WHAT ADDS VALUE Who adds value to your life? How do you add value to others? We have all benefited from someone who inspired us, encouraged us and added value to our lives. Adding value is important in our families, friendships and relationships as well as in the organizations where we work. Imagine your inner circle of friends and family or an organization where everyone is focused on adding value to others. In this book, Steve Gilliland reveals the many things that add value and assist us in improving our circumstances. He shows the various qualities that add value to other people that, in turn, will also bring you the opportunity to add value to your own life. Great companies with great cultures add value to their people, products and services. It's not always about money, discounts or giveaways. A quality product or service is only a slice of why customers will do business with you. No matter what your business does, it will descend or ascend based on the value it creates in someone's life. If it doesn't meet a need or want, then it's not value. One of the most fulfilling things you can do is add value to people. This means encouraging, investing in, helping and serving others. It's anything that makes someone's life better or makes them feel appreciated. Whether you're a manager at a big company, a small business owner or an individual, THE CHERRY ON TOP will show you the significance of adding value to yourself and others. The best way to add value to your life is to add value to others. Price is what you pay. Value is what you get. -- Warren Buffett Not adding value is the same as taking it away. -- Seth Godin To add value to others, one must first value others. -- John Maxwell If your presence doesn't add value, your absence won t make a difference. -- Zero Dean

In MAKING A DIFFERENCE, author Steve Gilliland brilliantly lays out three manageable means that make it possible for every person to unlock their potential and exert profound influence. Filled with inspirational anecdotes, laugh-out-loud humor and thought-provoking ideas, this book is an eye-opening journey that when put into practice, will make a considerable impact in your professional and personal life. As a master storyteller, Steve expounds on the essentials toward Making a Difference -- Purpose, Passion and Pride. Where you live, the money you possess, the money you stand to inherit, your marriage, the car you drive and the friends you appear to have are outward signs of success and not necessarily indicators of inner fulfillment. The amount we earn or the success we achieve produces emptiness unless it is in line with a purpose beyond ourselves. This book demonstrates that you don t need a master s degree or a doctorate to make the world a better place. MAKING A DIFFERENCE confirms that purpose is the essential ingredient to motivation and the ultimate path to making a difference; passion is what allows us to overcome challenges and disregard people who try to extend their misfortunes and negative outlook to you; and pride is about you and your expectations. It is about realizing the importance of your role in life and taking pride in everything you do! This book is a profound idea that will impact your life.
