“Thank you for sending me a copy of your book. I'll waste no time reading it.”

“This book fills a much-needed gap.”

“Do you feel you are doing something important or that you care about deeply? Do the content and challenges associated with your work enthrall you? Do you often find yourself surprised by how much time has flown by when you are working? Do you feel passionate about your work? If you have answered yes to one or more of these questions, you are in the fortunate position of being fully engaged by your work.”

“A person who promises and does not fulfill his promise is similar to an egg that never hatches.”

“When was the last time you were so completely engaged and absorbed by your work that all of a sudden you looked up and said, "I can't believe it-five hours couldn't have passed!" This is what psychologists are calling "flow." When you achieve a state of flow, you feel a sensation of confidence, of being in control, of being engaged and focused. Flow is achieved when your work is performed in sync with your aptitudes and values.”

“You are protecting your employability and ensuring that you are on the path to career satisfaction if you can answer yes to the following questions:Are you feeling stretched in a positive way?Can you describe what you have learned in the past six months?Can you describe what you will learn in the next six months?Are you aware of the most recent trends in your field and their implications for your longer-term success?Do you know what skills and knowledge you need to develop that are critical to your future success and employability?Are you strategic in your learning, focusing on something you are good at rather than on your weaknesses?”

“Do not consider it proof just because it is written in books, for a liar who will deceive with his tongue will not hesitate to do the same with his pen.”
