Very Helpful

I only wish that this book was around when I was younger. It would have saved me a lot of money and stress.

A Must Read!

The Practical Guide is a must have for every college student and aspiring businessperson. It provides valuable information that is not taught in the classroom. It focuses on time management, living a healthy balanced lifestyle, managing finances, as well as setting and achieving goals. Jim's story is one that is both inspiring and insightful. He has a lot of life experiences, and in this book he shares the ones that led him down the path of success. The Ultimate Life Experience, The Financial Stability Table, and The Money Flow Rules breakdown seemingly complicated topics and makes them easily comprehensible. This book is a perfect graduation gift for any high school or college student to help them get ahead, so they don't have to learn these life lessons the hard way!

How To Set A Vision For Your Life And Execute

In "The Practical Guide to Exceptional Living: Creating and Living the Life of Your Dreams", Jim Garland provides a practical and thought provoking examination of his own success as an entrepreneur and distills his experience into lessons which can help everyone achieve big goals and small goals alike. Jim Garland frames a holistic view of lifetime success in the areas that matter most in our lives - relationships, health, faith, money, and career/entreprenuerial pursuits. Jim will challenge you to think big - "design the life that you want" and provide the tactical framework to move you towards your goals. The message resonates because it comes from a self-made man who combines an action orientation, blue collar work ethic and an obsessive vision for the life he wants for his family while blocking out negative people and situations. I have listend to the author speak and his energy and passion for life mastery is electric. I have recommended this book to business associates and the graduate students in my university course. I have used Jim's maxims to make progress in some challenging areas in my own life. Anyone with an interest in taking control of their goal setting and achievement will find value in Jim's process and recommendations. I srongly endorse the book!

A great gift for mom or dad.

A must read for entrepreneurs and small business owners and anyone struggling to find that work/life/family balance that we all strive for. Author talks about his personal experiences, gives some great advice and will help change the way you look and think about your life and the things that are important to you. Makes for a great gift for mother's day or father's day.
