This book actually celebrates the integration of motivational theories, success theories, and wisdom/understanding theories. It is a step-by-step approach on how to start and manage your business, how to plan and budget for your family, and how to become successful as a person. The last chapter contains quotes created by the author that cover all spectrums of life. The book is meant to help you upgrade yourself, upgrade family resources, and upgrade your business. The work is very encouraging and uplifting. It gives insight into problem-solving resources that actually exist, but have been overlooked or taken for granted. It did more than tell one to mow the lawn, for example, without giving the resources like lawn mower or grass cutter to do the job. It shows one how to develop enough personal power and eliminate self-defeating methods of growth and doing business. The fine analysis of the spiritual and the natural settings will compel you to recharge your self-confidence, and boost up your achievement level. Furthermore, this book persuades you to take a hard look at what "success" really means to you and encourages you to motivate your efforts toward reaching a realistic goal. You will develop new strategies for "success", build an unimaginable level of confidence, and elevate your problem-solving and decision-making skills. You will learn how to shape your management style to fit a particular problem that you want to solve, and not basing your approach on some sort of assumed or speculative circumstances. As a matter of fact, the best in you will come out and manifests itself by you new improvements, new ways of thinking, and new ways of doing things. More importantly, the book reminds you, through series of analogical paradigms, that success without wisdom from God in your life is like a water tank with an invisible leak. When you wake up in the morning, the water in your tank is gone and you cannot tell how or why.
