New Book Teaches On Bill Murff’s Lasting Legacy of Life Success
St. George, Utah (PRWEB) January 15, 2014 -- The pursuit of happiness is affirmed by the Declaration of Independence as an unalienable right given to all humans by their creator. It does not, however, guarantee happiness; it allows for the pursuit of happiness - two very different things. “The Bill Murff Story: Bringing Beauty to the Landscape of Life” (published by iUniverse) is author J. M. Murff’s in-depth study of his brother’s unique and successful strategy for achieving the American dream of a happy, successful life built on his own hard work.
“The legendary life of virtue and service of sod farmer Bill Murff needs to be widely read by all who seek to achieve the American dream,” J. M. explains. “Bill’s life and unique business practices can serve as an example, inspiration and a formula for achieving the noblest aspects of life success.”
J. M. compares Bill’s unique and exemplary life to trailblazer Benjamin Franklin, fully identifying the peak performance process used by both individuals on their paths to exemplary success. He reveals the five-stage, 15-step strategy Bill used to achieve his American dream and identifies 23 power principles Bill discovered and used to become a noted ecclesiastical, business and community leader, as well as a philanthropist.
So unique and successful were Bill’s dealings with people that J. M. coined the word “developmentship” to describe his paradigm of business leadership.
“The famous business consultant and well-known author of ‘The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People,’ and other publications, the late Stephen Covey, crystallized the purpose of life as: live, learn, love, and leave a legacy,” J. M. writes. “Bill Murff did these four things extraordinarily well, and those seeking a more fulfilling life can learn a great deal from his story.”
