good book; good advice; however, career direction/advice is not compatible with ministry

I read this book cover to cover, highlighting all the way. Even today, many of the topics are relevant. It is written in a straight foward no-nonsense manner, that does not waste time. Great tips, some of which I plan to implement.

I agree with the general tenets: make money; don't grow, change; take charge; and become a mercenary or create Yourself.com. However, the rules for doing so come across as being far too New Yorker, far too lawyer, and far too baby boomer. Furthermore, there are blatant contradictions (don't have meetings in restaurants; work out of restaurants if possible), and I couldn't accept the reliance on canned scripting. ( )
