Table of Contents

Introduction: Will the firstborn please stand up?
Just who are the firstborns?
What's this birth order business about anyway?
It has everything to do with your place in the family and your entire life
Who's on first?
Just because you're the first child born in a family, does that make you the firstborn? : here's why or why not
The firstborn personality
Firstborns are achievers : they get things done ... but there's a flip side to always winning
Why firstborns are the way they are
From day one, they're in charge, they always have the thickest photo album, they set the benchmark for every other child in the family
Where do I go to buy one of those firstborns?
You can't buy 'em, you can't teach 'em (at least not very well)
Firstborn has innate skills that are hard to beat if he or she is balanced in life
Has the critical eye turned on you?
If there's anything firstborns struggle with, it's criticism : did you have a flaw picker as a parent? are you a flaw picker? here's how to turn that around for your own and others' good
The firstborn advantage at home
How to use your firstborn skills to strengthen your relationships with your spouse and children (who may be the same or a different birth order than you)
The firstborn advantage at school
How to use your firstborn nature to set reasonable goals and to encourage both yourself and your children as you pursue excellence ... not frustration
The firstborn advantage at work
How you can win at business anytime and all the time
The firstborn advantage in relationships
Why birds of a feather flock together ... but sometimes cause problems in the nest
Making the most of being a firstborn
What do you really want out of life? : you can break free of your own and others' expectations.
