by James W. Thompson

Are you tired of not succeeding no matter how many times you have tried, tried again? Are your book shelves lined with self-help and motivational products that claim to have the keys to success, but those keys don't seem to open your locked doors? Then this book definitely has a message for you! CHAR(13) + CHAR(10)So what makes this success program any different from all those others you have experienced in the past? The unique focus of this book is that it's not meant to replace any success program on the market; the message contained within this book is intended to enhance your experience of those programs. In addition, it aims to reveal your hidden weaknesses and personal strategies for self sabotage, while exposing the weapons of your adversaries. Weapons created, designed, and given freely to your enemies - by none other than you.CHAR(13) + CHAR(10)The mission of the GOD SAID BUTT OUT series is to help you build a bridge. Too many of us are standing on one shore, while the results of our dreams and desires remain waiting for us on an elusive distant shore. After reading this book (and our continuing series) our intention is that you will be empowered with a personal insight into who you really are, and why your desired results have eluded you. Then, as you study the gospel of the motivational preachers and their keys to success - their roadmap to a better life - you will finally succeed in building a bridge to your destiny. How? By using proven methods that will finally work because you have achieved a better understanding of... you.
