How to Do What You Want to Do If What You're Doing Ain't What You Want to Do

Résumé du livre

Gene Perret left a successful career as an electrical engineer to pursue his dream of being a comedy writer. He left Philadelphia, PA for Hollywood and since then has worked for many legendary comedians including Bob Hope and Phyllis Diller, won three Emmy Awards for his work on "The Carol Burnett Show," and has authored over 50 books. The secret of switching from what you're doing to what you want to do is a steady, persistent, "doing" . . . but doing what? This book will answer that question for the readers. It offers practical, doable, step-by-step suggestions. The author recognizes the value of self-improvement books and recommends several of them early in this volume. But the inspiration of those books, sooner or later, requires action. Someone has to take the steps that produce achievement. That someone, the author explains, is you. This book presents sixteen specific steps that will guide the reader in a career change. These steps take time and effort. They require patience, persistence, perseverance, along with a hard-nosed acceptance of reality. But they will enable you TO DO WHAT YOU WANT TO DO IF WHAT YOU'RE DOING AIN'T WHAT YOUU WANT TO DO.
