My Weekly Reminder

Many people have a strong aversion to taking risks because they’re afraid they might fail.  What they don’t realize is that failure is the most direct pathway to success.  As Soichiro Honda, the founder of Honda Motor Corporation succinctly put it: “Success is 99% failure.”  Each time we fail, we learn something of value that assures our future success.  Yes, people who avoid risk don’t experience much failure, but they don’t learn much either which means there’s is no future success on their horizon.  This makes life a very boring enterprise with little excitement or fun.  Actress, Geena Davis, captured this all important connection between risk and success when she said: “By risking nothing, you risk everything.”

I Need Your Help Promoting My New Book

As you know, my new book, Instant Turnaround!  Getting People Excited about Coming to Work and Working Hard is being launched on April 21, 2009.  In order to assure the book’s success, I need to create as much buzz about it as possible by booking as many speaking engagements as I can.  Therefore, between now and May of 2009, I’m offering to speak on How to Achieve an Instant Turnaround for a greatly reduced fee plus travel expenses.  So, if you’re planning a meeting, conference, workshop or seminar and would like a quality speaker on a timely subject, please contact me.  If you schedule me to speak before the end of May, I’ll give you a personalized copy of Instant Turnaround! as soon as it’s published.  Thank you so much.  Ross
