TITLE: The ABCs of Success: The Essential Principles from America’s Greatest Prosperity TEACHER
AUTHOR: BOB PROCTOR
This is an accessible guide to the principles of success by one of the most respected and sought-after motivational speakers of our time. In the tradition of Og Mandino and Zig Ziglar, this inspirational guide uses a wide variety of subjects, from “Achievement” to “Worry,” to bring clarity, information, and motivation to readers.
For millions of readers, Bob Proctor’s name is synonymous with success. A former protégé of personal development pioneer Earl Nightingale, Proctor first built a wildly successful business career, and then an internationally successful speaking career, elaborating on the principles of Napoleon Hill’s Think and Grow Rich and other classic success and prosperity texts. His position in the business motivation community equals that of Stephen Covey or Og Mandino. But unlike those masters, his books have never been available through a trade press—until now.
