This book is one of those stories -- about a manager and his mentor. It offers unique encouragement and direction that will help you become a better manager, employee, and person."

Billy Liddell, ex-legend of Liverpool, is on front cover to commemorate what would have been his 100th birthday. The 84-page programme on a flick through emanates red, red, red everywhere.

I received a copy to facilitate my review. The opinions expressed here are my own.
As a grandparent this story resonated with me. I want to be an influence in the lives of my grandchildren. The main characters are bears. However, children will be able to identify with them. baxter is the young bear telling the story of time spent with his Paw-Paw every Monday morning. These trips with his Paw-Paw are special. He learns lessons about accepting responsibility for his own decisions. He learns that the choices he makes can have an effect on others. he learns he needs to do the right thing when no one else is watching him. He also learns the importance of making good choices, especially when it comes to choosing his friends.

I passed this book on to my best friend who has a so the same age as my grandson. She said her son repeatedly asked her to reread the book. It is important that I place good books not only in the hands of my own grandchildren ad their parents but in the hands of my friends with young children as well. After all, one day these children will grow up to be adults and I want to make sure I've done my part in helping them to grow up to be great people

Are you in a leadership position? Tomorrow ask 5 random people on your team "What is the main thing?" You may just get a central theme but not a focused goal. Believe it or not, people really do want a focus and mission at work. If you have people on your team don't, they may be misplaced. Get this book and read it today.

A lot of depth packed into 8 short lessons. It's well worth the 45 minutes it takes to read it. My favorite point wasn't itself one of the lessons but that the first step to becoming extraordinary is to stop being ordinary.

This book is about success ... how to achieve it, keep it, and enjoy it ... by making better choices.
David Cottrell has spent much of his career seeking answers to what separates the successful from those who fail to reach their level of success and has incorporated his findings in 12 Choices.
"Success is ultimately realized by people who make more right choices and recover from their wrong choices," said Cottrell. "This book outlines the choices successful people make most often and how others can learn to make the same choices to be successful in their careers and personal lives."½
