Review:

Our ancestors had to go to some rather extreme measures to keep from getting lost. They used landmarks, maps, and the sky to help them find their way. Navigation is much easier today. For less than one hundred dollars, you can get a pocket-sized gadget that will tell you exactly where you are on Earth at any moment. As long as you have a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver and a clear view of the sky, you ll never be lost again. So exactly what is the Global Positioning System? It is actually a constellation of twenty-seven Earth-orbiting satellites (twenty-four in operation and three extras in case one fails). The orbits are arranged so that at anytime, anywhere on Earth, there are at least four satellites visible in the sky. A GPS receiver s job is to locate four or more of these satellites, figure out the distance to each, and use this information to deduce its own location. We thought that this system is a great word picture to illustrate the concept of navigating your way to success in business and in life. We ve changed the acronym GPS and for the purposes of this book, it stands for Goals and Proven Strategies. These elements are vital for success. The search was on. We wanted to find interesting speakers/authors who believed they had valuable information to contribute regarding this important topic and we succeeded. Each chapter provides a unique insight into this concept. I think you will find this book to be extremely helpful and an excellent addition to your library. GPS FOR SUCCESS belongs in the home of everyone who wants to know how to navigate the sometimes bewildering path along the road to success. A rewarding experience awaits you. And it begins with this book. --David Wright - Publisher --David Wright -Publisher
