這一本書根據科學家研究成功的研究結論所編寫，一共包含100則成功的要訣。每個要訣分成三部分引述：

1. 第一部分：根據標題(成功要訣)發揮

因此這是一本「很科學」的書，有憑有據，讓讀者更信服，也讓人產生自信，並掌握成功之鑰。

100則成功要訣的標題很吸引人：

15. Winners Are Made, Not Born

21. Remember Who You Are and Where You Are

49. Leadership Is Contagious

54. Whet Your Appetite for Success

82. Find Your Own Path

書中有些話語對我來說，真是心有戚戚焉。

1. I'm an obsessive reader. Every time you read a book, you get ideas. Then you introduce your ideas into your workplace. You make more work for yourself, but you make that work better. (p.30)

2. Great thinkers notice patterns. (p.62)

3. Instead, active listening, investing ourselves in what others are saying, is the only way we can learn from others and adapt what we have to say to correspond to the other person's perspective. (p.88)

4. Choose a particular area that is crucial to what you do, and learn everything you  can about it. (p. 122)

5. Every student has the capacity to learn more. (p.125)

6. Whether at home or work, people who find their lives fulfilling care about those around them. (p.132)

7. Be realistic about yourself. (p.160)

8. You really have to have empathy for other people, how they see the same thing. (p.175)

9. In truth, people who work hard to get something right tend to keep working hard to get it even better. (p.176)

10. Your goals must engage all of you. (p.194)

這是一本讓人更目標導向，專注努力，但又能人際關係圓融的成功指導手冊。用心體會，成功在握！
