What creates success? Is it skill? Talent? Ambition? Luck? Expertise?
It’s none of the above. While a variety of factors form our abilities and influence the events in our lives, there is only one thing that creates genuine success: Character.
Based on the personal, corporate, and military experiences of Dr. J. Phillip London, a successful defense industry executive, as well as on many other real-life examples, the book consists of 17 lessons over five sections ¬– Keystone: Character, Blueprint: Vision, Structure: Action, Appraise: Resolve, and Build: Momentum.
Character: The Ultimate Success Factor demonstrates how character – expressed through perspective, action, and resilience – drives success. Just some of the simple and tangible lessons covered by Dr. London include:
• Assessing your attitude
• Envisioning goals
• Embracing change
• Making decisions
• Overcoming fear
• Aligning yourself with the right people and organizations
• Identifying opportunities
• Speaking up
• Accepting risk
• Creating momentum
