Announcing...Blind Spots!

It's here!  Tomorrow, I will launch my newest business book, Blind Spots: The 10 Business Myths You Can't Afford to Believe on Your New Path to Success.  In researching the book, I went in search of the 10 biggest myths of business success that people believe to be true even though they don't work for 98 percent of all truly accomplished people. They are:

Myth #1:  Overnight success is possible.

Myth #2:  Controversy will propel your career.

Myth #3:  Employers want you to be yourself. 

Myth #4:  Being good at your job trumps everything.

Myth #5:  It’s best to climb the ladder as fast as possible.

Myth #6:   You’ll get more money because you’ve earned it.

Myth #7:  The problem isn’t you, it’s the organization. 

Myth #8:  You won’t get laid off, you’re too essential.   

Myth #9:  If only you could break out of Corporate America, everything would be perfect.

Myth #10:  Do what you love and the money will follow.

Sound intriguing?  If you want to learn more, check out a free excerpt here.

I hope you'll pick up a copy (or a few) for yourself, your friends, and your family members.  I guarantee that everyone who has worked in the professional world for longer than five minutes will benefit from this book!  If you like the book - or don't - please write a review on Amazon and be entered to win a $50 gift certificate.  If there are only 10 or 20 reviews, you have a good shot! 

In the event that you're not in a position to buy the book, I hope you'll help spread the word. "Like" our Facebook page and share it with your friends.  Talk about your own myths on your online platforms, and raise them here in the comments section.  And if you're in Chicago, join us for the launch party sponsored by RockIt Wrigley on October 6th at 6PM CT!

Thank you all for your support over the last few years.  I wouldn't be able to do any of this without you.

I love it when people expose myths because they really don’t help anybody, yet we all have a tendency to cling on to them.

I just went to buy the book, but there’s no audio version

BTW, I read another book a year or so ago with the same title, but lookiung at blind spots in our thinking. Not sure of the relevance of that, but just thought I’d mention it!
