This review is based on a copy of the book which I received free from the Publisher through the Goodreads First Reads program.In the Authors second 3 Off the Tee book she moves from Business Success to Personal Success. Something which I believe has to precede business success.She walks us through 18 chapters titled as the 18 holes on a golf course. The front half of the book (Holes 1 to 9) are about mentally preparing for success. As you may already know if you don’t prepare yourself mentally for success; when it arrives, how do you know ?? If you are not prepared then you may not recognize success and continue to just flail along. As in many sports mental superiority most times trumps physical superiority. This is just as true in your personal life.The back half of the book (Holes 10 to 18) moves you from mental awareness to actually creating the actions that are going to offer you success. Success can be as much a state of mind as it is a physical activity. This section guides you to link your mental awareness to actual actions that will fulfill that awareness and create personal success.This is an easy read with digestible chapters along with examples from the Authors experience.

When I first picked up Lorii Myers' 3 Off the Tee: Make It Happen, a Healthy, Competitive Approach to Achieving Personal Success, one thing interested me. It was the personal success part. There has only been one time in my life when I went out on a golf course to play. I hit two, or maybe three balls, and I was finished. Golf just was not of any interest to me. Maybe I was influenced by my father's attitude that golf is silly because it is only hitting the ball and walking to where you hit it, then hitting it again.The fact is that Lorii brings meaning to the game. Furthermore, she creates endless analogies between being successful at golf and being successful in life. She obviously knows both games well. It becomes very obvious as one reads through the 18 chapters that she has both acts together. Endless books about self improvement have been written. This is among the best. I still am not ready to hit the golf course again. I am approaching 70, and that's a game that I'll probably never take up at this stage of life. But Lorii's book has given me a degree of respect for the game that I didn't have before. Lorii, you accomplished a minor miracle! The self improvement aspects of the book are endless. This is not just one of those books to read one time and then place on the shelf, never to touch again. I would advise everyone who reads it to have a pencil with them. Don't be afraid to mark up the pages. There's a tremendous amount of material in there that you are going to want to revisit time and again for further focus. When I read a book and come away feeling that I have gained something useful, I know it is something well worth the price. It is no exaggeration to say that in the genre of Ms. Myers' expertise, she ranks right at the top tier with such people as Napoleon Hill and Dale Carnegie. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

At the age of twenty, Lorii Myers had a near-death experience when an allergic reaction to food additives caused her throat to swell to a point where she could no longer catch her breath. As her husband checked her into emergency, she lost consciousness and it took a shot of adrenaline to bring her around. Weeks later, she still had blister-like welts on her face, and during a follow-up appointment, she asked her doctor what would have happened if she hadn't made it to the hospital in time. He casually explained she could have slipped into a coma, but to Myers, the mother of a one-month-old baby, "It was the most significant thing in my world-survival," she says. At that very point, her perspective changed. She focused on what was important to her, learning how to embrace urgency and use it to her advantage. Immediately caught in what she refers to as "the make-it-happen moment," she launched a lifestyle that was geared toward the optimization of personal achievement. "One of my favori...

Things I didn't like: I hate it when words break across the lines. Unfortunately, I'm not a sports person, so I generally just found the book to be confusing. ( )
