Rating: Summary: Thought i was through my phase on this sort of book Review: A fable, a modern fiction, a true story - who cares.....the real story is about you and what you can do. Great wrap at the end. And if you can get past any nervousness you may have (like me) on the subject of unconditional faith then it's well worth reading and passing on - inspiring sounds too corny a word nowadays for what is, actually, an old fashioned book - but i've taken the day off to read it again so it must have hit me good. Thank you Ken and Truett - i will try, hard, you have reached me. XX
Rating: Summary: A well-written book and very challenging to all of us Review: I loved reading the real-life stories of people who "made it" and then gave something back. It made me want to help people no matter what station in life I'm at. The desire to give it all - all the time comes from knowing who we are and there's an awareness deep inside that just spills over. It makes us view the world as an opportunity to care, not just a place to get mine. I think a lot of executives are missing this ingredient in their lives and this book would be of great assistance.

Rating: Summary: Very nice book Review: Once again the motivational writer Ken Blanchard proved that he can motivate people very much. This time he chose to talk about GENEROSITY through three characters : a driver, a broker and an executive which is our morale story from this wonderful book. The excecutive advices the Broker that "there are actually four things one can give and in my mind they are all of equal significance = Time,Talent,Treasure and Touch". And then he makes it easier for the Broker by deciding to demonstrate an example of each mentioned above. Reading this book you'll get the opportunity to meet some of the nicest human beings on earth. Don't miss out...it will only take you about 1 and a half hours to read it all and a lifetime to live by what you're gonna learn inside this remarkable book.
Rating: Summary: Excellent! Buy 25 for your friends! Review: Short, powerful and life-changing. If you already have a generous spirit, you'll be inspired and motivated to be more generous. If you have friends or colleagues,who, with encouragement, could begin to experience the joy of generosity--they'll never forget your help in pointing them in the right direction. I hope this is Ken Blanchard's all-time best-selling book!
Rating: Summary: The Generosity Factor Review: This is a book you can read in one to two hours, but what great wisdom you will get from it. So many times when we think of giving, we only think of giving money. Many people do not have a lot of money to give, but we all have some we can give. We forget there are other things we can give that cost us nothing- in their book they tell us there are four things we can give -Time, Talent, Treasure, Touch.
Each of us have some of these things we can give. So many times it is the little things that mean so much - a hug, a card or a phone call.
We live in a world where we are taught everything is about me. It's great to read books like this that say it's not about me. It's about adding some sunshine into others lives, about lending a helping hand when someone is down and out. Thank you Ken Blanchard and S. Truett Cathy for this wonderful story of how we can each be happier by helping others.
