The Way of the Dog (PDF)

The Way of the Dog is a self-help classic. It tells
the story of failed salesman, Derek Stubbins, who wanders into a
brothers Grimm nightmare and gets turned into a dog. He has to
learn the way of the dog to get by. He has to develop the simple,
clear way of thinking that a sheepdog has for its task. In doing
so, he finds that he can achieve any goal he desires. It is the
perfect pathway to success.

Why a dog? A dog has only two states of thought, which are
happy, and waiting to be happy. When it has a task to do, it sees
the beginning and the end. It doesn't become anxious or depressed
at the size of the job, but just undertakes it and deals with
obstacles as they come. It always succeeds.

Geoff Burch taps into the core of great personal development
writing in The Way of the Dog. He focuses on the two
big questions - what do you want to do with your life and how do
you do it? By following the way of the dog, each obstacle in your
path is dealt with unfailingly, one at a time. And if you don't
know where you're going or what you need to make you happy, the
sheepdog will show you how to recognise a sheep and not to waste
time with goats. The Way of the Dog offers timeless,
accessible, fast-paced, funny and memorable advice. Inspiring
lifestyle wisdom is brought out through simple storytelling.

Plan your course through life and overcome every obstacle in
your path by adopting The Way of the Dog's route map
to success. Unlike the instructions in flat-pack furniture, anyone
can understand it, it is easy to do, and the outcome will not be a
surprise or a disappointment. The Way of the Dog
contains the secrets of success.
