In the tradition of fixing major life challenges, the book helps "FIX" the challenge of success running from a person. There are 12 distinctive steps that must be followed in order to achieve the level of success that a person desires in their life. Although success is defined individually, failure is consistently defined as not being able to meet one's goals. This program will walk you one step at a time into the life that you want. You will learn the keys to achievement through each of the steps. 1. Define your current reality. Without knowing the actual starting point and accepting where you are, you will never make it to where you want to be. Having a reality check and accepting responsibility for yourself and your situation is critical. 2. Surround yourself with "right-minded' people. It is critical to have the right people around you so that you are lifted up and not brought down. 3. Define your future, the one that you truly desire. You know who and where you are and you have built a support system around yourself. Now it is time to define where you will end up. 4. Establish the "why" for your your change. Without a strong enough why, what and how will be irrelevant. You have to position yourself for positive change by stacking your emotional deck in your favor. 5. You want to build momentum by defining the benefits that you will receive when you achieve your goals. You now have the positive emotions for change and the negative emotions toward remaining the same. You will really have some intensity for change at this point. 6. You now need to learn what you don't currently know. By acquiring the right skills and knowledge, you will be capable of raising the ceiling on your success. 7. You have to carefully plan your actions. Knowing what you need to know, you take action in the direction of your perfect future. 8. Fail your way to the top. By failing forward and seeing each of the setbacks as an opportunity to grow and learn more, you adopt the growth mindset and propel yourself further than you previously thought possible. 9. Focus your actions. You are not moving quickly toward success and you must eliminate the inessentials. By focusing only on what brings you success and eliminating what distracts you, success becomes more and more inevitable. 10. You will naturally build a following by increasing your positive influence. This following becomes an intense support system for you and your business. 11. Develop your exit strategy. You will either buy your business from yourself and do this long-term, sell it to someone else or transition it to employee owned. Regardless of what you do, doing it with intention will increase your return on investment. 12. Never let anyone stand in your way! This is not a mean or malicious statement. It is simply a reality of the mindset that now propels you. You don't see obstacles as roadblocks anymore. You see them as challenges that will make you even stronger, smarter, faster, and more successful. By following the 12 Steps to Success, you will attain the life that you know you can live. The difference between wildly successful people and the rest of the world is the mindset that they adopt in life. Success: A 12-Step Program helps you to adopt the mindset of the most successful people in the world.
