by Barbara Stanny
On This Page
Description
Quietly and steadily, the number of women making six figures or more is increasing and continues to rise at a rate faster than for men. From entrepreneurs to corporate executives, from white-collar professionals to freelancers and part-timers, women are forging careers with considerable financial success. In Secrets of Six-Figure Women, Barbara Stanny, journalist, motivational speaker, and financial educator, identifies the seven key strategies of female high earners: A Profit Motive, show more Audacity, Resilience, Encouragement, Self-Awareness, Non-Attachment, and Financial Know-How. Based on extensive research and hundreds of interviews, including more than 150 women whose annual earnings range from $100,000 to $7 million, Stanny turns each of the six-figure traits into a specific strategy for upping earnings. By rigorously fine-tuning them, listeners can, step-by-step, climb the income ladder. show lessTags

I try not to read too much of this kind of book these days, but this caught me in just the right mood for a bit of a motivational/cheerleading session as I was walking through the local library last weekend. I don't think it's going to propel me into the upper echelons of earning, but it did inspire some productive-feeling reflection and planning.
Terrific book with useful insight on how to be a high earner. Several concepts really hit me, including: you have to work smarter, not necessarily harder. And don't be afraid of failure. The author interviewed both high earners and low earners and provides illustrations of what works and what doesn't. Great read for women who want to push their career into the six-figure range.
I'm loving this book--highly recommended if you've ever felt that you're not earning up to your potential. Inspiring and has good exercises (now if I could just find a book that will make me do exercises!)
