Success is Achieved by Design Wisdom and common sense are perennial skills taught from generation to generation for centuries, yet the lack of these core ingredients to social and professional success continue to create problems. Some of our habits are harmful to our well-being but escape our attention because that is 'just the way it is and always has been.' That is until you see yourself in these pages and exclaim, 'That's me!' And you make what may feel like little changes, but these deliberate actions on your part transform your life and make better life. You can never be oblivious again. Everyone, from teens to seniors, can apply the common sense in this guide from Jim Giambrone. His rich and diverse life as a police officer, massage therapist, Jujitsu instructor, union leader and dog trainer will teach you to be, like Jim is as a dog trainer, very 'alpha'- lovingly in charge, to create your life the way you want it to be.
