5.0 out of 5 stars The best 'take action' book I've ever read:, 27 Sep 2004
By A Customer
There is only one book to read if you want to get motivated to find the success you really want and then be the best at what you do - and this is it! And the glory of it is you can dip in and out afterwards to the area that you most want or need to concentrate on.

Most people talk about what they want to acheive, this book actually gets you taking the steps.

I would say that if you really want to be a success get this book, if you really want to be a happy success read it and buy one for your friends & family!

I can't recommend it highly enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars What you need to do to get to where you want to go., 7 Nov 2003
By A Customer
I read a lot of personal development books, but what I'm always looking for is the HOW as well as the WHAT. This book does that brilliantly. It is clear on what you need to do to get to where you want to go. Above all it doesn't make the usual mistake of assuming that everyone wants to be a Richard Branson. It helped me combine my roles as mother and small business owner. Really practical advice, helpful case studies and a format that is easy to engage with.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Life Enhancing Experience, 23 Mar 2004
By Jacqueline A Spence (Chester, Cheshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
The title in itself is inspiring. The content inspires motivation to become the author of one's own life. "Being the Best" engenders self-awareness and an awareness of one's environment making life a richer experience.

A definite 'must' read - because you're worth it!!
