  • (1888PressRelease) December 13, 2011 - San Jose, California - Some people need a little motivation and reassurance to allow themselves to see beyond what others think is possible, wise, or practical, while others just need a little inspiration to use their imagination wisely so they can become part of a solution not part of a problem. Advice my Parents Gave Me, and Other Lessons I learned From My Mistakes (ISBN 978-1466311053, CreateSpace 2011)-may just provide that motivation, reassurance, and inspiration to bring dreams into reality.

    Rodolfo Costa, in his ultimate inspirational collection, shares advice from his parents, lessons learned from mistakes he made, pointers on how to be happy, and wisdom he picked up along the way. Advice My Parents Gave Me and Other Lessons I Learned From My Mistakes is described on its front cover as " 409 thoughts, quotes, lessons, ideas, suggestions, reminders, words of advice and encouragement to lead a successful, rewarding, peaceful, happy and fulfilling life."

    Every page of the book is filled with practical, thought-provoking, "bite-sized" ideas and suggestions to encourage the reader to move forward to a successful and happy life, while becoming a better person in the process. Divided into 16 chapters, it touches on attitude, responsibility, goals, positive self-esteem, success, love, forgiveness, happiness, gratitude, among other topics. These topics are enhanced with quotes from both historical figures (Henry Ford, Thomas Jefferson, Mark Twain, Marcus Aurelius … ) and contemporary ones (Michael Jordan, Les Brown, Denis Waitley, Anthony Robbins …) which boost Costa's message quite nicely.

    Readers will be delighted to find golden nuggets from the author such as "It may take little time to get where you want to be, but if you pause and think for a moment, you will notice that you are no longer where you were. Do not stop-keep going" These words of inspiration will allow readers to reflect on their personal circumstances, so they can make the proper adjustments to move forward towards their desired success.

    Beyond just inspiration, Costa also challenges the reader by asking why so many have dreams but few ever accomplish them. People say they want certain things, but not knowing how to obtain them, they make little effort to pursue their goals. In truth, everything the heart desires is achievable if people just practice, persistence, personal responsibility, and making the necessary choices to let happiness into their lives. By overcoming fear and shaking off limiting viewpoints, anyone can succeed, and Costa is ready to walk readers through the changes that lead to success.

    Advice My Parents Gave Me ... 409 thoughts of inspiration and motivation to share with family and friends ... and if the "thought" is what counts when it comes to gift giving, then any of these thoughts could be the gift that quite possibly make a difference, and count towards the enhancement and fulfillment of someone's life.
