Title : Sink Reflections
Author : Marla Cilley
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Get rid of your clutter and your cleaning lady...

Discovered the Flylady.net website last year, and bought the book soon afterwards. Since then, our house (and world) has been turned around. A simple system to keep the house clean and uncluttered. Nothing extraordinary, not rocket science, just common sense. But it makes keeping house fun and easy - never thought I'd say that!!! The system might sound a bit crazy at first (drying/shining your sink every night), but give it a shot for a week and you'll be converted. Buy the book to keep by your bedside, but make sure you sign up for the (free) e-mail service, to get you truly on your way. www.flylady.net

Title : S.U.M.O. (Shut Up, Move On): The Straight-Talking Guide to Creating and Enjoying a Brilliant Life
Author : Paul McGee
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Does what it says on the tin!

How refreshing to read a 'motivational type' book that doesn't pretend that everything in the garden is rosey but one that takes an honest, humourous and practical look at how to get the most from our lives.The author's openess about his own everyday challenges gives the book an easy to identify with feel, whilst also providing some moments to pause and reflect. I have to say what drew to the book in the first place was it's title... superb!( For once I can read a book on the tube without feeling embarrassed by the title). In summary, it's readable, practical, realistic, humourous and inspirational...AND in the midst of the busy lives and hetic schedules that many of us lead, this won't take an age to read. I look forward to the next offering from the SUMO Guy!

Title : The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change
Author : Stephen R Covey
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Thought-provoking

This is a thought-provoking book based on clear principles that can guide us in managing our time. There are many wise ideas contained in the pages of this book.

As an example, I learned that efficiency is something that is appropriate with tasks but with people especially family members you can't be efficient and slot people in as you think best. Instead it is about effectiveness. So you have to give family members the time they need.

Another gem is that you can't balance life at times you have to prioritize according to your values. So a mother (or father) who wants to stay home with their kids when they are young, may need to focus on home instead of career until the kids are older. The goal of balance would be inappropriate for that situation. Mr. Covey also makes it clear the importance of following the compass instead of the clock.

This is an excellent book that people need to read because it gives business direction but from a higher perspective that you rarely find in most literature out there. I also recommend the "8th Insight" also by Covey, "Your Erroneous Zones" by Wayne Dyer, "Nexus" by Deborah Morrison Arvind Singh and "Lateral Thinking" by Edward De Bono. All these book offer unique insights.

Title : Think and Grow Rich!: The Original Version, Restored and Revised
Author : Napoleon Hill
Rating : 4 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Reminds me of me............

well I have got to admit that reading this book is like reading my life story!, I admit that 'yes' I'm a wealthy millionaire and this book 'Think and grow rich' written by Mr Hill has completely stated my true personalities. Besides the thirteenth step about the 'sixth sense', everything else is basically a list that represent ME. Well I beleive this book is over rated, YES I AM RICH and this book does state my personality BUT it doesn't nessecerily make YOU rich. It's helpful, it makes you confident but it will not make you rich. YOU MAKE YOU RICH. I did not become rich because I have this characteristic and traits. I'm rich because i'm discipline and talented. Not everybody is equal. If you're talented and naturaly gifted then you will automaticly develop these traits from birth. (thats just the way it is)

People who change their personality and characteristics because a book tell them to will not be RICH. You may be more confident in yourself but you will not be rich unless you are talented. e.g. Henry Ford may not have much schooling but he is talented therefore he become rich despite his education.(you don't have to have an eduction to be talented, though it is essential).

I gave this book 4 stars because CONFIDENCE is crucial and this book helps provide the confidence and spirit in people. For success training I give this book a 2, because it states the correct characteristics but not the method.

But if you want to IMPROVE your skills and qualities then you need:
1) Discipline
2) Dedication/persistence
3) Hardwork/determination
4) Practice practice practice
5) Confidence
6) Ambition along with personality

This is what you need to improve yourself, though getting use to the habit of discipline can be difficult.( PRACTICE is VERY VERY essential)
