Retirement advisor Al Barbour recently hit two Amazon.com best-seller lists with the new business book, “Transform,” co-authored with best-selling author and speaker Brian Tracy.

Clayton, NC – September 30, 2014 – Al Barbour, Founder of Barbour Tax and Financial Services, recently joined noted business development expert, best-selling author and speaker, Brian Tracy, along with a select group of the world’s leading experts, to co-author the book titled, Transform: The World’s Leading Entrepreneurs and Professionals Get to the Heart and Soul of Transforming your Life, Business & Health. The book was released on September 18, 2014 by CelebrityPress™ – a leading business book publisher.

On the day of release, Transform reached best-seller status in two Amazon.com categories – reaching as high as #6 in the “Direct Marketing” category. The book also reached best-seller status in the “Marketing and Small Business” category. Al Barbour contributed a chapter titled, “Transformation of the Heart.”

In 1986 Al Founded Barbour Tax and Financial Services. The mission of Barbour Tax and Financial Services is to help retirees and soon to be retirees achieve their financial dreams through low risk investments, comprehensive financial planning, and tax minimization strategies. Barbour emphasizes that financial planning is more than having a great stock or bond – it’s more than having your money locked away in a low interest rate CD. A sound financial plan is one that helps you achieve your financial goals while accounting for all aspects of life; including taxes, social security, Medicare, and risk management – including planning for the unexpected and the inevitable.

‘Our holistic approach looks at all aspects of our clients lives and takes in to account not only the hard, cold logic of finance, but the human aspects of what it’ll take to give our clients peace of mind. Just as every person is unique so is every financial strategy,” remarked Al Barbour.

“Our office lives by Colossians 3:23: ‘Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart as if working for the Lord’,” he continued.

CelebrityPress™ describes the book:

When we think of transformation, we automatically think of metamorphosis or change. One of the first metamorphoses we discover as a child is the universally- quoted change of the caterpillar into the butterfly. The positive symbolism of this transformation is liberally applied to illustrate the change from ‘ugly duckling’ to ‘elegant swan’ in all fields.

This symbolism readily transfers to just about any change for the better. The guidance of individuals who have experienced positive change with mentoring, have taken calculated risks and enjoyed accomplishments in their field, may be seen as role models. We also note that the transformations of the PremierExperts® in this book are not limited by ‘dollars and cents’ measurement, but include body, mind and soul accomplishments.

The transforming experiences discussed by the PremierExperts® in this book cover many subjects including positive mindset changes, changes wrought by perseverance, passion, due diligence, restructuring, technology, systems, techniques, etc., …in fact, they cover positive changes that cut across numerous disciplines and fields.

After such a successful release, Al Barbour will be recognized by The National Academy of Best-Selling Authors™, an organization that honors authors from many of the leading independent best-seller lists.
