We all shall prosper with Lapin's guidance

As a real estate professional, I have found Thou Shall Prosper to be vital to my business as it clearly illustrates that sales can only be closed, when both the buyer and seller leave the table feeling they have both bettered their position. It also clearly demonstrates that the morality of the marketplace is not only a term used to describe the benefits of the great capitalist society that we are blessed to participate in, but it also explains WHY we should be actively involved in commerce. I highly recommed this book to anyone who feels guilty about being successful, anyone who aspires to improve their financial state and anyone who has not yet been exposed to Lapin's insights.

Read and Thou Shall Prosper

As a business owner in a service industry I have gained more from this book than almost any other personal finance or business management book that I have read. Unlike so many others, Rabbi Daniel Lapin does not offer any quick tricks or simple solutions. He describes a powerful process of self improvement and real change that I have found to be personally exhilarating as well as already profitable. I can see how my many financially successful Jewish friends seem to follow the rabbi's prescriptions almost subconsciously. Now after seeing the business process through Rabbi Lapin's eyes I find myself finding opportunity where I never saw it before. Through the practical steps that conclude each chapter I have been able to adjust my intuitive response to people and situations and this has allowed me to negotiate more effectively. The most amazing thing is how often during my first read of Thou Shall Prosper, I exclaimed "Wow! He's right!" This stuff isn't rocket science but it is often counterintuitive. I could have used some more diagrams and clarification of some of the more complex principles but with a few rereadings, it was fine. I recommend this book for its practical ability to make you really prosper whereas before you might just have been doing OK. He says that if you want to make different things happen to you it isn't enough to do different things, you must actually become different. If you want to change, this book can help you do so. It is going to be my present of choice for many friends and relatives during this holiday season. You won't regret having it in your business library.

Review of Thou Shall Prosper

I was paging through this book in a bricks and mortar store and saw this point: We don't just do things because we feel a certain way, just as often, we feel a certain way because of things we are accustomed to doing. Then the author advises: So if you don't like the way you feel about something, start acting the way you would act if you already felt the way you wished you felt. (I had to read that a few times) I tried his recommended technique about living and working alongside difficult people with one particularly troublesome colleague. It worked perfectly, just as he said. The man is a genius! Except he would say(and does in the book again and again.) that he is merely translating the ancient wisdom that Jews have used for centuries to excel in business. You will find this book incredibly useful and quite unique.
I could nitpick about some split infinitives, but if you're like me, you're less interested in grammar and more interested in practical tools, tips, and techniques that can increase your revenue next month not next decade. I've had the book for two weeks and am already benefiting from its wisdom; funnily enough not only in several business transactions but also in my social life. It is one of those books I am enjoying looking at again even after carefully reading it once already.

Thou Shall Prosper

I really enjoyed the book and the knowledge presented in it. Rabbi Lapin answers the stereotypical questions and provides a lot of insight into the "Jewish" traits of how to succeed financially. He reveals the timeless wisdom of the Jewish bible and the practical methods for getting ahead, not just financially but also in life. The book was also fun and personable to read, thanks to his great stories intertwined about his family and life experiences.

I have also attended a business seminar and have been able to hear the Rabbi speak in the past. With his wonderful wit and wisdom he is not to be missed, on paper or in person. He has provided me with practical financial advice that I have repeatedly applied to my own business career. This book should not be passed by by anyone wanting to excel financially or spiritually.
