How Successful People Win: Using Bunkhouse Logic to Get What You Want in Life Hardcover - 2006

by Ben Stein


From the publisher

How Successful People Win is a serious self-help book using as its central metaphor the life of the cowboy and his behavior as he leaves his bunkhouse. Based upon a lifetime of observation of the successful and how they got that way, Ben Stein suggests that you imitate the determination, inner mobility, activity, flexibility&#8212and the refusal to indulge in self-pity&#8212of the cowboy in order to get what you want out of life. The idea is that if you never indulge in making excuses, refuse to let other people&#8217s hangups get in your way, and move deliberately toward clearly thought-out goals, you <i>will </i>get where you want to go. Just as the cowboy refuses to allow himself to get sidetracked by trivia, so can <i>you</i> refuse to allow life&#8217s inevitable challenges and distractions mar your own success and happiness. The choice is yours.

First line

Bunkhouse Logic is easy to follow if you understand where its name comes from.

About the author

Ben Stein can be seen talking about finance on Fox TV news every week. He is known to many as a movie and television personality, but has probably worked more in personal and corporate finance than anything else. He has written about finance for Barron’s and The Wall Street Journal for decades and contributes regularly to the AARP’s Modern Maturity (now AARP: The Magazine). He was one of the chief busters of the junk bond frauds of the 1980s, has been a long-time critic of corporate executives’ self-dealing, and has written several self-help books about personal finance.
