New York Times best-selling author Dr. John C. Maxwell has a message for you, and for today's corporate culture fixated on talent above all else: TALENT IS NEVER ENOUGH. People everywhere are proving him right. Read the headlines, watch the highlights, or just step out your front door: Some talented people reach their full potential, while others self-destruct or remain trapped in mediocrity. What makes the difference? Maxwell, the go-to guru for business professionals across the globe, insists that the choices people make-not merely the skills they inherit-propel them onto greatness. Among other truths, successful people know that: - Belief lifts your talent.
- Initiative activates your talent.
- Focus directs your talent.
- Preparation positions your talent.
- Practice sharpens your talent.
- Perseverance sustains your talent.
- Character protects your talent. . . . and more!!
It's what you add to your talent that makes the greatest difference. With authentic examples and time-tested wisdom, Maxwell shares thirteen attributes you need to maximize your potential and live the life of your dreams. You can have talent alone and fall short of your potential. Or you can have talent plus, and really stand out.

 Book review
Great book, full of insights. As promised! New without blemish! Fast shipping, too. I would buy again from this sender.
I seriously like this book. It doesn't only talk about talent.
At first, I don't know why, but I never really like John Maxwell. Something about him. I don't know.
This book proved me wrong. Now that I have finished with this book, now, I'm reading his other books
 Coach
I spend a great deal of time training talented or elite athletes and am always looking for ways to rethink training protocols. I found this to be a book with lots of interesting ideas especially as regards teaching or training talented people/athletes. Did not agree with several of his points but the author made me rethink and challenge several of my exsiting beliefs and paradigms. Worth the read.
Inspirational guide to maximizing your talent
The professional sports world is filled with athletes who have extraordinary talent and yet end up with mediocre careers. Of course, every field has people who have failed to achieve their individual talent potential. Why? Talent alone is not remarkable. In fact, it is commonplace. What is special is "talent plus," the term leadership author John C. Maxwell uses to describe the achievement level of people who maximize their talents. Maxwell says you must add effort to talent to make it matter. He describes 13 sterling attributes people should strive to build within themselves to maximize their talents. getAbstract recommends his message to those who coach, mentor or encourage others. In any business or activity, Maxwell contends, talent "is only a starting point." How you develop your talent is what counts, and this book will show you how.
Every talented person should listen to these cds.
I continually listen to these over and over on a daily basis. Excellent advice turning talent into success. Great stuff.
