I am delighted you chose to pick up No Condition is Permanent! I really mean it. There are so many books you could have bought and read. There is, also, so much that you could have done with your time.

Yet, you have chosen to spend your time with me. What’s more, you have spent your hard-earned money hoping to find something meaningful to better your life.

First, I want to tell you that you may not agree with everything I have to say. That’s good. In fact, one percent of you will find this book offensive. The rest of you will devour every word.

Bill Cosby reminds us that the secret to success is found by not trying to please everybody. Winners know that it is virtually impossible to meet everyone’s needs. Thus, I have chosen to focus on the 99% of you who will be pleased.

Second, I want to say up front that I don’t have all the answers. In fact, I am still seeking just like you are. For many of you, my role is not to teach you anything new. It is to remind you of what you already know.

For others of you, some of the things I talk about will sound too basic. Success, whatever that means to you, is not usually something deep and complicated. It is most often found in the mastery of the basics.

I read that when Vince Lombardi took over the losing Green Bay Packers, a reporter asked him what plans he had to turn the team around. Mr. Lombardi replied that he was not going to turn the team around.

He said that he was going to get brilliant on the basics. “…Brilliant on the basics.” Do you get it? Remember this: your accomplishments in life will not be determined by how much you know. They will be determined by how much you do with what you know. Action is the hinge upon which notable achievement revolves.
