Rating: Summary: Life is like a 10-Speed bike. Review: "Life is like a 10-Speed bike. Most of us have gears we never use"For example, we all know childhood friends who were blessed with great athletic abilities... but who have chosen as adults to let their God-given talents go unused while they willingly turn themselves into overweight couch potatoes. We all know childhood friends who were so full of adventure and passion in their youth... but who have chosen to become increasingly sullen and bitter as they grow older. We all know "Whiz Kids" from High School and College who were always heading up class projects and fund-raisers... but who as adults have traded in their entrepreneurial spirits for a "secure" job they hate. Do you think those people are using all 10 of their gears? Or do you think they're stuck in low gear because it's easier to turn the pedals? Sure, it may be easier to turn the pedals in low gear, but its also easier to spin your wheels and get stuck in a rut! The purpose of this book is to offer the information that will allow us to have all the things in life that we deserve. But understanding the principles discussed in You Inc. ... and then by incorporating them into our lives, I'm convinced we will improve the quality of our lives beyond our wildest dreams. Can you look in the mirror and honestly say you're living up to your fullest potential? Or are you holding back on your potential... and holding out on the quality of your life by not being all you can be? Sadly, too many of us have "forgotten who we are" ... and too many of us are "more than what we have become". I challenge you to look inside yourself and discover, once and for all, what you can become. For I truly believe that once you discover the full value of YOU, INC. you will become not only what you were meant to become... you will also become more than you ever dreamed!

Rating: Summary: One book that guides one to achieve success in life. Review: Anybody who has even an iota of desire to get the better riches that life has in store for us; those who think that if there was a way to get an access to those riches, material or non-material (which it seems that a few people are destined to enjoy) need to read this incredible masterpiece to get to increase their fair market value and obtain it. Burke, if you happen to read this, I want to let you know that you had a positive impact on my and my wife's life.
Rating: Summary: Is it just me? Review: Is it just me, or does anybody else read this guy and get sick of the "motivational seminar" approach? If this guy suggests motivational tapes and seminars one more time, Im going to throw up. The ideas that he shares are valuable, yet simplistic. This is a great entry level book. However, if you are an advanced thinker, worker and individual, you will find it echoing extremely familiar values with a heavy taint of motivational speaking. I just cant take anymore of this "stop the madness" approach. It's overdone and over commercialized. Unfortunately, the message often can get lost in the "energetic" hype. Not a bad read. Just not an exceptional piece. Not to mention that the cheesy, "professional" photo on the back just re-confirms my suspicion that Hedges is just another "motivational speaker" trying to convince you to buy his tapes and his other books. ---Jim

Rating: Summary: Just Starters Review: It is a good book however not exceptional. Not recommended for advanced thinkers or advanced readers. Good piece to start off and beginners. Gives an insight into the 10 valuable principles.
Rating: Summary: Great basic self-help. Review: This book helped me realize my potential without all the hype of the rah-rah stuff. It is pretty basic and allowed me to find my self-image that I already had inside to be the person I believe God wanted every single person to be. It is very easy to read and one of the few books that can be passed down to the younger generation, and hold their attention, for them to realize their potential too.
