Book Review: Guiding Principles for Success

Guiding Principles for Success - GPS Map by Dr. Lester Frederick
The book begins with the author's musings about 'early awakening through reading and self-discovery', and creating one's own GPS Map.
Then it explains the process of doing it, how to start and create one's own Guiding Principles for Success (GPS). How to use one's purpose itself as the driving force, and why, the 'why's are ones that move us forward. The book then discusses various models of managing projects and profitability. Like model PLOM (plan, lead, organize, and monitor). Discussion moves to other elements of significance, like paired goals, where personal and professional goals are
bridged together. It also highlights the power of daily routines and behaviors in shaping longterm success. How, even minor changes, when practiced consistently, can lead to profound personal growth and achievement.
The book ends with suggestion to refine GPS Map and continue DAPing (Describing, Assembling,and Practicing) one's GPS to achieve integrated goals for a more balanced life. I found this an excellent companion for shouldering tasks that have the potential to test one's resilience as well as preparedness.
