How to Make It Happen

Failure rarely ends the story, and success seldom arrives overnight. Maria Hatzistefanis speaks from two decades of building her own company, a business the press once described as an overnight success, and she is candid about how tiring it can be to keep going. Doubt, rejection and unexpected setbacks are all part of the picture. This brisk, accessible guide is designed to help readers build their own motivation and channel their energy into action. Along the way it offers practical advice and stories from well-known figures. Its core message rests on three principles: set clear goals, map out the route you want to take, and then act. Written for anyone hoping to grow a business, it aims to help readers develop a mindset focused on getting things done, whatever stage of their career they are in.
