Attitude will be your judge! We will discuss stress and attitude later in the book but let me say this, why let stress run your life? It will only bring that heart attack on quicker and 99.99% of the time you have no control over the things we stress about. Do you worry about your job? Yes, well think of it this way, if you get laid off you can go home and have a nap. There should never be a reason to fire you, if there is you must have misinterpreted this book. With the correct attitude and apparent work ethic you will travel far in whatever you decide to do. This can work for things outside of work as well, such as any relationship, you only need to adjust and adapt for the situation at hand. Remember even if you don’t feel in a good mood keep up the façade of a good attitude.
If you are a lazy individual who just cannot get a head or is always in trouble, then this is the book of your dreams. We will help you turn those lazy habits into efficient means to get ahead. Goofing off will no longer get you into trouble. Your boss and co-workers will be amazed by the turn around and your smell.
Do you work your ass off and get no recognition and you do not have enough ‘me time’? We can help you out by decreasing your work load, get at least some recognition and finally have that time to write the book you always wanted to write but just never had time for. Remember when push comes to shove you can always increase your pace but if you are already working 110%, chances are you will not be able to make your self look better just before layoffs.
Remember, no matter how bad things get you can always buy this book again and help Rod and myself attain our dreams.
ROD
Who REALLY likes to work? I mean lets face it. Sure there are people who "love their job", but these are usually the same people who "do work", or show up "on time", or "wear pants". These people are sick, and the sad thing is that they don't know it yet. We hope to change that.
Thankfully, there are many of us. The world is populated with people who if given the opportunity would just as soon watch 8 – 12 hours (or more) of television a day, read, or even just sit there staring blankly out the window rather than put in a whole day's work. This attitude can be attributed to many things, ranging from a poor work environment to a healthy love of daytime television. But the leading cause is simply the desire to do what YOU want to do. Do you think I really want to work on this book? No, of course not. I'd rather be in Hawaii, sitting on a beach listening to music and watching the ocean. (By the way, thank you for buying this book and getting me one step closer to that dream.)
Getting to the point, Bob and I have realized that there are a great many people on the planet who are working hard, needlessly. We know that our philosophy can change the world, by teaching the masses that you do not need to pour yourself into what you are doing. Don't give 110% that's crazy. You should only be giving, at maximum, 73%. Save some for yourself. There is plenty of work to do… and thanks to us; you will see that there are plenty of ways to get around doing it.
Now having said that, I can't stress enough that work needs to be done. I know it seems to be a contradiction, but a complete lack of productivity will have your ass landing on the street faster then you can say, "My dog ate my homework". As stated, using the right technique, you can easily get through your day with 73% effort. Think about it, that leaves 27% for you! Now given practice, and time, you can probably kick that up to 40% you, and 60% work. In which case… Mission Accomplished.
To sum everything up into one word, that word would be efficient. All you really need to do is become efficient at what you do, and you'll be half way to using half your ass. In a perfect world, you can spend two – three hours first thing in the morning completing everything you need to get done. That leaves the rest of the day for you. From that point on, it's just filling in the time. If Boredom starts to rear it's ugly head, just cut that work up so that it lasts the entire day.
The overall goal of this book is to give you the ability to goof off, and do your own thing at work, while coming out smelling like roses.
