The latest book by Mark Sanborn, Up, Down, or Sideways (Tyndale; 2011; ISBN 978414362212) gives readers a way to answer questions they've been wondering about, like 'Is it possible to create sustainable success?'. Through his simple tips and guides, Sanborn lays out a chart to success no matter what difficulties are encountered.

Up, Down, or Sideways Contents and Chapters

The book is separated into three sections: Section 1: See; Section 2: Think; and Section 3: Do. Each of these sections has examples of individual, and individual situations, that have overcome obstacles by one of the overlaying theme.

There are 12 chapters:
  • The Surfer's Situation
  • Barrier Bashing
  • The Scorekeeper's System
  • The Optimist's Orientation
  • The Learner's Leverage
  • Produce Value
  • Create and Keep Connections
  • Continuously Innovate
  • Build Reserves
  • Practice Gratitude
  • Embrace Discipline
  • Conclusion: How to Succeed All the Time
Using these tools and reading different examples, Sandborn hopes to instill a vision of success in the reader's mind. I think he does a pretty good job of it in the end.
