Success books often focus on reaching that level of initial success, but are often silent on subsequent success. That’s because most of us are so focused on “making it big” that we rarely give thought to the “after”. What happens after you create that best-selling product or top client? What happens after you win the award, trophy, or mention in the newspaper?

Serial Winner: 5 Actions to Create Your Cycle of Success” is look repeat success. Through the book’s 5-step cycle of success, “Serial Winner” is designed to help readers understand, learn, then duplicate success in a repeatable way.

What is “Serial Winner” About?

Instead of focusing on the team-building motivation behind repeat success, “Serial Winner” focus on the individual process of repeat success. In short, what steps did champions like Michael Jordan, Michael Phelps, Oprah, and Ariana Huffington take to continue after the spotlight?

The book’s answer is the 5-step cycle “Cycle of Winning” focusing on action, learning, and adaptation.

On the surface, the cycle doesn’t seem too unique until you dig into a chapter.Beneath the surface of this simple cycle are many shortcuts and nuances to success that affect one’s ride through the “Cycle of Winning.” “Serial Winner” highlights these rough areas of success with a combination of story,inspirational lecture, or principle. (Weidel’s favorite tool of choice is story.)

One example of these rough areas of success explained in the book is the “2% zone,” which is the period of time right before a success happens when things are starting to momentum. Weidel points out that many people often quit or make drastic changes at this stage, which is the wrong thing to do. Instead, the focus is on maintaining (or even doubling)your strategies that worked so far until you succeed.

Understanding what you want and where you are in the “Cycle of Winning” is the key component in the book’s solution for repeated success. Repeated success develops from the foundation gained in the last success (hence the the circular shape of “Cycle of Winning”). Without a strong foundation, your success won’t be as smart as the last one.
