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)
Title : Be Your Own Life Coach: How to Take Control of Your Life and Achieve Your Wildest Dreams
Author : Fiona Harrold
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Life will never be the same again!
Fiona's book is just the inspiration that you need if you are procrastinating over whether or not to take that step into the unknown, - whether it's starting your own business, or going for the promotion you've been working towards.
It is clear from reading this book that Fiona has taken part in motivational courses, such as those held by Tony Robbins. She uses many similar quotes and examples throughout the book. This does not mean that her work is not original however. Fiona's book is a brilliant summary on the subject of self improvement. It is full of enthusiam and stimulus to make the reader think that they can achieve a better life if they are willing to come out of their 'comfort zones.'
This book is the driving force that encouraged me to make several changes in my life and I would definitely recommend it to anyone needing the encouragement or incentive to make that change.
Title : The Richest Man in Babylon
Author : George S. Clason
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : Simple and effective
I've been hopeless with money since I first laid hands on it. I was in debt up to my eyeballs and spending whatever I earned and more. But with the simple concepts in this book, I am paying off my debt steadily and actually have savings for the first time in my life.
I highly recommend this easy/quick read as a life changer.
Title : The Life You Were Born to Live: Finding Your Life Purpose
Author : Dan Millman
Rating : 5 Stars out of 5.
Summary : frighteningly accurate
I would not normally even approach such a book, if it were not lent to me by someone whom I trust and admire so much.
I consider myself a skeptic, but found the information given incredibly accurate, and specific.
This book is a little unsettling as it does not fit with my understanding of the universe. I deny neither the rational nor the mystical, yet this book's placing between the two was uncomfortable for me. It is beyond my understanding that what seem such arbritary divisions of people can be so squarely and accurately categorized. But if the universe fitted entirely with my dull and tiny understanding, there would be no life either.
