Great book
I am a financial advisor and I frequently loan this book to clients and they usually love it. Its also a great book to give to young people. It really gets across the message that you don't have to make a lot of money to be wealthy, you just have to live below your means and invest well. Highly recommended.

Putnam Adult, 1996
I'm a believer!
Shortly after having my son in 1993, my health 'challenges' began to worsen. I've known since age 6 that I was allergic to milk when diagnosed by a doctor, but just had a feeling there was more. I had some allergy tests and all the doctor could tell me was the indoor/outdoor allergies I had and the one thing I already knew...dairy. Eventually body forced me to eliminate numerous foods that I had ...

Shoya Zichy, Ann Bidou
AMACOM, 2007
Oddly Reassuring, Highly Recommended
I have read a number of books of this type, and this is one of the most helpful I've found. The initial test is very quick and, for me, very accurate. Many of my preferences for how, where, and why I like to work are listed for my type. Seeing them written here assures me that there really are reasons for the work environment that I prefer, and the work types that I gravitate toward.

Power vs. Force: The Hidden Determinants of Human Behavior232 reviews
David R. Hawkins
Hay House, 2002
This book changed my life!
If the only thing in this book was the chart to show us the energy levels of different emotions, it would be worth FAR more than the price of the book. If you've read The Secret, Ask and It Is Given ([...]) or Lynn Grabhorn's book (Excuse Me, Your Life is Waiting) you'll want to see how they tie to this book. The energy levels of different emotions along with the list of "Emotional Setpoints" ...

This book is life altering! It is hands down the best book I have ever read on how to get out of the daily grind and do something with your life. What's more amazing is that Joe & Vicki had this wisdom decades ago and it is still applicable today. It was thrilling to discover that the life of my dreams is not only possible, but only nine simple steps away. Value yourself enough to get this ...

Things I have learned in my life so far35 reviews
Stefan Sagmeister
Abrams, 2008
self help books usually turn me off
There is one section of bookstores that I traditionally avoid when browsing:
the self-help section. It's not that the ideas of how to live a fuller life are not
worthy of my attention, but the way these book are written usually wears me
down by their linear nature and repetition of thought. And they often seem
disingenuous. Sagmeister's book is the opposite. It is an alternative
self-help ...

Napoleon Hill
Aventine Press, 2004
The Original Version, Restored, and Revised
I have read several different publishings of Think and Grow Rich, and I am happy to say it was nice to discover this particular copy. You may not know, but in 1960 Napoleon Hill did a rewrite of his manuscript and the results left much of the original text deleted. Here, in this production, we have his ORIGINAL text from the 1937 edition. There are two other things I really appreciate about this ...

Change Your Thoughts Meditation CD: Do the Tao Now!62 reviews
Wayne W. Dyer
Hay House, 2007
A Must Own!
I absolutely adore Dr. Dyer, and found the 81 principle of the TAO, unable to grasp, until I received this unabridged CD. The tenants are meant to be read one or perhaps two a day, and then to meditate on each. Dr. Dyer is truly a gift to us all, and I hope he is discovered by many. He speaks in plain english, and will explain anything difficult, again, in a way that we can all understand. I ...

How Full Is Your Bucket? Positive Strategies for Work and Life85 reviews
Tom Rath, Donald O. Clifton
Gallup Press, 2004
Very Positive Energy
If you fill someone else's bucket with positive energy, words and praise, it fills yours in return. It is a nice approach and it definitely works. Mr. Rath did not reinvent the wheel here. However he did write a good book that is pleasant to read and it is empowering. The only problem that I have with this book is that I found it too expensive considering how thin it is. Otherwise, it is well ...
