Format:Paperback
Absolutely essential reading!... I found myself re reading and re reading not because I couldnt take it in... but because it was such a self discovery!
One of the first parts of the book discribes the inner voices in our heads... 'the coach' the inner voice which says '... yes, go for it.. you can do this, come on!' and 'the commentator' - who is responsible for making us doubt our abilities and our self worth etc.... The commentator is the negative inner voice we all have who says 'I'm gonna look stupid, they'll think I'm a fool, I'll fail if I try, so I'll sit this out' We are the player. Having this analogy makes so much sense - and it's so clear to me now whats been going on in my head! Lol!... So now I am ignoring my doubting commentator and believing in my coach.... who ultimately... is me! And life just gets better and better!
Nigel has made this a humourous book, a no nonsense read... and he seems to speak directly to the reader... This book will not sit and get dusty on the shelf... I will keep it where I can see it and keep dipping into it regularly to help reinforce the messages.
Thank you Nigel, you have made such a difference and I know that I will now stop procrastinating... get off my backside and make my business fly! - My coach is telling me I can do it!

Format:Paperback
This is a new blend of familiar advice about goal setting, time management and turning your dreams into realities. Nigel Risner is direct and refreshingly honest. He flatly acknowledges that most people don't act because they find it easier not to or because they are lazy. He emphasizes enjoying yourself and incorporating "comic relief" into your planning - a welcome change from many advice books. Risner is an award-winning motivational speaker, and you won't forget this for a moment as you read. Sometimes, his book sounds like the published version of an oft-given speech. Although some of Risner's jokes and turns of phrase probably do a great job of building connections and revving up a live audience, they fall flat on the page. Similarly, he uses oversized fonts and repetition as he might use visual aids and increases in volume to clarify his points in a speech. In writing, though, the results can be a little confusing. Still, if you're looking for more depth and meaning in your life and relationships, getAbstract recommends trying the exercises and taking to heart the stories in this book.

Nigel draws from six of his productive mottos and utilises them to draw the reader through lessons he's learnt in life and how to focus on success. The puzzles set (which include learning the code of I.M.P.A.C.T.)keep you reading on, yet allow you to read in almost any direction - either dipping in as a reference book or keeping you absorbed with helpful lessons to learn about making successful changes in your life -either personally or professionally. Nigels shows how it's possible to make changes and they don't have to be huge to be significant. Well worth owning as a reference book, for life.

Nigel's plain speaking, no nonsense approach makes this a fun and inspiring read. What a refreshing change to hear it 'like it is' without any 'psychobabble' to drag it down. Read more
