Synopsis
What is success and how do we achieve it? We seem to struggle with the WHAT a lot of times, not knowing what we want. As a result, life seems to be less meaningful and sometimes, it feels as though we’re drifting or cruising along day by day. Is there a formula to success? Are there critical ingredients in the recipe for success? Or is success achieved through luck? In Conversations About Success, we distill the knowledge and wisdom from all the self-enrichment sources into one coherent piece, in the form of 12 principles of success. These principles are generic and not specific to any particular field or discipline. Read the book to find out! "A solid introduction to the principles of success, using the time-tested Socratic method of questions and answers to bring us to the truth of things." - Tom Butler-Bowdon, Author of 50 Self-Help Classics, 50 Success Classics “Chris has managed to pull something rather special off with this small but beautifully formed book. The advice may be vaguely familiar to many, yet it’s creatively communicated – by Socrates himself! - and the exercises nicely framed, in such a way that you get drawn into doing them and learning before you know it. This book is a little gem for anyone wishing to consider their own path in life and freshen up their goals, yet not be lectured at or swamped with details” - Esther Cameron, Director Integral Change Consulting Ltd (UK) “Singapore is embarking on a change of mindset – from qualifications to competencies. And the most important, but often neglected, competency is knowing what does one want to achieve with all the competencies! Chris Chew's book is relevant and timely. Many, not just the young, would benefit from this book” - Dr Lee Kwok Cheong , CEO SIM Global Education
