Do It! or Ditch It: Turn Ideas into Action and Make Decisions that Count

by Bev James, James Caan (Foreword)

"Every successful achievement in life begins with a positive thought and a conscious decision." Entrepreneur and businesswomen Bev James uses coaching and profiling principles to inspire people to be single-minded, learn how to plan, prioritize, delegate, and take action to get things done and get them done well in work and in life. To be successful you must have a passion for action and belief in your idea. You must recognize the right opportunity and take appropriate action to ensure follow-through and drive the project to completion. But how do you decide which idea to run with and which action should become your top priority? In eight simple steps, Bev's down-to-earth Do It or Ditch It approach teaches you how to make clear decisions from the outset so that at every step along the way, you will be more likely to succeed.

I gave it the stars because it was thought-provoking and useful. I was wrestling with some career/work-related dilemmas and it helped me out. Not saying it is remarkably well written. But, hey if it works ...

Good inspiration but lacks excitement. Hard to get going.

Very practical and applicable.
Love how Bev used her own case study as well as personal experiences.
A must read for every female entrepreneur in my opinion!

[Irina Childs · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great book if you have too many business ideas, if you attempt them all at the same time or if you need to focus your mind on a winning one!
