Not one, not two, but 65 life-changing / proven techniques to win the battle over anxiety and take charge of your life! Anxiety – that horrible feeling of dreading something – is usually a normal part of life. And that’s the catch: usually… When it starts to manifest as a nagging voice filling your head with crippling doubt, it becomes a lingering problem, one that doesn’t remove its grip from you easily. But it’s only anxiety, right? You can distract yourself, get some sleep, or pop some pills, and it will go away. What more can it do to you, except make you worry more?
Publisher's Summary
Roll up your sleeves & fix the problem!
ABC Hurricane Shutters, a Florida-based company, was on the verge of Chapter 11 bankruptcy, having recorded losses in each of the preceding three years. In From Red to Black: A Business Turnaround, Robert S. Curry shares his thought process, action steps, and profit improvement recommendations throughout his turnaround engagement at the shutter company. After Bob’s first meeting with the owner, he developed a detailed plan for recovery and was engaged the next day. Within four months, the company had made a complete turnaround with nearly every “must-do” completed. Thanks to Bob’s efforts, ABC was well on its way to becoming the most profitable hurricane shutter company in Florida.
While every business in distress is unique, Bob’s philosophy is that everyone in the company has to roll up their sleeves and work hard to fix the problems or find a new place to work. Effective communication is paramount. He begins every engagement by listening and says of this particular business turnaround, “I spent the first two weeks listening to managers and staff, all of whom had a perception of what was wrong with the company. My father told me a long time ago, “God gave you two ears and one mouth, so listen, and you will learn!” and so that’s what I did - and always do.”
The takeaway lessons in this illustrative story are sure to spark your ideas on how to turn a troubled company around and help you take proactive steps toward financial stability and profit. As Bob always says, there is no substitute for a strong leader to make a company profitable. Listen to From Red to Black, and you will learn how to be that leader.

Hands down the best book on business
I have read many books on business from classical texts to modern books on innovation. This is hands down the best book on business that I have read.
It takes the seeming complex and distills it into a practical guide for any business. Allowing readers to look over the shoulder of a professional turnaround expert learning as a mentee would. Told in the formatt of a diary/Journal watching the author implement great systems into a struggling business.
Covering all aspects of a business;
-Accounting
-Sales
-HR
-Security issues
-Management
-Production
As well as many others.
