Most people plan their lives forward. They take whatever step looks easiest, then the next one, and hope it all works out. Twenty years later, they look up and wonder how they got where they are.
Success in Reverse turns that around. Picture the end of your life first. What do you want the people who knew you to say? Then work backward, one rung at a time, until you know exactly what to do today.
Kip Havard spent nearly thirty years leading technology teams through mergers, system consolidations, and constant change. Along the way he learned that the people who succeed aren't the ones with perfect plans. They're the ones who know where they want to end up and are willing to rebuild the path to get there. In this practical, faith-filled guide, he shows you how to do the same.
Inside, you'll learn how to
- Define what success really means for YOU, not for your neighbor or the world
- Count the cost of your goals before you start, and decide what you will never trade away
- Take the Funeral Test and discover your true calling
- Build a Success Ladder by planning backward from your destination to today
- Put the big rocks first using the Eisenhower Decision Matrix
- Set realistic milestones and stay accountable
- Turn your spare time into your greatest advantage
- Create an environment that pulls you toward your goals
- Push through failure, stop making excuses, and refuse to compromise
- Pay it forward and leave a legacy that outlasts you
You'll learn from Nehemiah, who prayed AND planned. From Eric Liddell, who walked away from the race he was favored to win and still took home Olympic gold. From Colonel Sanders, Thomas Edison, Joseph, Daniel, and a nervous Sunday school teacher whose one conversation in a shoe store set off a chain that led to Billy Graham.
Every chapter ends with discussion questions and one concrete action step called "Your Next Rung." The book also includes a Success Ladder worksheet, a Wheel of Life assessment, annual review questions, and a collection of Scripture for the climb. It's ideal for personal study, small groups, men's and women's ministries, and mentoring relationships.
You don't need a perfect plan. You need a clear destination and the next step.
Start at the end. Then go climb.

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 California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, 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.

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.
