This time around I choose a book about Success Secrets for my Career not so much for my business. Kate White has been the editor in chief of five magazines including the cosmopolitan PLUS the author of many other books & also whilst reading discover that she is a mother so this book was right up my alley!

Kate shares ALL of her experiences whilst making it to the top along with how she did it plus what she found works & what does not. My favourite things that  I  walked away with  are the following


1) Drain the Swamp as you slay the alligators! 
LOVE IT totally made so much sense & keeping this one under my belt here is an extract from the book

"when your up to your ass in gnats & alligators, it's easy to forget that the initial objective was to drain the swamp" which means that when your working toward a long term goal (draining the swamp), your time & energy can be eaten up by urgent, daily tasks (slaying alligators) that don't
necessarily aid you in achieving more important future objectives"


2)Devlop a Golden Gut 
Kate states that it is never to soon to begin devloping your gut & there tricks that she has shared that have served her best. I think this was important to me for I know we all have it & most of us choose to ignore it then wallow in the mess had we just followed our GUT! Here are just 1 point that she covers on how to make your golden gut stronger but she covers at least 5 others which are just as a good!

* Just shut up- Once you have learnt to tune in with your gut the secret is to LISTEN TO IT!  she actually got the best advice for this from a lady called Barbara Butcher the chief of staff & director of Forensic Sciences Training Program in New York city she states

"Everything we need to know is around us for the taking as long as we are truly taking it in, I learned early on that if I was told that I was going to investigate a homicde I did but if I remind myself that I was going to investigate the cause of death then I would find the truth!" 

So keeping the mouth shut & absorbing what surrounds can enable you to connect with your gut which in turn makes it golden!

3) My kids are not serial killers yet! 
I just love it how she shared not only career tips & tools but how she handled doing it being a mother. Kate was honest & never sugar coated hence why the chapter is called "My kids are not seril killers YET!" she shared that she was not perfect but she did share important things whilst on the job &
on the home front. My favourite part was how she explains when you have just picked up the kids from day care or have just stepped foot in the door from work

"You want to give that attention, but you probably feel better able to if you could quickly brush teeth, leaf through the mail, & throw something into the microwave. but kids don't get that concept. At moments like this, I think it pays to be a "just-in-time" mother those ten minutes on the swing set now can save you hours of whining repair later!"

Of course the book covers EVERYTHING else with Career such as

* How to nail a job interview 
* 4 tips for masterfully managing your boss
* What to do when things change within your job/career
* How to own a room
* How to come up with bold brilliant idea's 
* Time Management 
* Men, Love & Success 


& much much much more that  she has either been given, learnt, discovered or created herself throughout her amazing professional life!

The book is set within the industry of working for large corporation or in a Magazine company but you can implement loads of what Kate has written about in any Career small or large, business or no business I know I did.

My suggestion is that this book can be read by anyone that would like to reach a goal of having a successful career & how to do it whilst keeping your true yourself intact. It would be HIGHLY suggested to those of a younger age to get a head start plus starting your career off in the right direction!
