Scott's positive approach to changing our lives reminds me of another book I just read with the same message, although a different subject. The author of BABY BOOMER BACHELORETTE incites over-forty men and women to rebel against the status quo and sterotypes of middle age. She teaches them how to meet people of the opposite sex so that won't grow old and die alone, which is a big baby boomer fear.
Overcoming fear is a major theme in this book as well. They would make good companions, especially if you're a single baby boomer.
Mediocrity
Fear of failure
Avoiding criticism
Lack of vision
Lack of knowledge
Lack of resources
All of these chains can be broken and replaced by seven booster engines that will ignite your dreams into reality.
What makes this book better than other motivational books? First, Scott gives you assignments at the end of each chapter. Second, they take time. You can't rush through the book. Third, you may have to face some tough facts about yourself. But looking at yourself honestly is vital to making your dreams live.
Most people don't act on their dreams. That's too bad. But just reading this book will take you part of the way to achieving your dreams. The exercises will take you even farther. But first, you've got to buy the book. So buy it. Now. Take the first step.
