Press Release Body = FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

\"Quality goes in before the name goes on.\" \"Quality counts.\" \"Quality is #1.\"
Businesses are big into quality. Consumers demand it. So why don\'t we demand the
same quality from each other? Or from our government officials? Instead of
focusing on places and things, in 2006, people need to focus on themselves.

\"Imagine how much our world would change if we all spent a little time working to
become quality people,\" says Andrea Rains Waggener, whose website,
http://www.waggener-books.com, gives people ideas and resources to help them create
quality on the inside. \"Quality on the inside leads to quality on the outside. I
presented President Bush with Healthy, Wealthy & Wise--52 Life-changing Lessons for
the 21st Century because I\'d like him to set an example for every person in our
country.\"

Andrea Rains Waggener, newspaper columnist, author, and publisher of the inspiring
biweekly newsletter, Living On The Up Beat, which people can subscribe to free at
http://www.waggener-books.com, wrote Healthy, Wealthy and Wise because she was
inspired by Ben Franklin\'s practice of focusing on one of 13 virtues each week of
his life. She came up with 52 of her own virtues, which she calls qualities, and
she set out descriptions of the qualities, why it helps to have them, and how to get
them.

Developing these qualities can show readers:

-How to make good decisions
-How to turn painful life situations into something positive
-How to improve relationships
-How to create personal and professional success.

Here\'s what author, Meg Chittenden has to say about Healthy, Wealthy & Wise:

\"Healthy, Wealthy and Wise--surely these are qualities we all wish for. This easy to
read, easy to understand book lays out all the ways we can improve all three. With
warmth, insight, and humor, this author offers encouragement, guidance, and
motivation. A book to study, savor and respond to. A keeper for sure.\"
