How do the most powerful people get to the top?

Master the "Essential 8" disciplines and rise to excellence.

Those who have achieved greatness know something you may not. We all know success can be accomplished with years of dedication and hard work. But the most accomplished achievers also know there's a shortcut. A clear path that the richest, most athletic, and most successful know well. And it begins with the Essential 8 disciplines. Once you have these disciplines under your belt, you set yourself up to accomplish just about anything you want.

The 50 great minds in our Personal Insight Library will help you master the following Essential 8 disciplines: Confidence, Passion, Discipline, Teamwork, Time Management, Character, Communication, and Giving. These eight disciplines build on one another to help you form a complete life that's nothing short of extraordinary. Names you know, such as Jack Canfield, Harvey MacKay, Mark Victor Hansen, Brian Tracy, Zig Ziglar, David Bach, and dozens more! And once you apply the disciplines you learn throughout your Personal Insight Library to your everyday actions and reactions...that's when you begin to see immediate rewards in each and every area of your life.
