This book was written by Kehl as "a distillation of experiences and lessons from my own life." Within it are some constant themes. First, it takes passion and energy to be successful in any area of life including the business world. There are people who wake up everyday and do things well because they love what they are doing. Secondly, to be successful requires a leader to engage workers who are alienated and disengaged. How can one tap into the latent talents of the workforce? If people are not enjoying their jobs and the environment they work in, they will never attain their goals and the work they do won't be worth it. Always Remember: If it Ain't Fun, It Ain't Worth Doing! is a well written book and will be especially appreciated by those who enjoy learning and pondering the contents of interesting fiction. Reading this book is both fun and educational. You have probably heard of reality television, this book is reality management."

One of the fun things at our office is that every week or two you get handed a book and are asked to read it and write down what you think of it. My current book is entitled: Always Remember: If It Ain’t Fun, It Ain’t Worth Doing! Now that was a book title that got my attention. 

I’ve always believed that work can’t just be about work. Local businessman Wayne Kehl has written a wonderful book. His style is laidback and very comfortable. It doesn’t hurt that it starts in familiar surroundings.

The wisdom in the book isn’t earth-shaking revelation but it is an easy journey visiting old friends of practical knowledge that are too often forgotten amongst the stress and challenges of modern business. Aside from that, it’s a good read. I enjoyed the time I spent with this book like I enjoy the time I spend with one of my wise old mentors. It’s time well spent. It was fun! And, it was useful. Try it - you’ll have fun reading and learning.
