AUTHORS NOTE

Realize that everything connects to everything else

~ Leonardo da Vinci

Leonardo and Coco Chanel were just like you and I. They suffered at times from self-doubt, they had family hassles, some of their efforts resulted in failure, people jealous of their talent tried to undermine them, money worries meant that at times they had to suck it up and do work the y didnt enjoy, and at times they he had to work for bullies and tyrants.

But they didnt let obstacles stop them from doing the work they loved. The pursuit of knowledge born of their own enquiry and experience ultimately led to their success. They also learned from experts he admired, both past and present.

I created the Art of Success series to reveal how the success secrets and strategies of extraordinary artists like Leonardo da Vinci and Coco Chanel can help people like you and I succeedpersonally and professionally.

Successful artists have always struggled, but they persevered anyway. And it is this willingness to pursue their calling in the face of many challenges that holds lessons for us all.

Your Concise Guide to Success

The Art of Success is a concise guide to succeeding in business and in life. My vision was simple: a few short, easy to digest tips for time-challenged people who were looking for inspiration and practical strategies to encourage positive change.

I knew that people didnt need a wad of words to feel inspired, gain clarity and be stimulated to take action.

In coaching and counselling sessions Id encourage my clients to ask a question they would like answered. The questions could be specific, such as, How can I make a living from my passion? Or vague, for example, What do I most need to know? They were always amazed at how readily answers flowed.

In this era of information obesity the need for simple, life-affirming messages is even more important. If you are looking for inspiration and practical tips, in short, sweet sound bites, this guide is for you.

Similarly, if you are a grazer, or someone more methodical, this guide will also work for you. Pick a section or page at random, or work through the principles sequentially. I encourage you to experiment, be open-minded and try new things. I promise you will achieve outstanding results.

Let experience be your guide, as it was Leonardos. Give your brain a well-needed break. Let go of why and embrace how you feel or how you want to feel. Honor the messages from your intuition and follow your path with heart.

Laura, who at one stage seemed rudderless career-wise, did just that. She was guided to Principle Seven: Fruitful Collaborations. Following that, her motivation to live and work like those she looked up to sparked a determination to start her own business. It was that simple.

At the time of writing Ive just turned to Principle Eight: Pursue Your Own Truth. Its a timely reminder that no matter what others may think of this book, it works for me. The following quote may also speak to you: I cant give you the recipe for success but I can failure. Try to please everyone.

How This Book Will Help You

Whenever Im in a slump or needing an inspirational boost I turn to people who are smarter or more skilled than me for good advice.

Ive done the same with qualities Ive wanted to develop, like patience. What would Mother Theresa do now? I asked many years ago. Mother Theresa wouldnt shout! She wouldnt lose her cool. Shed send loving kindness and smile. And thats what I did whenever I got frustrated.

Leonardo da Vinci and Coco Chanel were super smart! As I wrote The Art of Success, I applied the strategies Im sharing with you to help me finish this book and make progress with my historical novel, Mona Lisas Secret.

If youve been procrastinating, experiencing self-doubt, feeling fearful, or just getting in your own way, youre in good company, Leonardo's been there. Ive been there tooas have many successful people. Guess what, getting in your own way is normal!

I promise there are solutions to the problems youre currently facingand youll find them in the pages that follow.

Dig into this book and let Leonardo da Vinci and Coco Chanel be your mentors, inspiration and guides as they call forth your passions, purpose and potential.

Through the teachings of Leonardo and Coco, extensive research into the mysteries of motivation, success and fulfilment, and my own personal experience and professional success with clients as a holistic psychologist, The Art of Success will help you accelerate success. Together, Leonardo, Coco and I will guide you to where you need to go next, and give you practical steps to achieve success.

I was once told that I had the soul of an artist. Actively discouraged in childhood, for a long time Id closed off that side of me. I began my career as a bank-teller, then as an accountant, then as a recruitment consultant, followed by more business-minded careers. I even spent time in prisonon a work assignment.

Each time I went further and further away from who I truly was and the things that gave me joy. Leonardo was luckierhe was encouraged to pursue his natural inclinationCoco found it on her own. My hope is that after reading The Art of Success youll find your path with heart too.

Whether your calling is the world of commerce, or seeking answers in the stars, its never too late to be yourself.

Step into this ride joyfully and start creating your best life today.
