Martin Murphy, however, has helped a who's who of corporate clients transform time-sapping meetings into breakthrough sessions that are measurably productive.

Leveraging. Strategizing. Opening the kimono. Unlocking human capital. Trying to nail that BHAG. All on a go-forward basis. These are only a few examples of the jargon-ridden language that is too often the mainstay of business communication. Jargon frustrates, confuses, and generally alienates listeners. Yet it's also everywhere, and using it can often seem like a mandatory requirement for anyone who wants to establish credibility in a professional workplace. To be an effective leader, you must be brave enough to be the first to drop jargon.

A system can describe what we see (the solar system), operate a computer (Windows 10), or be made on a page (the 14 engineered lines of a sonnet). In this book, Clifford Siskin shows that system is best understood as a genre - a form that works physically in the world to mediate our efforts to understand it. Indeed, many Enlightenment authors published works they called "system" to compete with the essay and the treatise.

Why does a CEO who has already made hundreds of millions of dollars continue to work? Why does a rock star who has made a bundle continue to tour? Why do retirees' miss work as soon as they stop doing it? Why do we all wrestle with our life's work and talk about it incessantly? The thing about work is that we love it, we hate it, we need it, we miss it, we measure ourselves by it, we judge others by it - we are addicted to it. Work often defines us and fulfills us.

What is the key that unlocks the doorway to the power greater than we are? How can we discover the secret that Jesus so plainly told us was inherent in the kind of relationship he had with God? We are so inclined to think of Jesus as a person filled with love and compassion and human kindness that we have overlooked something else about him that is equally important. Jesus had access to a spiritual power that he used in every way. He was not the great exception; he was the great example.

Success and happiness are feelings of contentment, knowing that you have what you want out of life. Therefore, success and happiness can be defined in terms of both the intangible and the tangible. There are many happy people who are unknown, but they are accomplishing things. Some garbage collectors are happy; some millionaires are not. Success and happiness are not necessarily defined in terms of fame and money.

Your thoughts and feelings create your destiny. Whatever your conscious and subconscious minds agree upon will come to pass. Think of illness and you will be ill. Think of happiness and you will be happy. You have the power to control what goes into your mind. Instead of dwelling on depressing and life-sapping thoughts, feed your sub-conscious with life giving patterns and your actions and reactions will match your thoughts.
