The Sequence to Success
About the Book The Sequence to Success
Book: The Sequence to Success
Author: Samuel R. Chand
Genre: Christian non-fiction, self-help
Release Date: February, 2020
Every one of us gets anywhere in life due to three things: someone observes us, forms an opinion about us, and decides to give us an opportunity…or not. Likewise, we do the same thing with others. People have played this essential role in our lives, and we play it in the lives of those around us—and no matter how skilled we’ve become, we can play it even better.
The sequence applies in business, the church, marriages, parenting, and friendships. We often assess others in the blink of an eye. Out of instinct, we notice the look on someone’s face, the tone of voice, or the body language that’s consistent or different from the words being spoken. Then, we react to our observation, but we seldom stop to analyze before we respond—it just happens, and it happens immediately: we observe and have an opinion, and based on what we’ve determined in that second, we either give the person an opportunity to engage with us or we close the door and remain guarded.
The Sequence to Success: Three O’s That Will Take You Anywhere in Life is a leadership book, but it’s not limited to corporate presidents, CEOs, or lead pastors; it’s for everyone who has a position of influence in another person’s life—and that includes all of us. In this book, Sam Chand brings our subconscious assumptions into the light. With more insight and confidence, you’ll make better decisions to advance the people around you…or perhaps show them the door. These principles also help you become more conscious that people are observing you and forming opinions about you that will open or close doors of opportunity.

My Thoughts on The Sequence to Success:
I have to admit I have gotten a lot of self-help books given to me over the years but I rarely read them. It’s not that there is anything wrong with them, just that I love reading fiction in my reading time and don’t want to “waste” it on those books. Wrong attitude? Maybe, but it was my escape from the world and I didn’t want to work on me while I was escaping!
I’ve grown up some. Now, I read these type of books but I make time for them rather than give them my fiction relax time. Because they’re not a relaxing book. You have to read them and invest in them so that they can truly work. If you read them just to read them nothing will change.
This book has some good points on how to be successful. I can’t say that my goal in life is success. My goal has more to do with raising children who love God and don’t end up in jail. So I read this book with more of a how to be successful in my own personal goals.
I did enjoy this book. It was insightful on how we view others and even sometimes ourselves. We form opinions on others based on our first impressions upon seeing them. This book could be utilized by anyone.

Success in life comes when we understand how observations lead to opinions that can open doors of opportunity or slam them shut.
