Larry Winget

Gotham, 2007

You're broke because you want to be.
This book is great for those who don't want any fluff and sympathy. My debt was caused mainly because of 9/11 and the affect it had on my business, as I lost most of my small business customers almost overnight. Its been difficult to not only rebuild my business, but still keep my head above water to pay my creditors. Larry gives you easy homework, I've read the book completely, and knowing what ...

The Happiness Trap: How to Stop Struggling and Start Living

Russ Harris

Trumpeter, 2008

The end of all self-help
It took me a long time to get through this book. I had it sitting on the shelf amongst several other self-help titles, and when I reached certain portions of the book I found myself bored or disinterested in taking the kind of actions suggested, so I moved to another title. I later realized that by doing so I was exercising my own 'control strategies' as Russ puts it, which really didn't do ...

Dale Carnegie

Pocket, 2004

Everybody needs to read this book.
I'm not sure what influenced me to buy this book but I sure am glad I did. The author, Dale Carnegie, has been dead for over 50 years but the principles in this book are timeless. You dont have to sit and read the book from cover to cover either. To be blatently honest, its a great bathroom reader. Each chapter is independent enough so that you do not have to really read them in any order. ...

Duke Robinson

Grand Central Publishing, 2000

What an amazing book
I had to find a way to say "no" to someone, and a friend lent me her copy. I am forever indebted to her because it happened after I finished reading this marvelous book. The information in it has enabled me to stop talking in counterproductive ways and doing several things I always did because I wanted to be nice...and to be seen as nice. It was so engrossing I purchased 10 copies for myself, ...

A Complaint Free World: How to Stop Complaining and Start Enjoying the Life You Always Wanted

Will Bowen

Doubleday, 2007

Highly Recommended
The first thing to understand about A Complaint Free World is that Will Bowen is NOT saying to be a doormat! He explicitly says "Directing a comment to someone who can improve your situation is not complaining." He says "I am NOT advocating remaining silent when there is something that has happened which you need corrected." His assistant, Marcia, says "It is NOT about stuffing your emotions in ...

16 reviews
Tim Murphy, Loriann Hoff Oberlin

Da Capo Press, 2005

Excellent for both anger hiders and those around them
One the best self-help books I've read. This book takes both the view of people who are passive-aggressive, referred to has hidden anger, and those around them affected by these behaviors. It has really helped me both understand how to be assertive with emotions and address hidden anger in others around me. The book's philosophy is "knowledge is power" rather than taking a prescription approach. ...

The Detox Book: How to Detoxify Your Body to Improve Your Health, Stop Disease, and Reverse Aging, 2nd Edition

Bruce Fife

Piccadilly Books, 2001

Do yourself a favor, get this book.
I have been fasting/detoxing for many years. It is a passion of mine, and I don't have many interests in my life that I consider passions. Fasting/detoxing, some have claimed, is a gift you give yourself. I truly agree with this proclaimation. Of all the material I have read about detoxing...this is the most insightful, through, and overall, best source. This book is not full of religious ...

Squawk!: How to Stop Making Noise and Start Getting Results

69 reviews
Travis Bradberry

Collins Business, 2008

Changed me as a manager and a person
Much of Squawk!'s story is told with tongue pressed firmly in cheek. That makes it interesting and fun, but you don't get very far into the book when it starts hitting you (HARD!) that you're learning, and, for me quite frankly, that I need to learn. The book's three virtues of superior leadership are enough for any manager to live by. My team wondered what changed me, so I had them all read the ...

Donna J. Cornett

People Friendly Books, 2005

Problem Drinker or Alcoholic? It Doesn't Matter!
I don't know if I was a problem drinker or alcoholic. I don't care - I'm not into labels. But I do know I wanted to drink less and become less dependent on alcohol. And 7 Weeks helped me. One message in the book is you've got to take responsibility for your drinking instead of chalking it up to genes or a bad childhood or whatever. Another message is you can change if you want to. And ...

Kid Cooperation: How to Stop Yelling, Nagging and Pleading and Get Kids to Cooperate

61 reviews
Elizabeth Pantley

New Harbinger Publications, 1996

very useful book
I highly recommend this book. Very helpful, especially for those parents that fail to be consistent and "go with the flow", failing to create strong rules and a loving, solid discipline. This books acts a self-confidence booster for parents, offers very empathetic advice when it comes to parental anger, and actually gives very practical tips and hints to deal with misbehavior. I love the ...

Stop Telling, Start Selling: How to Use Customer-Focused Dialogue to Close Sales

4 reviews
Linda Richardson

McGraw-Hill, 1998

Great advice (if you can assimilate it)
The problem with any "how to sell" book like this is, until you can integrate the advice given here so that it comes naturally to you, you will sound as mechanical and forced as some of the "tellers" Richardson criticizes. I used to sell big-tiicket business-to-business, and I can say the advice here is timeless: engage your customer, identify what your customer's needs are and position your ...
