Opis

This book is chock-full of strategies, tools, tips and techniques, drawn from the author's experience, which lifted him from the gritty streets of Kingston, Jamaica where he was surrounded by rebels and rude boys, and enabled him to go to University where he obtained a Masters degree, hold his own in corporate board rooms and travel to countries he only dreamed of visiting in his youth. The title is taken from the story in Zen meditation, which the author took up in his youth, of the little Carp which leaped over the waterfall which stood in its way as it swam upstream to its spawning ground. As it leaped over the waterfall it transformed into a magnificent Dragon, which in Chinese mythology, is a creature of heaven unfettered and unbounded by time and space. The author's guarantee is that the strategies he shares will help you to leap beyond your limitations to a life of achievement, fulfillment and success. Anyone who reads this book and completes the exercises and processes will learn how to: Build right character. Create what he calls the 'Dragon's Mindset' which is immune to failure and guarantees their success. Discover and fulfill their Mission and Purpose. Breathe their stress away. Manage and invest their time wisely. Develop effective communication and leadership skills. Become entrepreneurs by learning how to monetize their gifts and talents. This book is ideal especially for young people transitioning from high school into college, university or embarking on their careers. It is the book that every parent should tuck into the knapsack of their son or daughter who is about to leave home to embark on the adventures of their lives. It is the book every manager should recommend for their young proteges.
