About this title

From the Author

A True Story:
TV INTERVIEWER
"After reading your book, I have decided I do not want to become a high achiever."

AUTHOR JOHN NOE
"There's a lot of wisdom in what you say. How many people do you know who have been pushed out into an area of high achievement who had no business being there . . . who didn't have the faintest idea of what it was going to take . . . who went out and tried to climb a mountain of success they had no business being on?"

"Unfortunately, they only got part way up, fell off, hurt themselves, ruined their relationships, became bitter and resentful, and dropped out. No, Jane, you are right. Better to read a book like Peak Performance Principles for High Acheivers and find out what it is really going to take . . . and then decide not to become a high achiever, than to waste all that time, money, and effort, suffer so much loss, and end up relegating yourself to the valley of frustration and anguish vowing never to climb again."

TV INTERVIEWER
"John, that makes so much sense."

From the Back Cover

PEAK PERFORMANCE PRINCIPLES FOR HIGH ACHIEVERS -- REVISED EDITION is Noe's dynamic and updated story of how he transformed himself, sedentary and out-of-shape in his mid-thirties, into a dynamic leader -- and how you can too.

John R. Noe is using his mountain-climbing adventures as an allegory for the challenge of goal setting and the thrill of high achievement. Noe shows you how to choose accurate goals, how to reach them, how to remain committed to the accomplishment of a goal whether earthly or spiritual, and -- in short -- how to become a high achiever. To help you succeed, Noe offers a unique philosophy of reaching "beyond self-motivation" to the spiritual motivation that comes from God.

Reading this book the reader will be able to:

• Answer the ten questions that can change your life
• Develop the skills and drive to reach the summit
• Learn the six essential attitudes of a high achiever:

1. High achievers make no small plans,
2. Are willing to do what they fear,
3. Are willing to prepare,
4. To risk failure,
5. To be taught,
6. And must have heart.
