This proactive, practical guide is
unlike any self-help book you've
ever read. It's not about simple
motivation or inspiration; that
stuff only matters if you have a
plan. Me, Inc. is designed to help
you develop that plan and then
execute it to perfection. It's not a
generic, one-size-fits-all program,
but a personalized system for
improving your life and filling it
with purpose, meaning, and
contentment.
In Me, Inc., business
consultant and executive coach Scott
Ventrella shows you how to achieve
unlimited success by incorporating
the basic principles of good
business into everyday living. He
starts by sharing the ten
time-tested principles that guide
most successful and enduring
companies and shows you how to apply
them to your life. Once you
understand those principles,
Ventrella helps you design your own
custom "exceptional living
plan"—much like a business plan—that
will guide you on the road to an
exceptional life.
What if you were the CEO of a
mediocre company? Would you just sit
back and let the business plod along
on a road to nowhere? Of course you
wouldn't. Any competent CEO would
get proactive and start developing
and implementing a plan for success.
Now think about your life. Isn't it
just as important as any business?
Over the course of twelve
"milestones" and accompanying
exercises, you'll learn what you
want and why, create your custom
exceptional living plan based on
your ultimate goals, use that plan
as an everyday guide to living, and
learn how to maintain your momentum
and stay on track. You'll take stock
of your most important "clients,"
gather feedback on your actions, set
goals and priorities, and implement
plans for change and constant
improvement. Rather than float
through life, you'll take control,
be your own boss, and steer You,
Inc. into the black.
You only lead one life, so why
lead an average one? Me, Inc. will
show you how to stop living by
accident and start living on
purpose. When you embrace your role
as CEO of your own life, you'll live
with enthusiasm, determination,
purpose, and confidence. If you want
to achieve your goals and dreams,
now is the time to take charge and
be the boss.
"Ventrella takes the
best practices of
Fortune 500
companies and shows
how you can apply
them to another
important
venture—you! Your
life deserves at
least as much
attention as your
job does, so read
this book and turn
your time on Earth
into a satisfying,
meaningful
enterprise."

Minute Manager® and

"In all of the
thirteen years since
I first heard
Ventrella speak on
this subject, I have
consistently been
impressed by the
value of his
approach and the
responses of the
hundreds of students
who have benefited
from his structured
program. With the
publication of Me,
Inc., Ventrella
reveals to a much
larger audience the
way to create
successful, happy
lives. His students
at Fordham and
executive coaching
clients have been
applying it with
excellent results
for years."
