Start Where You are
Life Lessons from the Pursuit of Happyness

By Chris Gardner 
2009 Edition

 Brand New!!

Chris Gardner, who memorably recounted his journey from homelessness to high finance in THE PURSUIT OF HAPPYNESS, returns with this self-help guide for folks who find themselves struggling to overcome some of life's many obstacles. Gardner shows how the lessons learned from hardships such as losing a job or a home can become the foundation for a fresh start, as such extreme situations require extraordinary solutions which can disrupt the repetitive cycles of career and responsibility which end up trapping many people.

Gardner follows his best-selling memoir, The Pursuit of Happyness, with a collection of 44 lessons that he feels helped make his life successful and that he hopes will help others...
This smart and well-written guide includes excellent suggestions for both everyday life and work, with the last sentence summing up Gardner's message: "Accepting responsibility is accepting that your dreams really can come true."
The result is hopeful and uplifting - not a bad thing to see in these days of economic turmoil. --Library Journal, May 1, 2009

 Ever since the story of his transformation from homeless, single and struggling father to millionaire became known the world over, Chris Gardner - whose life story both inspired the movie "The Pursuit of Happyness" and became a number 1 "New York Times" Bestseller by the same name - has been inundated with two questions: 'How Did You Do It' and 'How Can I Do it Too?'
Gardner's power-packed, transformational reply is the basis of this long-anticipated book. As a departure from standard self-help tomes that promise overnight riches and exclusive secrets for success, Gardner avoids any tilt toward magical thinking by staying with real issues and solutions impacting individuals in all walks of life.
Taking stock of his own credos, including 'The Cavalry Ain't Coming', 'Find Your Button', and 'Seek the Furthest Star' - Gardner's 44 life lessons are earthy, soulful, and always accessible.
With an array of stories from the author's own life, as well as from those he has known or admired, both famous and not.

Book is large hardcover with dustjacket, brand New, so excellent condition. HarperCollins Pub, 2009. See photos.

Overview of Bric-a-brac Corners Terms & Conditions

*****See ‘About Me Page’ for more details*****

Bidding on or buying my listings indicates you have read & agree

with my terms & conditions.

 

·         Checkout my other auctions, I am happy to combine Wins to save on post! Payment for items is due within 7 days of auction close. Should you require more time please notify me & we can work something out. Please refer to the payment options for accepted payment methods.

·         Combining Wins & Purchases- You are more than welcome to have several purchases posted together. It’s a great way to save money! Just E-mail to let me know you are still bidding or watching other items. Please DONOT complete checkout until you have finished bidding on all purchases. When you are ready just request a total & it will follow shortly after.

·           International Bidders I recommend getting a post quote, (if it is not stated in the advert), international post can be very expensive. Payment can be made by PayPal only. Delivery times are a guide only, customs can often delay international deliveries. Parcels are scanned on the way out of Australia & again when they arrive at their destination. I cannot track your parcel, unless it is insured /registered. $9 AU covers up to $100 AU. I can post via Airmail (average 4 to 14 business days) or Sea Mail (10 to 20 weeks). Please E-mail if you need a post quote.

·         Non Paying Bidder alerts will be posted, if no contact has been made within 7 days of auction end. I reserve the right to cancel bids by unregistered users or those with bad feedback. Newbies please only bid if you intend to pay. It costs money & time to advertise items on E-Bay.

·        No Contact from me? If I have not contacted you within 48 hours of auction end, it usually means I am having trouble, some virus software etc, prevents my E-mails getting through & I am not always aware of this. I have the most difficulty with international E-mails, check your trash can, often they are treated as spam mail & sent straight to the trash. Please contact me, either by E-mail or phone (request seller details & my number will be provided by E-Bay).

·          Feedback – Please leave Feedback for me once you have received your Win & are Happy. I try hard not to make mistakes, but should it happen please contact me prior to negative Feedback. My feedback speaks for itself & I always hope to deal with you again in the future. So I will do my best to correct any errors.

·         Post & Handling Costs are not refundable. All my auctions list the prices for Australian Deliveries, please only bid if you agree with these charges. I generally post Win's within 24 hours of payment cleared, Sat. & Sun. excluded, my local Post office is closed. (See my Feedback for post speed). For large or International Win's I visit the Post Office twice a week, (Determined by my three kids’, lol!). I can not be held responsible for an undeliverable address. Please provide a deliverable address in your E-bay details, (update, especially if you have moved).

Pick up from Kogarah, Sydney, 2217 is available on arrangement at no charge.

·         Insurance is always an option; the price quoted is for Australia only. If not listed as available in the advertisement just E-mail me & $3 will cover up to $100. Unfortunately once an item is posted I have no control over damage or loss & will accept no responsibility unless the item is registered /insured. (I think Aussie Post does a brilliant job & I get the credit for it in my feedback, Thanks! However, one in 500 parcels does not make its destination). All items are packed, as I would like to receive them, very well! I use recycled packaging where possible.

 

·                    Please ask any questions before bidding.

 

I am a mother of three young children, who ebays from home between the needs of my three delights. I am a team of one, not a big company. Please excuse any delays, weekends are very hectic & illness in the household can keep me from my computer & the Post Office.

 

Thanks for Looking, Happy Trading!
