Success: American Style

by Wade B. Cook

Everyone wants to succeed but few are able to define success. Few could chart a course to attain it, or perhaps would even recognize it when on the road toward it. In this creative book, Elder Paul H. Dunn of the First Quarum of the Seventy suggests that too often people look at success in the wrong light. The world prompts us to What brings pleasure? What gives me glory, recognition, and fame? What can I consume? What can I do to others to get gain for myself? The author questions whether such worldly attainment is success at all.

"Success Is..." was given to me many years ago as a gift at high school graduation time. It's a short book on setting priorities and defining success. My favorite chapter is the last, which includes eight steps we can take that can lead to positive changes in our lives.
