The German poet Theodor Fontane once said: ""A good aphorism contains the wisdom of an entire book in one sentence."" The Art of a Successful Life goes a step further, collating a myriad of quotes which all offer insights to inspire you to think about yourself, your life and your goals, and give you the confidence and strength to cope with difficult situations.

In this book, you will find quotes from a range of thinkers, from the physicist Stephen Hawking to the artist Michelangelo, and from entrepreneurs such as Henry Ford, Steve Jobs and Warren Buffett to Confucius, Cicero, Schopenhauer and Goethe. In bringing them together, the author provides an original and practical guide to everyday life. This, alongside the 20-week success program featured at the end of each chapter, will provide you with the inspiration and strength to cope successfully with a variety of situations in all areas of your life.

Reviews for The Art of a Successful Life: The Wisdom of The Ages from Confucius to Steve Jobs.

The Power of Capitalism ""This wide-ranging tome, which covers economic systems across China, Africa, Germany, the US and the UK exploring the power of capitalism, may not persuade staunch anti-capitalists of the author's alternative viewpoint. However, it certainly offers a robust challenge to anti-capitalist views and provides a series of well-defined and researched arguments in favour of a capitalist society."" CITY A.M. The Wealth Elite ""Rainer Zitelmann's study of the psychology of the super-rich is an ambitious project. Few could be better qualified for it than Dr Zitelmann - an historian, sociologist, journalist, businessman and investor. There has been no comparable study and it is a compelling read for all who need to understand the characteristics and motivations of rich entrepreneurs."" Michael Maslinski, The Financial Times
