Product Description
In this introduction to the value of personal drive and motivation, the authors accept that the target for most people is not to run a multi-national company, but to be a better friend or parent, for example. Without complex jargon, they show how advancement goals can be set and realised.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant and life-changing, 17 May 2002

By A Customer

When I picked up this book, I knew I had a problem with negativity. I had wanted to change my life for a long time, change the way I viewed the world around me. I saw a lot of positive people around me, and I thought "why have they got it so good? Why isnt my life that enjoyable?"
I learnt a great deal from this book, and I learnt that every person can change the world, just by looking at it differently. When we look at the world through negative eyes, it is a cold unforgiving place, and we feel cheated and unhappy. I'm only half-way through this book, and these thoughts are disappearing with every new page I read.
The different chapters ask soul-searching questions, and make you re-assess your view of the world. I've got a few of these type of books, and this is the strongest thing I have ever read. If you want to change your outlook, be less negative, and really start to enjoy your life, if you are unhappy and want a way out of the gloom, please please buy this book, it will help you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Changes the way you think about your life, 21 Jun 2000

By	Ian Scotland (Gatwick, England) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The book was written at a time when the authors knew that Frank Gilbert was dying, and the humility and integrity of this book is breath-taking. I was emotionally stirred and moved many times as I read it. There are lots of new ideas and practical steps that can make your life different. It has lots of stories from 'real life' that are truly significant. The various sections will help you to re-define 'you' and specifically looks at self-esteem and self, goal-setting, relationships, work, leaisure, health - literally every aspect of your life. Now reading it for the third time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic - this total changed one of my associates, 22 Feb 2001

By A Customer

I bought this for a member of my team who was going through a particularly negative patch. During and after reading this book he is a changed person. I can't believe the difference, he is committed to his development, has changed his mind about changing jobs and has even enroled on a course - something he has always wanted to do! I am so impressed I have ordered a copy for everyone in my team!

5.0 out of 5 stars Positive Insight Into Negative Thinking
I agree with the previous reviews which call this book "emotionally moving" and even "brilliant." Yet the bottom line for me is that it is so "helpful" in very practical ways... Read more
