SYNOPSIS: The journey through life is the longest and most important trip you'll ever take, so it deserves the clearest and most accurate road map possible. That road map is your own long-term planning, which, if properly devised, should comprise a detailed strategy for reaching your future goals. The long term has a persistent habit of becoming the present rather quickly, which seems continually to amaze people. Since most people in the Western world live only from day to day, it puts you at a decided advantage if you are among the few who take the trouble to layout a detailed, realistic strategy for the future, based on a sound perception of the world around you. And that, says Robert Ringer, is the key--an accurate perception of the realities of today's world. This is not a book that debates how the world should be. It is a book about achieving happiness and success in the real world--the world as it exists today. The difference is crucial, because the ides and strategies needed to surmount the obstacles of today's world are quite different in degree and scope from those that were required even ten or twenty years ago. Today some of the most cherished values and beliefs of yesterday are considered passe, while some of the worst vices of the past are now accepted and even encouraged. As a result, we live in a world turned upside down, which means that most people today are--morally speaking--standing on their heads! You, however, have it within your power to stand right side up if you so choose. History emphatically tells us that the resourcefulness of human beings is virtually boundless. Those blessed with intelligence, marketable skills, imagination, ambition, and/or a penchant for hard work usually do well under any circumstances. In the final analysis, it is within your power to achieve happiness and success. Your archenemy is procrastination. Robert Ringer firmly believes that the one commodity now in short supply is time. He therefore urges you to heed his Timing Theory, which states: Conditions are never right at the right time; the timing is always wrong! If you're waiting for everything to be just right before taking action, you are in possession of a foolproof excuse for failure. Whether or not you take action really depends upon how badly you want something. If your desire for happiness and financial success in the years ahead is great enough, you'll stop making excuses and start making plans. For, as Robert Ringer says, "All the knowledge in the world is useless without action." - and - In his most remarkable work to date, Robert Ringer, author of the legendary bestsellers, Winning Through Intimidation, Looking Out For #1, and Restoring the American Dream, again addresses himself to solutions that work in the real world. And, in the 1980's, the real world is a world gone mad! How You Can Find Happiness During the Collapse of Western Civilization is packed with vintage Ringer ideas, insights, and stories, including: Robert Ringer's three guarantees--not predictions, but guarantees--about the future, all of them startling. The sometimes hilarious, always thought-provoking, trials and tribulations of The Tortoise, in such episodes as the Battle of Little Big Pie, the Time magazine double cross, and a day in court with Legalpunk. A treasury of new Tortoise theories, including the Little-White-Lie Theory, Haunted World Theory, Exception Theory, Salvage Theory, Shrink-It-Down-to-Size Theory, and Timing Theory. The Big Liars--government, liberals, the media, and attorneys--and how to deal with them. Wisdom-filled anecdotes about friends and adversaries of The Tortoise, both new and old, such as Trader Bill, High Noon Harry, Ollie Oink, Black Bart, Red Baron, Bobby Beaver, Chubby Chuckle, and Darby Dan. The author's analysis and grouping of investments into four unique and explicit categories--Capital Black Holes, Capital Crapshoots, Capital Question Marks, and Capital Guarantees. Most important, the objective of this book is to help you to answer three very important questions about your life in light of the world as it exists today: 1. What do I want out of life? 2. What will it cost me (in time, energy, pain, and sacrifice)? 3. Am I willing to pay the necessary price? Robert J. Ringer is the author of three legendary bestsellers, Winning Through Intimidation, Looking Out For #1, and Restoring the American Dream, which have been read by more than 10 million people. He is also the publisher of The Tortoise Report, an exciting monthly newsletter that addresses itself to unique insights, ideas, and strategies for achieving financial success. Major articles about Mr. Ringer have appeared in such publications as Time, The Wall Street Journal, Fortune, People, Barron's, Newsweek, US, and The New York Times, among others, and he has appeared on virtually every major talk show in America. He has often been credited with setting the moral tone of the 70's by championing the right of every individual to.
