5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, definitely worth the read...., 15 Feb 2005

By	Sally Marshall (North Yorkshire, England) - See all my reviews

With the need for some good luck I read it. An absolutely fantastic read i enjoyed every minute of it. It was an easy read but at the same time really made me think about different situations in my life and how i could adopt a whole new attitude to gaining a much more positive outcome.I particularly enjoyed the bit about parking your car. Now when i drive into town on a Saturday morning i get my preferred parking spot excellent tip - thank you! I also liked the phone call one now my phone bill is no longer sky high and when it suits me i can have a chat on the phone - fantastic. A really good book for every age. I click your copy now!

4.0 out of 5 stars Everyone needs to read this to make their own luck, 22 Nov 2004

By A Customer

I took this book on holiday and picked it up to read in bed at 11pm and finally put it down at 2am the following morning. Yes, it is a quick read as the chapters follow the same formula and of course I didn't do all the thinking expected!Until the last chapters of the book it did feel as though I was reading a course on luck...which of course it is. I particularly enjoyed the interviews with the 'great and the good'; obviously well researched and Anne Watson clearly knew and chose her interviewees well. Reading their interviews really inspired me and I ended up leaving the book in the chalet for others to read. I also marked points for my entrepreneurial daughter to read to encourage her in her ski adventure. I also completed the questionaire on line, those who have completed 'pukka' personality questionaires will see some similarities but the feedback was informative and fun and caused quite a debate around the family kitchen table! Well worth buying and handing round the family or better still buy them their own copy for Christmas!

5.0 out of 5 stars A fantastic and practical book, 27 Sep 2005

By	Robert Williams (Birmingham) - See all my reviews

I have recently graduated from University and completed a degree which included Psychology. I found the information and ideas in this book better than all my Psychology lectures put together. It's easy to read and - more importantly - suggests really practical things you can do to improve your life. Great personal psychology. Thank you.
