From the Author
The book Personal Accountability is the result of a lifetime of watching everybody blame everybody for everything. I've discovered that if I can avoid Victim Thinking, Blame, and Procrastination and choose the High Road - the Path to Personal Accountability - great things can happen in all areas of my life. I believe we tend to teach to others what we need to hears ourselves, so I want you to know this material is for me. As a father of four, a husband of 19 years, a professional keynote speaker, and an author, I need to practice Personal Accountability in my life in all the roles I play.
I sold leadership and sales training to corporations for 9 years and sat inside a 1,000 firms in all industries. I watched as people asked questions like "Why do we have to go through all this change?", "When is someone going to train me?", "When are we going to find good people?" and "Who made the mistake?" Then, I realized if we could just stop, in the moment, and make a better choice by asking The Question Behind the Question (QBQ) we'd prosper. A QBQ looks like "How can I develop myself?", "What can I do to adapt to the changing world?", "How can I contribute?" and "What can I do to be a more effective coach/leader today?" These questions put me on that High Road - the path to Personal Accountability.
The book has two parts. Part I is all about the QBQ, how to use it, and what it can do for our lives at work and home. Part II explores the Pillar Principles, ideas like Courage, Excellence, Ownership, Trust, and Integrity. These timeless truths are brought to life using the QBQ methodology of accountable thinking.
The book is story-based, light hearted yet life changing, and 12 point type, short paragraphs, and plenty of "white space" for those who are frightened of 300 pages!
Please, I invite you to learn, change, and grow. If, after reading the book, you'd ever like to discuss the content with me, call 800-774-0737. Enjoy!

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Zoom Books East, Lynden, Washington, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
