A Book that Explores a Life-Changing Question... Do you ever feel that you are your own worst enemy when it comes to changing your life for the better? Why do you put off until tomorrow what you know you should do today? Why are New Year's Resolutions yesterday's good intentions? Let Dr. Currier guide you toward a life that is everything you want it to be. In Excuses, EXCUSES, Dr. Currier introduces a "no excuses" approach to better health, work performance, and personal happiness by asking a frank and heart-felt question - "If you're so damn smart, why aren't you healthier and more effective?" This book examines the ten most common excuses we use to stand in our own way and offers insights and solutions to self-defeating dilemmas most individuals face. No more Excuses, EXCUSES.

"This book is about everyday excuses we hear for not giving excellent customer service and how to shoot those excuses down"--Page 1.

Like 3 John 13 says, "I have so much more I could share with you using pen and ink" (concerning excuses for not committing to Christ), but keep in mind these five propositions, Biblical points, and scriptural truths: Everybody has tried, is trying, or will try to use an excuse to justify their wrongdoings. God does not accept excuses of any kind, for Roman 1:20 says, "We are without excuse." Jeremiah 7:3 says, "Amend your ways and your doings." John 5:39 tells us to "search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life." Mark 1:15 would have us "repent, believe the gospel," and quit making useless excuses.

This book takes the guess work out of someone's excuses that everyone has gotten used to using in everyday life.
