Almost everyone agrees that discipline is key to success but the Irish say it best: Ní bhíonn an rath, ach mara mbíonn an smacht (There’s no success without discipline).” Almost everyone also agrees that, while they love the concept, they hate the word ‘discipline’. SMACHT (pronounced smocht) is the Irish word for discipline or control or mastery. It is also an acronym for six areas where improved discipline can lead to increased business and personal results. These are: Strategy: The discipline of conscious choice and focus. Marketing: The discipline of attracting and retaining customers. Attitude: The discipline of living the best version of yourself. Cash: The discipline of becoming financially free. Human Beings: The discipline of attracting and retaining great people. Time: The discipline of living life to the full. This book illustrates the power of SMACHT, through a series of stories about a fictional character, Reilly – part business guru, part philosopher and part rogue. Whether you read about the ultimate formula for business success, paradigm shifts, living life like a buffalo, flying first class, or working on salary or commission or indeed any of the 52 stories, some will bring a smile to your face, others a tear to your eye – the important thing is that they make you act.
