Life Is Like A Turtle: You Can't Go Anywhere Unless You Stick Your Neck Out!

August Mansker has been involved in the self-improvement field for over fifty years. That experience can provide the reader with helpful insights on how to take their own life to the next level.

He opened his first fitness center in 1957. Desire to succeed was elusive until he made a few changes in his life strategies. When these changes were made, everything opened up.

He believes the main key to get what you want out of life, is first deciding exactly what it is you really want. Sounds simple, yet few people ever develop clearly defined goals. He says, "You can't hit a target you don't have!" Plus life has a risk-reward ration, learn to make it work for you.

His first book was Dead People Don't Feel Like Exercising, Only Excited People Do! In 1980 he wrote the audiocassette programs Winning in Business & Take Control of your Financial Future, and the audiocassette program, Take Control of your Health & Figure.

August E. Mansker was born in Kansas City, Missouri in 1938. He opened his first fitness center in Independence, Missouri at the age of eighteen. At one time he owned and operated fitness centers-coast to coast, border to border. His passion has been trying to understand human behavior and what makes people tick.
