eBook Description: Good Thinking. According to New York Times best-selling author John C. Maxwell, it's the one thing all successful people have in common. People who achieve their dreams understand the critical relationship between their level of thinking and their level of progress. They know that success depends on how well they think. If the results you're getting aren't what you want, you need to change your mind-because if your thinking is limited, so is your potential. Every person has the potential to become an effective thinker. In Thinking for a Change, John Maxwell identifies the specific thinking skills people need to make their potential for success explode. Maxwell encourages readers to-- • Acquire the Wisdom of Big Picture Thinking • Unleash the Potential of Focused Thinking • Discover the Joy of Creative Thinking • Recognize the Importance of Realistic Thinking • Release the Power of Strategic Thinking • Feel the Energy of Possibility Thinking • Embrace the Lesson of Reflective Thinking • Question the Acceptance of Popular Thinking • Encourage the Participation of Shared Thinking • Experience the Satisfaction of Unselfish Thinking • Enjoy the Return of Bottom Line Thinking. Thinking for a Change won't try to tell you what to think; it will teach you how to think. Because if you know how to think well, you have all the tools you need for success!

"As you think, so shall you be. In this important and very readable book, John Maxwell will teach you how to think in a way that will keep you ahead in these turbulent times and create exciting new opportunities and possibilities."--Robert Kriegel, Ph.D., author of If It Ain't Broke? Break It! and How to Succeed in Business Without Working So Damn Hard!

FORETHOUGHT: THE DIFFERENCE THAT REALLY MAKES A DIFFERENCE Why are some people successful and others not? That question has been asked millions of times. You'll hear many answers. Consider some of the popular ones: Successful people get better opportunities. People who do not succeed have bad backgrounds. Education makes all the difference. Failure results from bad breaks. Some people are smart; others aren't. Lazy people don't succeed. I've looked for answers to that question throughout my life. Let me tell you a story that I believe reveals the solution. A friend of mine has two daughters. Kim, the 21-year-old younger daughter, applied to pharmacy school during her senior year of college. On the day she got word of her acceptance, her older sister, Jennie, who is 25, was there to share the news. Kim was ecstatic. Jennie felt glad that Kim had achieved her goal, but she also pitied her. "Mom," she said, "I feel sorry for Kim. She is going to have to go to school for four more years!" One daughter thinks: "I have just earned an opportunity for a future career." Her sister thinks: "She has to go to school for four more years!" Here's the difference: Successful people think differently than unsuccessful people. One sister heard the news and felt excited because she thought about the lucrative, rewarding career about to open up to her. The other sister thought only about the amount of time it would take to achieve it. How skilled is your thinking? Does your thinking help you achieve? This book identifies eleven types of thinking that successful people employ. Which type of thinking do you believe will increase your odds for success? Small Thinking or Big-Picture Thinking? Scattered Thinking or Focused Thinking? Restrictive Thinking or Creative Thinking? Fantasy Thinking or Realistic Thinking? Random Thinking or Strategic Thinking? Limited Thinking or Possibility Thinking? Impulsive Thinking or Reflective Thinking? Popular Thinking or Innovative Thinking? Solo Thinking or Shared Thinking? Selfish Thinking or Unselfish Thinking? Wishful Thinking or Bottom-Line Thinking? If you're currently not successful, or you are not as successful as you would like to be, it may be because you are not thinking your way to the top. To place yourself on the pathway of success, I suggest that you do the following: Read each chapter to better understand successful thinking. Evaluate yourself at the end of each chapter by answering the thinking question. Take the action steps included to implement the kind of successful thinking described in the chapter. Together for the next fourteen chapters, we will take a thinking trip. It could be the difference that makes all the difference in your life! Copyright © 2003 by John C. Maxwell
