Turn Setbacks into Greenbacks by Willie Jolley Book Review

I love reading and I love reading business books that are inspirational in their matter. There is a new book that I was able to review that I want to share with you today.

XM Sirius host Willie Jolley, dubbed “America’s Comeback King” by Success Magazine and author of the book Turn Setbacks into Greenbacks, is on a national tour sponsored by E*Trade, helping women get back on their feet, advance their careers and make more money.

Here’s some of his advice he shares with women on going up in down times and getting ahead in life:

~ Don’t just look for a job; make a job! Financial success is linked to thought, so get creative and start thinking like the CEO of Y.O.U., Inc. Follow the examples of Mary Kay Ash, Lillian Vernon and Debbi Fields. What need do people have that you can fill? How can you use your expertise and passion and get paid for it? What’s something that other businesses in your field aren’t doing that you could do to be successful?

~ Get around other successful women. It really is true that who you hang around is who you become. Who are you sharing ideas with and networking with? Get around successful women through in-person networking groups, online and anyway you can. Solicit their feedback and follow what they’ve done.

~ Don’t let your pride poison your prosperity. Stop trying to put up a facade of success and stop competing with other women, and get real. For now, any work that is moral and legal is honorable – even if you feel you are overqualified. The classifieds are full of help wanted ads and right or wrong, many companies are only hiring people presently working. Temporarily doing something with a lower skill set is okay because it may be the only way to the career and pay you really want.

…And there is plenty more!

I love this book. It is a very positive, upbeat book with tons of great advise in it. Mr. Jolley brings great insight to a time when people can be frustrated by their circumstances and feel the weight of hopelessness surrounding them. He brings a message of hope and a Can Do attitude that really can help you, if you choose that path.

Mr. Jolley speaks of making up your mind to thrive and not just survive. He speaks of mindset – determination- persistence- creativity and positivity. I love the references to specific scriptures that speak to you and reinforce the message given. In fact several of my favorite passages were included and that reinforced to me that was walking the right path in business.

Overcoming negative thinking and moving forward to create a change in your life is a topic that is much needed in today’s economic climate. I think Mr. Jolley’s approach is strong and inspiring and he offfers sounds advise that I know I am going to work on. We all have places in our life that we can strengthen and improve.

The book is very easy to read and I enjoyed reading it so much that my husband is now reading it as well. I think that you will enjoy it too if you are looking for a hand up and a kick start to a newly created life

Jolley’s advice is more than just theories: In 1991, he had only $200 in the bank while trying to support his family and launch his own business. Today he’s financially sound; the host of one of the most popular Sirius XM talk shows, The Willie Jolley Wealthy Ways Radio Show; CEO of Willie Jolley Worldwide; a best-selling author and international speaker/consultant. He’s also one of the people credited with saving The Ford Motor Company from bankruptcy a few years ago, and now it’s posting billion dollar profits.

Grab his book found in bookstores and Amazon and enjoy!
