In Start with Your People, Brian shares principles, tips, and personal stories to help you maximize the most important resource to succeed in both life and calling: relationships. Join Brian on a journey to discover the people-first mindset that changes everything, including:

• Why your family actually helps you succeed, and how to see your kids as a legacy instead of a liability
• The fastest, safest way to deal with the difficult people in your life
• A 10-step method to create your own personal mission statement

It literally feels like Brian is your personal business, relationship and wellbeing coach as you work through the book.

Just Do It: Start with Your People!

I listened to Start with Your People: The Daily Decision That Changes Everything by Dr. Brian Dixon this week. Brian’s positive attitude encourages me. His first-hand experience of building relationships, growing in areas where he struggled, being humble enough to admit and share those struggles, and then providing clear action steps to help move us forward with our own relationships and personal goals is something I can cheer for.

There are so many great ideas Brian shares in his book, but one really inspired me to also buy the hardcover. Basically, he said don’t go on to read (or listen to) the next book until you’ve tried doing some of the action steps promoted in this book. I agree. I think we gloss over the “doing” part that authors give us and then we wonder why their strategy or ideas didn’t work. It’s because we didn’t do them. I bought the hardcover because I need the visual aid to help me work on his action steps. I know they will benefit my people and me too.
