Your Route To Success, is much more then a how to guide; to buy, own, and operate a route business. The book is about my own, hands-on experience so it's personal, real, practical, honest and sincere. How I managed to buy, own, and operate the route business for twenty-one years, and of all places (the capital of the world N.Y.C.). Remember the famous saying; "If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere." Throughout the book my message is, to inspire, motivate, empower, and give a practical advice, as well as steps for the reader to take to succeed and improve his way of life. As route owner, just imagine for a moment, that for the next ten, twenty years, or more you no longer have to be concerned about job and income security, for you and your family. Having that peace of mind is priceless, especially in today's economy and job market. How about the freedom and independence in deciding how many days and hours you want to work, and the kind of life you wish to build for you and your family. In most cases route business is an already established business, so it provides immediate and secured steady income. Over many years the route business has been very good to me, and my family. In writing this book is a way of giving back, to the business that I love. It just might be the perfect small business for owner-operator. True success in life is; "When people benefit from your actions." My wish and hope is to help individuals who are hardworking, disciplined, responsible, self-starters, who believe in self-reliance and family values, to get into their own small business and succeed. It's about showing and making a very practical, and convincing case throughout the book, how an average individual, (without special training or college diploma), but with above average; desire, discipline, attitude, and work ethic, opportunities still exist to be self-employed and succeed. It's about you, being in control of your life, your future, and not, your boss. Throughout the book I tell it like it is. I don't paint a rosy picture or sugar coat anything. I point out that elevator to success is broken, that you have to use the stairs, one step at the time. I know, of no magic formula for success, and for fast and easy riches' that anybody can achieve. Success before work only comes in a dictionary. It's also inspiring and motivational book, that makes you think, be aware, and believe; that you can be your own boss, you can do better, yes you can succeed, that opportunities do exist if you persistently keep looking not just give up, and blame everything and everyone for your lack of success. To always be conscious in thinking what is in your best interest, to think about, how you spend your time, money, energies, who you associate with, and so on. Will your everyday habits lead you to success and better you, or failure, despair, and reliance on family, relatives, or the government? Reflection of our lives depends on the choices we make. To have a better life, simply make better choices. Successful people throughout their lives' by far, make the greater number of better choices and decisions, and then the unsuccessful people do. Only part of the book is about the route business, by far more important are the overall teachings and the message of the book. This is the time for one of those better choices that you can make, to buy the book with a promise to read it often, get inspired, motivated, and into action in learning and using the everyday habits that lead and bring success and prosperity to you and your family. I feel like, I did my part to help you succeed. The next step is up to you. I wish you good luck on your journey to; "Your Route To Success."
