Economy & Business

Every day, we set out to create a better life, a better career, or a better business. We often fail, because we fall into old patterns. But what if by devoting just one single, focused hour a week you could make big improvements in your professional life? And what if you knew in advance exactly what to focus on so that you could utterly destroy your old patterns? The Power of an Hour gives you the blueprint for making those changes, one at a time. Unlike most books that are too focused on one particular aspect of life, this holistic guide offers practical, everyday actions you can use to supercharge your personal and business development. Designed by a successful entrepreneur to work specifically within a busy executive's or business owner's schedule, this insightful, enlightening guide is broken down into two groups of lessons: those dedicated to personal issues and those dedicated to business issues. You'll learn about managing time, improving personal relationships, and creating and following a vision of future success. Just as top athletes have coaches to help them focus on specific areas of their game, Dave Lakhani will help you focus on those issues that have the greatest impact on your success in life and business.
