The SPEED of Trust: The One Thing That Changes Everything 60 reviews
Stephen M.R. Covey
Free Press, 2008
A Hard Look at Ourselves...Needed !!!!!
It's been a thought-provoking and interesting book so far. It asks a lot of questions of me that dig pretty deep into my thoughts and feelings - and motivations.
Am I trustworthy? Do I have true, real honesty? Can I be relied upon? Do I surround myself with others who are trustworthy? Am I working on my ethics and honesty to be a better and happier person?
Lots of things about ourselves ...

Excellent Start
I thought this book gave one a great understanding to where we have been and where we could go. Here the author explained how through our experiences and relationships we are pessimistic. He reinforces that most people are negative in their thoughts and teaches us to be optimistic. I have also reviewed Living The Secret Everyday: My Secret Workbook which is a wonderful book proposing this same ...

Wayne W. Dyer
Hay House, 2007
It really did change my life
Reading this book really did help me change my thoughts, and thereby my life. When my wife tells me "You are different" I guess it means that it really does work. Oh, and the changes have been in a positive direction. I look at life in a completely different way, and I am truly enjoying life today. I have also purchased many more Wayne Dyer books since reading this, and they are all wonderful!

Loving What Is: Four Questions That Can Change Your Life165 reviews
Byron Katie, Stephen Mitchell
Three Rivers Press, 2003
Loving What Is...in this book! A Psychiatrist sings highest praise for The Work of Byron Katie.
As a Board Certified Psychiatrist who uses The Work Of Bryon Katie in my practice, I can say that after 23 years of learning and doing psychotherapy with people, I have found nothing faster or more powerful to recondition the mind/brain than The Work. It is deceptively simple and puts us face to face with our very identification with our story of a self. The Work stimulates growth like no other ...

Changes That Heal: How to Understand the Past to Ensure a Healthier Future37 reviews
Henry Cloud
Zondervan, 1997
This book will change your life
Dr. Cloud discusses some intense topics in Changes that Heal. If you have trouble setting boundaries with people, or if you didn't even know that you are supposed to be setting boundaries with people then read this! It is not an easy read. I think I would typically read each page a couple of times to understand it fully, but it was definitely worth it. My in-laws keep several copies of this book ...

One Small Step Can Change Your Life: The Kaizen Way44 reviews
Robert Maurer
Workman Publishing Company, 2004
Surprisingly Good Little Book
Well written, easy suggestions, essentially the message is clear - take small steps toward positive outcomes and keep taking them until they become part of you and your life. In that way, over time, you will find it possible to make major changes in your life. All the kaizen references are a bit annoying, and, as another reviewer stated, the kaizen program is all about manufacturing and as such ...

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People795 reviews
Stephen R. Covey

Simple yet profound!
I really enjoyed reading "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" by Stephen R Covey. Covey starts with the premise everyone is born with these traits and one has to practice and cultivate them.
My favorite chapter is "WIN/WIN". Covey's premise is there are 6 paradigms of humans interaction and that WIN/WIN is not a technique it is a philosophy of human interaction. Relationships can be ...

Change Your Thoughts Meditation CD: Do the Tao Now!65 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 ...
