Motivation on the Run

Phil Gerbyshak’s latest book telegraphs the intent right from the title, 10 Ways to Make it Great. Not settling for second best or even good, Phil takes the reader on a journey of discovery. Phil’s sole life’s goal is to fight good with GREAT! This book is Phil’s manifesto for GREATNESS!

Concise and to the point, the book takes the form of a workbook, requiring interaction from the reader. You can’t just read this book, then lay it down and say it had no affect, unless you ignore the calls to action at the end of each chapter.

The books is logically divided into ten chapters (hence, 10 Ways) each focusing on a different point of self improvement, then (each chapter) ends with a call to engage the brain and determine how to accomplish each point. Not only that, but it provides the space to write your plan directly in the book. This is good for several reasons.

First, the actions require either deep thought or research, and can’t be ignored. Breezing through the book isn’t an option. A tough look at life’s current circumstances and putting a plan together to move to the next level are part of the engagement.

Second, with your action step defined in the book, it becomes an essential tool for moving from good to GREAT! You don’t have to remember what the purpose of each action is, it’s right there, waiting to remind you every time you open the book.

Phil pours himself into this book, just like his Make it Great website. Without being a bully, he coaxes the reader to action at the end of each chapter. And, if you skip the action steps, guilt will consume you until you take action.

Do you desire greatness, or is mediocre working for you? Here’s your chance to MAKE IT GREAT!
