Winners never Cheat - Book Review

I recently just finished the book Winners never Cheat by Jon M. Huntsman.

I believe anyone that is in business should read this book. This book makes you think about a lot of things, from negotiating deals, to dealing with vendors and competitors. Jon gives a lot of personal examples which gives what he talks about even more creditability, not to mention that he is a billionaire. In this book he brings out what his reputation is amongst other CEO's about what a great negotiator. The interesting thing is though is that when he negotiates he negotiates with both hands on the table. But he will stick to his principles even if it means he doesn't get the deal done. He has a firm belief that his principles are greater than getting a multi-million dollar deal done. Every example he gave when he stuck to his principles in the end he was better off for not going through with a deal.

Like I said earlier in this post, anyone that is in business should read this book. I give it 2 thumps up.

Book Review

For some reason that I can't really explain myself I am starting to read more now. I know reading it a good thing but I have really never liked it. Maybe if I review books that I read it will help me continue the reading. Just so you are aware the books that I am reading are not just fiction, but I'm also reading books that hopefully will help me out in business as well.

The book that I just finished is called "The Last Patriot" by Brad Thor.

This book was very entertaining for me. I actually stayed up one night until 2:00 readying this book because something would happen at the end of each chapter that would cause me to want to ready to find out what was going to happen. The author of this book is a former Navy Seal and worked in the Home Land security department. So this book is a CIA type book. I really enjoy stories like this. I think it is because I have always been fascinated with the things the military, CIA, FBI do without our knowledge to protect our country.

If you like those type of stories I would highly recommend this book. The only thing that I didn't really like is how it ended, but I believe he did the right thing based on the story line.
