<h3> Success is a Decision of the Mind</h3>
By Joan Eleanor Gustafson, et al<br><br>

Everyone wants to be successful. It is, after all, the American way. Parents begin dreaming of their child's successes even before they are born, imagining them as doctors, professional athletes, Wall Street tycoons, or community leaders. Something deep inside drives men and women to achieve and we yearn for the recognition that comes from "success." <br><br>

But success, for many, is both hard to describe and even harder to achieve. It is like the proverbial "sand in the hourglass," forever slipping through our fingers. We wake up thinking about it and drift off to sleep having done little to make it a reality in our lives. Many, however, achieve success in different degrees and this keeps our dreams of success alive. "If she can do, why can't I?" is often the unspoken question of our heart. And when we are feeling confident and sure of ourselves, we say, "If he can do it, so can I!" Maybe this is where success really begins: in the deep, often misunderstood corners of our mind. <br><br>

So, what is the secret to success and why are so many people unable to attain it? There is no one simple answer, but the contributing authors to Success Is A Decision Of The Mind bring a wealth of practical, life-proven ideas, insights, and strategies to anyone willing to dig in and discover! Eleven success specialists, including Joan Gustafson, share their unique perspective on success and achievement in this elegant and inspirational edition. <br><br>
