Investing should be no different. What works should become habit, and for success every investor should develop his or her own set of habits. In this book, investing expert Peter Sander reveals a set of twenty-five habits that lie behind his own personal investing success, habits loyal to the value investing principles of Benjamin Graham, Warren Buffett, and others.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children in today's world are inundated with information about who to be, what to do and how to live. But what if there was a way to teach children how to manage priorities, focus on goals and be a positive influence on the world around them? The Leader in Meis that programme. It's based on a hugely successful initiative carried out at the A.B. Combs Elementary School in North Carolina. To hear the parents of A. B Combs talk about the school is to be amazed. In 1999, the school debuted a programme that taught The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Peopleto a pilot group of students. The parents reported an incredible change in their children, who blossomed under the programme. By the end of the following year the average end-of-grade scores had leapt from 84 to 94. This book will launch the message onto a much larger platform. Stephen R. Covey takes the 7 Habits, that have already changed the lives of millions of people, and shows how children can use them as they develop. Those habits -- be proactive, begin with the end in mind, put first things first, think win-win, seek to understand and then to be understood, synergize, and sharpen the saw -- are critical skills to learn at a young age and bring incredible results, proving that it's never too early to teach someone how to live well.
Download or read book Become Unstoppable written by Christopher Di Armani and published by . This book was released on 2018-07-20 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Become an Unstoppable Author Success leaves clues. Figure out what successful authors did to advance their careers, then do what they did. It's the most effective course of action. Simple concept, but we must do the work. You know, the hard part. In the pages ahead I discuss how each habit works, as well as the lies we tell ourselves to rationalize our lack of forward progress. Finally, I shine the light of truth on the lies we tell ourselves and watch as they scurry away like little cockroaches. I include anecdotes from my own life, where appropriate, to explain the principle at play and give you a real-world example of my successes and my failures to implement them. While you may disagree with one or more points made in this book, the unassailable truth is many highly successful authors apply these principles to their lives. Apply these principles to your life and you'll achieve their success. It's inevitable. All it takes is a pinch of perseverance, a dash of focus, and two cups of hard work. I studied successful authors to learn how they do what they do. I examined their work ethic, their writing habits, and their life stories to find the clues they left behind. I use it all to increase my chances to achieve their success. This book is the result. May it guide you down Publication Highway and keep you safe along the way.
