Description

Use the power of principles to transform your life. In his repeated bids for Olympic gold, Henry Marsh learned that the highest degree of reward and satisfaction is to be found in the unswerving pursuit of personal excellence. The Breakthrough Factor is Marsh's comprehensive plan to achieve a life of value by determining what principles or values to live by and thus find the fulfillment and reward we all desire. Here, Marsh provides a plan for clarifying dreams, rooting out negative influences, setting priorities, establishing plans of action, and meeting goals. He shows how to ensure incredible results in all spheres of life -- in relationships, financial circumstances, career decisions, physical health -- by making choices and arranging priorities around a fruitful set of values and beliefs.

Reviews

Dr. Denis Waitley author of The Psychology of Winning I enthusiastically recommend Henry Marsh's sage advice to anyone who seeks to dramatically improve his or her behavior, health, and attitudes. Bud Greenspan filmmaker and author of 100 Greatest Moments in Olympic History The Breakthrough Factor will give readers new insight into the meaning of victory: that it is, very often, an exceptionally personal and private experience. Robert Berenson President, Grey Advertising The Breakthrough Factor is easy to read, insightful, and wonderfully instructive. His premise is simple, but powerfully effective: We must work hard to cultivate values that will yield the greatest amount of personal satisfaction, fulfillment, and joy. Jim Easton CEO and Chairman, Jas. D. Easton, Inc. Henry Marsh has clearly demonstrated in his life and this book that one's long-term values play a powerful role in success and personal accomplishment.
