I am experiencing a tremendous sense of fulfillment and joy as I turn life's lemons into lemonade." Over the years I have read many "How To", "Self Help", and "Motivational Books", I continue to rate Tom Massey's books as the cream of the crop. "The ABC's of Successful Living" is no exception and provides the basic ingredients for getting what you really want.
