Rating:  Summary: This will ignite your life, but you must use it! Review: Think and Grow Rich will be always be my bible for achievement and how the power of your mind will make your dreams come true; however Tracy's book had the most inspiring, powerful impact on me that a book has ever had. Tracy supplies very specific steps to take for anyone wishing to be more than average, and provides "mind tools" that were known since before Hill. The value in this book, to me, is having all of the powerful techniques you would ever need explained so simply, and all conveniently available in just one book. You need to buy this, read each chapter twice, and then leave it on your shelf, consulting it for the rest of your life. Bottom line, though, is the fact that this is one of those books which is useless if you use it as a temporary "pump-up" and put it away without using any of the specific techniques in it!
Rating:  Summary: I have recommended this book to everyone I know! Review: My aunt is very successful & once recommended this book to me. She told me she made a list of goals she wanted in life & forgot about it. Later on, she stumbled across the list & she had attained most of her goals without realizing it. Because I respect her so much, I bought it & read it enthusiastically. I consider myself to be a very successful person (i.e. I'm very happy in life & with my career). I read this book a couple of years ago & attribute it to my current success. I'm re-reading it now to get further ahead in life (a house & money!). I bought copies for all my family last Christmas & have recommended it to all my friends too.My favorite thing it states is that your subconsious mind can't tell if your conscious mind is telling the truth. Ever have a dream so vivid you can't remember if it really happened? If you keep telling yourself you're thin, rich, a non-smoker, or whatever your goal is, eventually your subconsious mind believes it & works to make it happen. Obviously it is not that simple, so go read the book!
Rating:  Summary: Maximum Knowledge to Help You Achieve Review: This book is outstanding. I especially like the chapters on relationships and love. This is a great investment. Buy it now.
Rating:  Summary: Brian Tracy is a proactive success genius! Review: Brian Tracy has been one of my success mentors for years. His wisdom is clear and eloquent - but more than that it is right on! Even before you finish reading Maximum Achievement for the first time, you will be a changed person - it's that incredible. I say first time because you will want to read it again and again. Brian Tracy covers all of the proactive bases: smart thinking, system thinking, futuristic thinking, and positive thinking. If you are truly seeking the kind of success and abundance that makes your life 100% livable - you must read this book. Many of his ideas are found in SUCCESS BOUND, another book built on learning how to be responsible and live proactively. Everything that I have put into practice that he has recommended has worked. The laws of success in this book will bring you success. Read it and you will believe that you can do anything that you set your mind to. My copy is well worn with highliter and pen marks all through it from the numerous times that I've returned to it in order to study it again. You will find that this exciting book becomes a part of you. Don't hold back - let it happen. In fact, you should spend 10 to 15 minutes every morning focusing your thoughts on the truths of this book, thereby allowing them to seep deep into your subconscious mind. If you do this I guarantee this wisdom will most assuredly bring you the success and abundance you deserve. Enjoy the book and your new proactive life!
Rating:  Summary: If you were to buy just one self help book............. Review: Then you couldn't go wrong by buying Maximum Achievement by Brian Tracy. My intro to Brian Tracy was the audio tape program based on this book: The Psychology of Achievement published by Nightingale-Conant. This book has it all. You will learn how to be better at every aspect of your life. You'll learn how to have better relationships with people, how to be better in your career, how to be a better spouse and a better parent. If you were to buy just one book, this book should be the one. However, I also recommend Million Dollar Habits and Create Your Own Future also by Tracy.
Rating:  Summary: Turn man into machine Review: Success in the current society means making a man into machine, and if you want to become an efficient machine, this book is for you my friends. All goal orientation only means that you are not happy and fulfilled in this moment and think that you will be able to in the future. It is the biggest lie and these kind of book do nothing but only this stuff. We are not machine, do not try to become one. To all of us life has provided everything in abundance, enough food, air, water, sex. So why to become restless. I gave this book 2 stars because of it's last chapter on love. Else look around you, all the restless people, outcome of this kind of books
Rating:  Summary: The Best Book in the World !! Review: If your life is not quite on track, if you feel like you could be doing better - your're right. This fantastic book helps shed light into every area of your life, and how to quickly and dramatically improve it. Words simply cannot describe how truly valuable a book like this is. If you want to change, if you want to do better, if you want to feel better in any way and every way - stop reading and buy it! If you're serious about change and improvement - you'll love me for saying it's a MUST HAVE!
Rating:  Summary: the best book I have ever read Review: this book changed my life and I was only 1/2 way through it. I recommend this book to anyone who is serious about changing their life.
Rating:  Summary: Gag me - and gag him! Review: This guy has has had nothing new to say in at least ten years. If this is what you want, then more power to you. I'll take the spatula. But it hasn't been fresh since 1993. Publishers should be ashamed of continuing to promote this loser.
Rating:  Summary: The best of it's kind... Review: This book is all the things that anyone could want to get your life a jump start to bigger and better things. For starters tracy presents a system for achivement that is not just a re-hash or synthesis of everything you have already read. It presents his system in a clear precise way that is beneficial to anyone in any walk of life. You don't have to be in sales. This book motivates, stimulates and helps you focus your mind on meeting your goals. He helps you in defining your goals and meeting them. Yes this is a PMA thesis but there is much more. Finally tracy does what any worthwhile motivational teacher will do. He tells you that you will have to work hard. There is no attempt to portend that success can be had with a handful of magical formulas. You need to organize your thoughts, think positively and then do it! This book will help you do that. Maximum achievement is the think and grow rich of this generation. I recommend it to everybody on earth! .............socks
