The section on forgiveness was the one that resonated most strongly for me but so many other chapters were filled with amazing advice! ~ Cee Z This is a story written with heart. Our authors could have taken what they learned and kept it to themselves. Instead, they’ve decided to share and hope that something will speak to you. ~ BookBub/Goodreads Reviewer I loved their advice. And you learn to take it seriously because they lived it, but what spoke to me was that they told you HOW to do it, not just what to do. Speaks to your soul. ~ MG A Creative Rebel’s Guide to Winning the Game of Life was a thought provoking read. Invest in yourself and grab a copy of this book.

This is a guide to the principles of competitive business strategy. The book draws, chapter by chapter, on illustrative instances and examples involving vigorous competition between determined rivals in business. It offers helpful ideas for devising ways to prevail in confrontation with business competitors. Based on the course on competitive strategy taught by the author over the past ten years to executives and undergraduates, the book provides a thought-provoking complement to standard textbooks. Each chapter addresses a key strategic principle, richly illustrated with topical business examples, and followed by student questions at the end of the chapter. Most contemporary accounts of strategic thinking concentrate on preserving a business in steady state through thinking about economics, markets and business development, rather than dealing directly with psychological confrontation between business rivals.
