Vanessa interview Dr. Barry Franklin. Next to food and clothing, achieving personal and professional success is at the very top of most people’s hierarchy of human needs. But life’s opportunities, career advancement and financial success don’t just happen – you create them. The recently-published book, “GPS for Success: Skills, Strategies and Secrets of Superachievers,” (Productivity Press, NY, NY), provides a detailed roadmap for young people to achieve their dreams and a fulfilling life. The book was research-based and written over several years by Barry Franklin, PhD, for recent graduates and young career professionals. During an esteemed 45-year career motivating patients to make lifestyle changes to prevent or halt heart disease, Franklin’s secondary passion has been studying behavioral characteristics of highly successful people in all walks of life. He scoured the world’s literature and interviewed highly successful people to provide a “one-stop” resource of proven and practical recommendations for future success. www.drbarryfranklin.com.
