YOU'RE BROKE BECAUSE YOU WANT TO BE

My copy of "YOU'RE BROKE BECAUSE YOU WANT TO BE" by Larry Winget arrived on Friday and I read it cover to cover over the weekend. Larry sure gets in your face. If you are interested in getting ahead financially then this book deserves to be on your desk.

No, let me correct that. You and your family deserve to have this book on your desk. Not on your bookshelf where you will forget it. Put it on your desk so that Larry will be looking at you every time you sit down to work. Believe me, his face doesn't get any prettier if you look at the book on your desk every day. But he does continue to be in your face and motivate you to keep focusing on GETTING AHEAD by becoming amazing at what you do and working hard. His website and videos are referenced in the book support his message and make it real to his readers.

Also, don't do what most of us want to do. Even I was tempted to "do it later". Don't skip the exercises in the book. I found the final exercise on page 198 to be the most powerful. I have not done this exercise before, and encourage you to complete this exercise.
