For thirteen years while on four U.S. Olympic track teams, Henry Marsh competed in international track and field, setting a still-unbroken American record in the 3,000-meter steeplechase. He finished fourth, however, in his run for glory at the 1984 Olympics. What he learned in his repeatedly thwarted bids for Olympic gold is that the highest degree of reward and satisfaction is to be found in the unswerving pursuit of personal excellence rather than in merely winning a competition.Marsh's plan, which he has shared for the past decade in keynote speeches, sales meetings, and corporate productivity seminars for hundreds of major corporations across the country, provides each reader the foundation for clarifying dreams, rooting out negative influences, setting priorities, establishing plans of action, and meeting goals. The cornerstone of Marsh's philosophy is the determination of one's guiding values. Once one clearly defines and makes a commitment to these values, Marsh explains, one will reflexively make decisions based on them.
