Feeling frustrated because you can’t get more done?

Many of us want to accomplish more. Perhaps it is to start and finish a project, develop a new skill, begin a new hobby or career, improve in our work, or just be more productive in general. But we have self-sabotaging habits and tough roadblocks preventing us from making headway.

YOUR ACTION, YOUR SUCCESS addresses many of our challenges and offers solutions for getting ourselves moving.
  • Consider the reality behind finding time and setting priorities.
  • Face your fears and roadblocks.
  • Determine your unique definition of success and what motivates you.
  • Engage in introspection, analysis and basic planning.
  • Set yourself up for success and taking those first crucial steps.
Begin with YOUR ACTION, YOUR SUCCESS today and imagine where you can be in 3 months, 6 months, a year from now. Soon you will be on your way to getting more accomplished and celebrating your progress!

“We all have those items on a ‘to do’ list that we never seem to get to. Diane teaches how to tackle items in a well-written, easy to read and understandable way.” -Natalie K., Human Resources Professional

“Instead of mindlessly following lists of commands about how to be successful, her conversational and storytelling style puts personal perspective around her motivational concepts.” -Webb P., Filmmaker

“Ms. Dresback offers readers an in-depth view into what prevents well-intentioned individuals from achieving their goals and provides valuable insights to help anyone push beyond perceived roadblocks.” - Kimberly T., Financial Services Professional

About the Author

Diane loved creative writing as a child. Then one very influential college professor put an end to everything--at least for many years. She re-discovered her love to tell stories in 2002 when she developed her first feature length screenplay. That led Diane to become active in the independent film industry and she wrote, directed and produced several short films winning numerous awards for her efforts. She has written many feature-length screenplays, including one she also co-produced called Atrophy that premiered at the Phoenix Film Festival and where she was the recipient of the 2012 Arizona Filmmaker of the Year Award. After spending most of her life living in Southern California and Phoenix, Arizona, she moved to Texas in 2013. At that time she created a blog (dianedresback.com), and started to capture her story ideas into novels.

    The Pro's:

    The book came to my house was faster then I expected that was great! This book offered some great advice and I loved the personal experiences Diane shared. The motivation factor seems more realistic when one has experiences personally and shares them. I enjoyed how she shared tips on trying motivational tactics instead of just saying "go get motivated yourself." Many people have to be led by the hand and I think she done a fantastic job there. I like how she threw some humor in and laughed at her self at times. Diane was realistic of her faults which was great to see because sometimes we fail at motivation because of trying to reach perfection.

    The Con's:
    Although there were some great ideas I felt the book was like most "motivational" books. You hear it once you have heard it a million times. Someone who is new to trying to get motivated this would be a great book to start! However for those of us who are pretty motivated naturally and has read a ton of books on motivational techniques there was not an "eye opener" moment.

    Overall I think the book was realistic, offered great ideas, entertaining, and perfect for someone trying to learnhow to become motivated.

    I feel privileged to have read Diane’s book prior to publication. It is a wonderful self-help book…one that anyone can relate to and learn from. We all have those items on a “to do” list that we never seem to get to. Diane helps us tackle those items in a well-written, easy to read and understandable way. I found the real life examples to be very useful. This is not a book to be read once and placed on the shelf, but one that will be used ongoing as a helpful reference tool.

    Taking the first step to achieve what you want is always filled with the noise of life that gets in the way. Diane in this book helps guide you through the process with many real life examples that give inspiration and meaning to taking those first steps. Even better, the satisfaction that comes from what you accomplish and the way in which you make your journey.
