Ideas are the Currency of the Twenty-First Century

One quote from Lee Iacocca in his book, “Iacocca: An Autobiography”, has stayed top of mind and led to many breakthroughs in my life.  Iacocca, for the younger crowd, was the famous auto executive who was fired from Ford and went on to lead the miraculous Chrysler turnaround in the 1980’s.

Lee said in his book, “You can have brilliant ideas, but if you can’t get them across, your ideas won’t get you anywhere.”

That one quote caused me to take a Dale Carnegie course in my younger days and become an award winning speaker to get my ideas across.  It led me to write and publish books that have sold across the globe. It continues to inspire me today to write and share and help you with ideas on how you can become a better communicator and get your message, your ideas, out into the world – where they can do the most good. Where they can make a real difference in someone’s life.

 

Jim Altucher, in his new book, “The Choose Yourself Guide to Wealth”, (which is destined to become a best-seller like its predecessor, “Choose Yourself: Be Happy, Make Millions, Live the Dream”) goes so far as to say that, “Ideas are the currency of the twenty-first century.”

 

New ideas, new thoughts, new ways of doing things. This is what drives progress, pushes humanity to become better in all areas. One of the greatest compliments I ever received on my books was, “Your way of explaining things Bob does more for me than all the (Youtube) videos.” Your way.

 

You don’t need the status or the alphabet soup of letters after your name for your ideas to have value. YOUR WAY might just be the tip, technique or trick that we need to make our lives better.

 

Don’t deny us. Don’t wait to be chosen. Choose yourself.

 

Write your own book. Publish your own book. Share your ideas with the world.

 

No matter where you are on the ladder of success, there is someone coming up behind you who could use some help. Your way of explaining things might be just what they need.

 

If you need some motivation to get started, to gain confidence in yourself, in your opportunities and your ideas, I highly recommend reading James Altucher’s new book, “The Choose Yourself Guide to Wealth”. 

 

Inside there are great tips you can use right now, he tells great stories about his own failures and successes, plus he’s funny.

 

There has never been a better time to share your idea with the world. Self-publishing makes it easier than ever.

 

Lee Iacocca also said, “Apply yourself. Get all the education you can, but then, by God, do something. Don’t just stand there, make it happen.”

 

Let me know how I can help you.

P.S. In his book, “The Choose Yourself Guide to Wealth”, Altucher also tells you how to get great ideas for a book, or a raise, or anything. Even if you’re struggling right now.
