First Sentence
One of the most pervasive myths in the American culture today is that we are entitled to a great life - that somehow, somewhere, someone (certainly not us) is responsible for filling our lives with continual happiness, exciting career options, nurturing family time, and blissful personal relationships simply because we exist. Read the first page

5.0 out of 5 stars The Principal Success Book, 15 Jan 2005
By A Customer
If you like personal development books, you really must add this to your collection. If this is the first such book you have thought of buying, then you may never need to buy another one.

The content is pretty similar to most other self-help guides to high achievement, but it does manage to pack in an awful lot of ideas and advice into fewer than 500 pages. And a basic premise of the book, which Canfield stresses, is that there is nothing new about the 'laws of success', it is our persistence in applying the rules that gets results. (Of course, that idea is also in most of the other books!)

The book's strong point (or weak point, depending on your taste) is the style of presentation.

You will love this book if you like your inspirational advice accompanied by lots of pithy positive quotations and 'feel-good stories' - indeed, if you liked anything in the 'Chicken Soup for the Soul' series. You also need to be happy with American admiration for the self-made man, and the kind of directness about success which the British sometimes see as boasting.

If you want to get a broader picture of the book, I suggest you read the reader reviews on the Amazon site for the United States - a huge number, and predominantly ultra-positive.

At the price that Amazon are currently charging, this is a wonderful bargain.

5.0 out of 5 stars A thought & action provoking read !, 21 Sep 2006
I would not consider myself an impressionable type but having been engrossed from cover to cover, I still keep this book close by for reference and do occasionally re-read the odd chapter to top up the fix.

Unlike some of the other reviewers here this was my first read of this genre and having had it bought for me by a business associate I am truly grateful!

There are dozens of other sources for such self help/ inspirational material, some of which I have now read, but Jack has without doubt consolidated all of it (or atleast the useful stuff) and not only brought it bang up to date but delivers it in such useable terms that I found it a pleasure to read.

Yes it's American in its flavour and he does mention Chicken Soup for the Soul on most pages, but I did find those references to be entirely in context with the point being made, which only cemented the premise of this book that by applying its principles you can enjoy sweeter fruit if it's not sweet enough as it is!

I felt the above Reviewers "If you like personal development books, you really must add this to your collection. If this is the first such book you have thought of buying, then you may never need to buy another one", sums things up nicely.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Autobiography, if you know what I mean, 26 Feb 2006
By Hozan Shoresh (London United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This is the first book that I have read by co-author Jack Cranfield and I must say that I was impressed. I'm really into personal development and success story books and I thought this particular book was quite indepth with detail all outlined in the 64 principles of success. It was a sheer joy to read and I always had the urge to carry on reading and not stopping because it really does have a feel good factor to it.

The success principles is a book which is well written, easy to understand and digest and very practical. I have taken on many of the principles within my own life, as my purpose was, and I have seen major differences. I will have a second read and really implement the principles of success and see what the real outcome is, fingers crossed.

The book has a tendency of over indulgence in respect to the co-author Jack Canfield who constantly mentions the success of his other works which I have not read and how he has managed to get where he is. I guess in some way as they say , if you've got it flaunt it!

Overall, the book is an inspirational read with motivational quotes and in my opinion the right principles to succeed in life, although it can feel sometimes that your reading an autobiography.
