Simple, easy to understand, highly beneficial.......2007-08-23
This book clearly explains what wellness and how to achieve it. Yes, it may seem like an ad for chiropractors, but not many people know how chiropractic is beneficial outside of neck and back pain. It also is a one stop resource for healthy eating habits, exercise habits, and a good way to restore you mental vitality. THIS IS WHAT WELLNESS IS ABOUT.
Simply a no-nonsense guide.......2007-06-03
Written by Dr. Bob Hoffman and Dr. Jason A. Deitch, Discover Wellness: How Staying Healthy Can Make You Rich is a guide to not only improving one's health and quality of life, but also foster pocketbook savings in the process. Chapters are filled with simple, time-tested methods for fostering improved health, from consciously applying better posture to promote spinal health to simple stretches ideal for engendering flexibility to guidelines for proper nutrition and exercise, the value of eating organic foods, and much more. Discover Wellness is simply a no-nonsense guide to help more people become less sick through inexpensive and easy-to-follow guidelines, and while not a substitute for a doctor's care, is decidedly invaluable for its practical preventative measures. Highly recommended.
I Discovered The Truth When I Discovered Wellness!!.......2007-04-11
After reading Discover Wellness, even the most casual observer can recognize how painfully obvious it is that making better/smarter lifestyle choices will result in an overall improvement of health and well-being. What I like about this book is that it puts all of this information into perspective and makes it not only easy to understand, but actually easy to implement and follow. I can - and now want to - do this! I can AND WILL be healthier!
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2007-04-11
When I first opened this book, I thought it was just going to be another "cookie-cutter" health and fitness "how to" book. Boy, was I wrong! This book is filled with things I never even thought about! I've always heard the saying, "you are what you eat" but I never heard "you are what you THINK!" The bottom line is, if you want to have a healthy body, you have to have healthy thoughts and emotions. Just as it's important to avoid toxic chemicals, it's important to avoid toxic thoughts. Easier said then done, but I'm practicing what I learned in Discover Wellness and I already see some impressive improvements.
The Best Info at the Right time.......2007-04-10
The information presented in Discover Wellness has been included in some of the hottest discussions in corporate America and is an important part of the platform in the 2008 Presidential Election. It is an easy read intended to provide as much information as possible so you can educate yourselves, family and friends and community about the magnitude of America's health care crisis. Unfortunately, this isn't an issue that we can ignore because it's NOT going away. If you want to keep up on how "staying health can make you rich" then this book is a must read!

A Must Read for Investors.......2004-05-14
This book has a refreshingly commonsense approach to investing. It contains a great deal of worthwhile advice and wisdom from some of the world's best investors. I am not an experienced investor, however I found it to be understandable and learned useful information from it. I would highly recommend it.
A Classic "Must Read" Investment Book.......2004-04-15
Nikki Ross has documented principal strategies and investing advice from the great Wall Street legends of our time. I have found the underlying principals of Buffet and his mentors as well as Price and Templeton to be very helpful. It is an easy to read enjoyable book. It may not be for day traders in general, but they could benefit from the list of questions asked by the masters before investing. I believe that had many investors read and applied this book prior to and during the recent crash, they might have saved a lot of money.
Blake Conant
Just read the "Evaluation" part.......2004-03-07
This book discusses on the techniques Warren Buffet (value/growth), Benjamin Graham (value), Phil Fisher (growth), T. Rowe Price (growth), and John Templeton (growth use or have used to make their fortunes.
The book is divided into 6 parts on one each of these legends and another on how to combine the knowledge of these experts. The sections are organized in an interesting way first off you learn what some of the stocks the well known investor has bought and why they met their purchasing criteria. There is also a nice 3 steps to how you can use their methods in your investments, this in turn is organized by:
1. Gathering information (this part it almost worthless in my opinion since it is very similar for each of the investors)
2. Evaluate (this is the best part of each of the areas in the book, you learn the questions these masters would ask a company and themselves. It's very good.)
3. Making decisions discusses how the masters decide when to buy and sell the stock.
This book and "The Money Masters" by John Train are interesting reads if you enjoy learning about the careers and wisdom these masters are willing to share.
I believe this book wouldn't be very useful for strict CAN SLIM investors or day traders but good for the buy and hold or long term growth and value investors it definitely shows you some of the possibilities.
Reed Floren
Worthless.......2004-02-26
This book is worthless. The true 'lessons' make up only a few pages of the book and these lessons are not detailed enough to make financially sound decisions. For example, a lesson such as "What is the PE Ratio?" is similar to what you would find in the book. OK, the PE ratio is 3. Is that good? Is that bad? How about 40? What is high? What is low? Do current interest rates effect PE ratio levels? What is an acceptable PE ratio for a growth stock? What is an acceptable PE ratio for a cyclical stock? You'll get no answers from this book.
The best "lessons" section (though still unacceptable) came from John Templeton. But these were a direct quote from an interview Templeton gave the Christian Science Monitor. The author must have spent a few weeks writing this book.
Most of the book is babble, reproduction of articles/reports, duplication of previous sections, and educational definitions for the newbie.
My lesson to you is to take the money you were going spend on this book and go buy a U.S. Savings bond. You will be richer and wiser in the end.
Not all its cracked up to be..........2004-02-23
...- I bought the book BUT Nikki Ross gives a basic three-step approach to investing, that is repeated throughout the book. 1. Collect info, 2. Analyse info, 3. Make a decision. And that's about as complex as the book gets.
Don't waste your money, unless you're after a very simplistic overview of investing. ALL OF THE FIVE STAR REVIEWS OVERRATE THIS BOOK - 1 Star (at best).
...
If you're after real value on practical management implementation tools that link strategy & financial numbers then YOU HAVE TO INVEST IN "Performance Measurement & Control Systems for Implementing Strategy" by Robert Simons.

Customer Reviews:
Save your money this book is not readable.......2007-10-21
I have to send this book back to Amazon. It is small type and dull as dust. I did not find anything useful in this and it was such a chore to read it I stopped at the third chapter. It just is not interesting to read and did not tell me anything I didn't know before.
OPM: Other People's Money.......2007-08-26
A true entrepreneur knows how to leverage other people's ideas and other people's money to create more wealth for everyone around them. Michael Lechter has outlined several ways to bring other people to the table to combine their investments with yours.
It's not the easiest read on the shelf. But, the content is great and the information is on the money.
The art of leverage.......2007-06-10
If you really want to be a Real estate investor,then this is the book to purchase.The book is an investment in itself.
Great book to start a business with........2007-02-15
I am mainly interested in real estate investment, so this book did not have a whole lot for me. It would be really great if you are looking for capital to begin a business. I just wanted money to buy houses with!!
A good start on the big business picture........2007-01-21
One of the concepts the Rich Dad series has taught me, and you see this throughout the free enterprise system, is that "he who creates the investment gets most of the gold".
Bill Gates. Warren Buffett. The real estate developer next door turning five acres into a small strip mall, or an apartment complex.
This book shows how it's done. From concept, to trademarking and patenting, to incorporating, to raising the funds, everything short of filing the IPO is included, albeit briefly. But that's OK, you'll need your own attorneys and professionals to customize these parts for your application, anyway. Just don't cut any corners.
Michael gives you examples throughout the book as to how the process should work... and a few examples of what happens when you cut corners. (it can get ugly at this level, gang!)

If You Keep An Open Mind, This Book Will Change Your Life.......2007-09-20
I bought this book with apprehension, afraid Randy Gage was just a Larry Winget would-be. He isn't.
First, this book is incredibly readable. No poor grammar, typos, or awkward writing. That, to me, puts it miles above most self-motivational books currently on the market. Second, Randy tells it the way he sees it. He's blunt. He doesn't whitewash anything. But he backs up his opinions with solid, logical thinking rather than vague theory. Third, Randy forces the reader to question his/her thinking. And his arguments are brilliant.
There are a couple of problems with this book, but that's to be expected. For instance, he gives us a hypothetical story about a group of people trapped on a deserted island, and with that story makes a great case against government. But his theory only holds up for that initial generation of survivors; it wouldn't apply to their children. Despite this breakdown in theory, the point of the story is well made and easily understood.
Most of the other issues I wanted to mention have already been addressed by other reviewers. Just trust that if you actually read this book, with an open mind, you'll question your own lifelong beliefs.
Example? Even as a teenaged single mother working for minimum wage, I gave to charity. Over the decades I've continued to give to charity, and I would never (in the past) have turned down anyone asking for a handout. Knowing any of us could be one disaster or (in too many cases) one paycheck from homelessness kept me giving my money to what I now realize were the wrong places. Instead of sending a check to every "mission" on Earth, I now give that same amount of money to transition houses, where people are housed and fed for free, but also learn to get back into the work force.
It might seem like a small change of action, but it comes from a serious change in belief. I'm fifty-eight, disgustingly overeducated, hardworking, and opinionated, yet Randy managed to change my life.
This is a remarkable book.
Why You're Dumb, Sick & Broke...And How to Get Smart, Healthy & Rich.......2007-08-26
I think this book was well written. It's not too much different from other motivational book except Randy does not stop at the last page. He introduces you to references and his website that has a wealth of other information that should be able to help you further your success. This is a great book and I recommend it highly.
A flawed, yet very rare and valuable book.......2007-05-20
This book by Randy Gage disappointed me a little, becouse it contains not much of new thoughts and includes some copy-paste fragments from his old books.
Yet still I highly recommend it.
There is not much people in the world, who are courageous enough to tell the truth about religion, politics and mass culture and their real impact on our belief systems and our lives.
I think, a lot of ideas in this book are ahead of our time (although some of them come from Ayn Rand) and will be more accepted by the masses in the future.
But you don't have to wait, you can use them to free yourself from mass lies almost everybody is infected with nowdays. If you choose to do so, you have a chance to live the life YOU want to live, not the one a lot of today soceity's "shepherds" have in their minds for you.
Pablum - don't bother.......2007-05-15
Just another pop psychology "be rich and happy" book by someone who thinks they have it all figured out - yet subjecting it to the same critical thinking the author advocates shows it to be simply a shallow thesis. I'm always amused by those who claim make some money (which, by the way - you can never be sure of unless you see their tax return) and think that's all there is (strip away the "admire the beautiful sunset" stuff and that's the basic premise). His religion is money - many prophets like this have come before him, and many will follow. Here's a quote: "Yes, I know money doesn't buy happiness. But it lubricates life and can prevent a whole lot of unhappiness." I guess he never took a look at many of the people in upscale rehab. This author reminds me a lot of the late Charles Givens. Do a Google on that guy and you'll see what I mean.

Real Estate Riches.......2007-01-10

It will expand your mind as to what is possible for you to achieve. It changed my thinking!! Also, more importantly,it changed my actions. No product is worth anything if not acted upon. Thank you very much!!!
Not so much a "how to", more of a "why to"........2007-01-04
The main purpose of this book, as the author clearly states in the beginning of it, is not to tell you how to invest in real estate but more why you want to invest in real estate vs. the stock market and other investments. The author clearly knows what he's talking about, and his insights into the tax loopholes and financing options a real estate investor has are more than worth the price of the book. If you're a beginner, this is a great book to start out with. It's not going to tell you what to do, but it is going to tell you why you want to do it and give you some insight into the virtually unlimited leverage options a real estate investor enjoys as compared to a stock market investor who might as well take his/her money to Vegas.
If there's any doubt in your mind that real estate is the way to go, read this. I'd even recommend it for experienced real estate investors, for the reason that even though you won't learn anything new on how to go about your business, you might learn a few things about creative financing and tax loopholes that you'll wish you had known all along. Buy this book, read it over a weekend, then lend it to friends. It's not the real estate bible of the universe, but it is definitely worth reading if for nothing more than the author's upbeat, positive outlook and enjoyable writing style.
I especially like the author's anecdote about how he went through all those years of college to get a Ph. D. in engineering, then when he received his Ph. D. he was offered a job at $32,000 a year (this was the early 80's, I think, so that was a good starting salary for an engineer back then). But the week before he was offered the job, he had completed a real estate deal in which he made $35,000. So he turned down the job and to this very day has never had a job. Imagine that..... living your whole life without ever having to rent out your labor to the Man for a pittance and put up with the expectations of some moronic, terminally blue-collar boss. This guy has never had a job. He has always made his money--more than enough of it--working for himself rather than slaving away for fifty hours a week making someone else rich.
I recommend this book. It's definitely worth reading. I'm glad I have it.
good book........2006-11-03
The good thing about this author is he's very easy to listen to and he keeps your attention no problem. As opposed to the famous book "Blink" the guy has great information but he has a one tone voice that puts you to sleep.
The information is great but its not neccessarily a "how to" guide.
good points but overly simplistic.......2006-09-08
Dolf brings good points about property
1) having more control than paper assets
2)Leverage
3)Tax benefits
4)How inflation works in your favor
But a bit of it is overly simplistic.Anyone would know La is a hotter market than Idaho.
It felt good the first time --and still good for the firstimer.......2006-07-11
There is nothing detailed or even intellectually satisfying in this book. But I think the one thing that it does do is, (as another reviewer put it,) is to cheerlead. This book was exciting as it was the first book that I had ready on the subject. But now that I have done numerous transactions in real estate and handled millions of dollars worth of real estate and having experienced the ups and downs, DON"T DO REAL ESTATE AFTER READING THIS BOOK!!!!!!!! This book is so simplistic one does not know where to begin. For instance, Mr. Dolf, doesn't delve into possible set-backs seriously enough. He assumes that as long as you buy in a densely populated area, it is a safe bet. And he gives an example of "California" as one such place. There are many contingencies too numerous to list that destroys such a simplistic theory. Markets do have their time and in real estate, if you are stuck in a loan and a property you can't move, you are illiquid and repositioning is not as easy as it might seem. Therefore, being incapable of averting financial ruin is mmore difficult.
Real Estate is something that is experienced. You can't just "buy by the beach" and then just earn equity growth because no one is making beach front. And how many people have the kind of money that allows their first deal to be a fixer in Malibu. His other formula to look at a hundred-pick three-and buy one is really idiotic. There are no formulas in a mechanism that is continually shifting. The real estate industry is continually evolving. There is always an element of risk involved in any purchase. And buying single family homes is a mistake unless you are in a rapidly appreciating environment simply because there is less income potential to hold notes. And the more units, the better the rate (commercial properties). Also, the diversity of loan products just about allows anyone to buy their own home--no need to rent. None of this is even mentioned in these pages.
Then why three stars? Because, fundamentally getting excited is half the battle. And this book WAS exciting. Its simplicity is actually very appealing. In essence, he is right about one thing: Real estate is about debt acquisition ultimately. The SELECTION of the type and structure of debt and the INSTRUMENT against which a deed of trust is written is all-important. But Dolf miserably fails on these issues.There is a tremendous lack of serious dialogue and this book is simply an attempt to sell less than a mediocre work to a less than average society. For God's sake--HE TELLS YOU ABOUT THIS ONE HOUSE SOMEWHERE AND HE PAINTED IT AND LIKE MADE $20,000!! WOWIE!! $20k! You can buy gas for six whole months. Truth is, REAL ESTATE IS MORE COMPLICATED than one would ever assume. If you want something simple....buy an Index fund.
If you want to raise your I.Q. read another book. If you want to understand the simplest of simple items in real estate and get excited, read this book as a starter. But promise yourself you will wait before you jump into a ridiculous formula of see 100:make offers on three and buy one by the beach you cant afford!

How To Make $130,000 A Year.......2007-05-20
A.D.Kessler knows how to make a $130,000 from selling his books, dvds and programs. Reading his book didn't give me the tools I thought I needed to understand and lease option a property. There is some good information in the book and I recommend this book if you are a novice. I am looking for another book to get more information.
Anthony - Los Angeles, CA
My copy just arrived today - couldn't put it down!.......2004-02-05
While there are many good books out there, this one bu A.D. Kessler stands head and shoulders above them all.
I say a advertisement on the internet for this book and tape offer and jumped on it, because I had heard of A.D. Kessler from a real estate buddy here in Florida. He acknowledged that A.D. Kessler was the grandfather of "nothing down" real estate deals. And he said that A.D. Kessler was more than just a promoter or a "mee-too" writer of books trying to capitalize on the popularity of real estate, he said that A.D. Kessler has done it! He knows this business inside and out and all points in between.
My copy arrived today along with the video. One of the first things that impressed me about Kessler is that he put the importance on people, not real estate. According to Kessler "The real key to real estate is people not property." And throughout the book the emphasis is on people. Makes sense, after all, who owns those properties and/or wants to buy them--people right?
I was also impressed to see the flaring reviews, in fact, raving reviews for Kessler by people like Robert Allen, Albert Lowry, Howard Ruff and Robert Bruss. In fact, Robert Allen wrote the forward to A.D. Kesslers book and attributed his success to what he learned from working with A. D. Kessler and refers to Kessler as "the real estate professionals professional." And isn't Allen supposed to be the King of Nothing Down?
While some of the information is not new, A.D. Kessler covers it in a way that is new and different. He writes in an easy to read style even though his system is quite complex. He makes it appear simple.
Kessler shows how to make money in good times and in bad times.
There is information on lease purchases, exchanges and more. The book is over 300 pages but reading it was such a breeze, that it seemed like 50 pages.
There is an advertisement in the back flap of the book for his seminars, but I didn't notice an arm forcing me to send it in. This one star reviewer (yeah it is really just one guy) makes me laugh. You get this book which is worth $19.95 retail and a video shipped for only $7 and he is complaining? Talk about the glass being half full!
I plan on using A.D. Kesslers advice to buy properties, all with nothing down. I'll let you know how I make out.
#1 of the 10 best books.......2004-02-03
A Fortune At Your Feet is the best book on real estate investing. In particular, it is the best book on how to buy real estate creatively. A.D. Kessler is uniquely qualified to write on creative real estate investing; he created the term "creative real estate investing", owns the federally registered trademark and copyright and founded the concept with his first win/win deal back in 1946.
A.D. Kessler says that you can make $250,000 per year on one deal a month using none of your own money. What is really exceiting is that his students have done it.
A Fortune At Your Feet is over 300 pages jamm packed with powerful information. It includes 21 chapters and 3 appendices. The millenium edition is updated to include the new tax laws.
I highly recommend A Fortune At Your Feet if your goal is true financial independence.
Did you get the letter offering the book & DVD for just $7?.......2004-01-25
The letter that arrives in the mail offers this book, a DVD, and an offer to become part of A.D. Kessler's "Financial Success Dream Team" for only $7. The $7 is the shipping on the book and DVD. To become part of the "Dream Team" you actually have to shell out THOUSANDS of dollars - and you won't get to work with A.D. Kessler ... just some guy or gal on the phone. With who knows what kind of experience.
How is THOUSANDS for advice realistic for someone looking for a "no money down" deal? The answer is that it isn't. A.D. Kessler is just looking to make a buck or two.
I would recommend Investing in Real Estate 4th Edition by Andrew McLean and Gary W. Eldred instead. (ISBN: 047132339X) It costs only a little more than that $7 you'd waste to get a sales pitch to spend a whole lot more. And, it is much more useful. Tells you exactly how to calculate whether a particular real estate purchase would benefit you or not.
Choose wisely. Happy investing!
I would give it 0 stars if I could.......2003-10-12
The publisher of this book has resorted to spammers to promote it. This tells me that the book is most likely worthless, as is any publication promising that it will teach you how to become a millionnaire in 18 months starting with $100 (I am quoting from the spam email I received).

Great Start, For Beginners!.......2007-07-10
This book is wonderful, especially for folks without a lot of business background. It was very helpful for me when I began to interview accountants.
This book does an excellent job of educating the average person & Small Bussiness Owner on how to structure a business and to legally take advantage of the Internal Revenue Code. It gives great examples, and gives step-by-step guidelines that I actually understood and used.
There are a few typos, but overall a very informative book.
Straightforward information on common tax risks and opportunities.......2006-11-06
This clearly written book offers a handy guide to tax strategy for the rich and for those who hope to be rich. Author Diane Kennedy, a certified public accountant, provides basic information on common tax risks and opportunities. Without using burdensome jargon, she explains the fundamentals of financial reports and record keeping. Her approach is commonsense and straightforward she doesn't make outrageous promises or exotic, inapplicable recommendations. The title is slightly misleading. This book is not really about loopholes, but rather about sound planning and management - especially for business owners. It does get into the minutiae of tax law, which is subject to change, so some of the details may have a short shelf life, and much of the advice will have little applicability outside of the United States.

Information Packed Book! Lots of Great Tips.......2006-04-11
I thought this book was excellent! I learned quite a lot from reading it and hope to really apply what I have learned to my finances. It was jam packed with helpful tips and ideas on how to take full advantage of tax loopholes. I would recommend this to any small business owner!!
simplistic.......2006-01-23
Not very well written. Its is simplistic & somewhat condescending.
Later chapters tend to repeat basic concepts covered earlier without expanding upon the issues. There are more knowlegable authors out there that are refreshing and can effectively advance the your knowledge.
Read it and weep.......2004-03-18
This book makes a lot of assumptions. It assumes that the reader is EXTREMELY well versed in corporate tax advantages. It assumes that the reader already owns a corporation. It assumes that the book will be read with a dictionary of financial terms close at hand. (It should be. The book is poorly written, with key terms lacking adequate defenition.) I support the Rich Dad series. It is a great way for a beginner to get their feet wet. This book assumes that the reader can already swim! Even the seasoned incorporator would probably not be pleased with this book. Tell you what, if you are considering buying this book, save yourself some money and just send me ten bucks. I'll then call you (on my own dime) and summarize the book for you. Oh, what the heck, I'll do it now, for free...surround yourself with a competent team of advisors.

I'm rich beyond my wildest dreams, I am, I am, Iam.......2007-09-23
This book has given me an insight to how the universe works, it's easy to follow and understand and explains why and how to make it work!
Brilliant!!
Fascinating!.......2007-09-12
Somehow I knew by my earliest childhood that the whole life works under the same princip. Simply, it had to be the truth, and finally now, at the age of fifty I'm exploring fascinating story from the opposite side of the world!
Like a ferry tale. So, I allready believe. Who knows where I will be guided to, after I apply these technics in my life?
Best Book on how to attract Abundance into your life.......2007-08-01
I have read many long winded books on how to make your life rich and abundant. This is a short book and gets quickley to the point.
Simple to read and explains very clearly the steps you need to take. Tom Pauley's amusing little stories give his book, great credibility.
I would heartily recommend it.
Great, but could have been better!.......2007-07-11
I liked this book a lot, and it was very interesting. I especially liked the "assignment" of buying a .79 cent spiral notebook, and creating the lists of what you want in life. I still use the notebook, and refer to it often keeping it updated. The book could have been MUCH better, but sadly, the authors use it to pitch their $2,500 Quantum Selling and Quantum Marketing seminars!
Tithing--what it really means.......2007-06-12
Emmett Fox talks about tithing as giving a tenth of your joy, happiness, positive emotions, etc. to God. He suggests giving what you can, when you feel moved to do so. That sounds like a lot better way to view tithing, to me. God doesn't need your money--and this book even says not to ask the Universe for money.
I think some of this is a good exercise, but there are better sources for the same information, but everyone learns in different ways. I think Neville Goddard is better, in terms of explaining the deeper aspects of the Law of Attraction. Emmett Fox is more appealing to me. But, as a starter on this type of work, this book is OK.

practical and useful.......2007-10-11
Practical and useful book. A good refresher for someone who knows, and a good guide for someone who is starting.
Great book.......2007-09-16
I didnt start any business before. Recently I am trying to start my own business but I have no idea how I can do it. After reading this book, I figure out that I have to plan on all stuff before I start. It saves me from making a mess while start building my own business. Awsome book.
Fun, Informative, yet Inefficient read.......2007-08-06
Many of the points in this book could have been made more clearly and with much shorter explanations.
This book has EXCELLENT content, but is an inefficient read.
Inspiring!.......2007-01-12
This book lights a fire under your butt! The author does a great job laying out the steps. Although the lack of skillful editing bothered me a bit in the beginning, it does deliver. After only a few days of reading, I was able to get get very clear and focused on how to present my ideas. In a month, I had my first chunk of real money to work with.
Business Plan Book.......2006-11-10
I received the book the next day. Incredible speed. Book was in perfect condition.
Thank you.

Wealth of Information.......2007-07-14
Meet and Grow Rich contains everything you could possibly want to know about mastermind groups and then some. As a coach and consultant to what I term creative multipreneurs who are starting or growing a small business or businesses, I recognize the value of having a good, strong support team in place as a catalyst to success. Authors Joe Vitale and Bill Hibbler offer all the nuts and bolts on how to start your own mastermind group plus give many real life examples of the different types of groups that fall under this moniker. The second half of the book is filled with all sorts of tips, advice, and how-tos from several contributors who share their first-hand experiences. All the answers are here.
I was so inspired, I immediately contacted four self-employed colleagues and started my own group, as well as created a facilitated mastermind coaching groups program as a service of my coaching practice.

helpful.......2007-06-18
Lots of helpful information. I formed a mastermind group that was fairly effective, now I am looking to take that to the next level with some of Joe's ideas.
Meet and Grow Rich.......2007-05-07
I like this book very much. It gives very clear instructions on how to create a mastermind group. It also has many contributors describing their experiences with various mastermind groups. I bought a copy for my friend Susan and we have started our first-ever mastermind group. We're already seeing results in manifesting our goals.
Build Virtual Teams for Each Area of Interest Where you Need Better Decisions.......2007-05-04
Leading personal coaches today are saying that you can only grow quickly if you surround yourself with people who are smarter than you area. The authors here back up that statement by showing how to build a very smart team (mastermind group) of advisors and coaches to help you make faster and smarter decisions. I develop virtual teams for each of my areas of interest. Because of new technologies, I can meet frequently with people all over the globe without having to get onto an airplane. But, remember: email is for data, voice if for the relationship, but trust needs some face-to-face.
MasterMind your Business.......2007-02-22
Wow! Until this book, I assumed Masterminds were just like a networking group. Bill & Joe explain clearly, all that a Mastermind can be. I've used numerous ideas from the book to help create two Masterminds since this book came into my life. One of the greatest insights was realizing that I could approach people much more successful than myself to join. This one component, has allowed me to receive support from seasoned, successful professionals.
If you want to accelerate any passion, business or hobby, this book is a must read.
