A motivational business book that's as full of heart as it is life-changing advice, Shift Your Thinking: Win Where You Stand is a must-read for anyone who's ever had a dream-and yes, that means you!
Internationally renowned author, speaker, and entrepreneur Clifton L. Taulbert knows all about the challenges that try to crowd out achievement. Even though he grew up in the Mississippi Delta during the time of segregation, he chose to shift his thoughts away from society's debilitating words and focus instead on the wisdom and encouragement of his "Porch People"-those family, friends, and even strangers who spoke the language of possibility, endurance, and dreams.
Now, Taulbert shares the seven strategies of entrepreneurial thinking that have helped him achieve success. And whether you're an entrepreneur or not, this type of thinking can change your life.
It's easy to think that if only things were different, you could be successful and to consider where you are as the impediment to where you want to be. But that is your first mistake. Step one: change your mind-set. It is our thoughts that drive our actions. Refuse to be held captive by fear-and open your mind to possibility.
Now, gear up for the journey of a lifetime!
