He has been involved in managing over 30 companies, and thanks to his global business experience, he has come up with a motto for living in the most brilliant way: 100%!! If you read this book, you will clearly understand why you haven't been able to fulfill your dreams, be successful, use your time wisely, clarify your priorities, or live a happy life. The book includes a special CD-ROM with a video about living the 100% life. It shows a special seminar where James shares years of experience and research on becoming happy and successful.
Excerpt from the book:
What percentage of your life are you living?
Whether you are a salaried worker, an office worker, a businessperson, a restaurant employee, a driver, a schoolteacher, a part-time worker, a housewife, a student, or a person who is still looking for the path to follow in life, you were born to be happy and successful. Furthermore, there is a single principle that will help you realize this dream. People who know this principle live ideal lives. Health, money, love, friends, and even free time are all the result of this principle.

A word from the editor: |
I can confidently recommend James Skinner's long-awaited book 100%. As you read this powerful book, I'm certain that you will look back on your life and realize you haven't lived it to the full or used all your abilities.

Before you know it, James' words will stir you, and you will have an honest conversation with yourself. The best part is that the book comes with a CD-ROM! There are lots of hints on how to live 100%. |
