Summary: Not For Dabblers or Those Comfortable With Failure
Review: Allen's hit the ball out of the park again! Another splendid manual to help us all evolve ourselves and our culture. Readers looking for spiritual baby food won't find it here, though. If you aren't sure you're ready to make money or tap into Spirit to attain peace of mind and financial security, go read something else. This is the nuts-n-bolt practical application of his apparent lifelong study and application of timeless spiritual principles. He's done an artistic job of merging things we've heard before with ways to actually use and remember them, as well as suffused the book with interesting ways of looking at life and money. I have been an ardent fan of all his books, but this one seems to be the frosting on an already-expansive literary career. I read it two weeks ago and am now negotiating a huge contract with more confidence than I have ever felt. Astonishing book - use it and you will grow.

Summary: A Lazy Person's Guide to Lasting Wealth & Fulfillment
Review: Can you really get everything you want in life --wealth, security, personal fulfillment-- as the book suggests "...in an easy and relaxed manner, in a healthy and positive way?" Marc Allen is living proof that there's a better way than Type A, the speed-through-traffic, waiting-for-a-heart-attack type; in fact he proudly labels himself as a Type Z. This self-made millionaire generally gets rolling around 11; taking his sweet time, he invests in a little meditation and prayer, followed by his favorite double latte, as he casually and most gradually weaves his way to "work" (oh, and by the way, he doesn't do Mondays). But just as the state of true meditation is not a dormant, nihilistic place, this conscious laziness is hardly sluggish nothingness. We simply need put into motion some of the proposed processes from The Millionaire Course --meditation, prayer, affirmation, core belief therapy-- and allow our subconscious mind to go about doing the work for us. But don't think this is all a batch of New Age meta-frizzle --it is in fact a very practical guide for creating and sustaining the life you've always dreamed of. It leads you to the vocation that you'd really be happy with, then shows you --step-by-step-- how to write your plan, find funding, and much more. Over 150 tried and proven keys to success that lead you to the prosperity, material and spiritual, that we all desire. I wish I had found this book when I was a younger man; I have no doubt success would have arrived much sooner, with a lot less stumbling along the way.

Summary: Great Book To Live Your Dreams and Make Tons of Money
Review: Everybody should immediately buy this book. Marc Allen sets out the specific steps that you need to take to live the life of your dreams. It's a modern day version of Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich." He describes very clearly how you need to specifically figure out your ideal life and he shows you what steps you need to take to live your ideal life. One of the strongest parts of the book is that he specifically explains how anyone can overcome their fears and doubts about success. This is so critical because most people don't succeed as a result of their fears and doubts that they can't actually be successful. It's a book that will solidly put you on the path to realizing your goals and dreams, including becoming a milliionaire. I would also strongly recommend Brian Tracy's book, "Goals."

Summary: Cool Idea But Bad Writing
Review: Everyone should immediately buy this book. Marc Allen sets out in a very clear fashion exactly what you need to know and do to live the life of your dreams. He gives you very specific tools that you can use immediately to improve your life and achieve success. One of the best parts of the books is the section on how to eliminate your doubts and fears. This is very important since the reason most people don't succeed is based on their fears and doubts that they can be successful. This book is a modern version of Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich." Marc Allen's examples of how these steps have made him successful were very helpful. A great book!!! I also strongly recommend Brian Tracy's book called "Goals."

Summary: Reach Your Financial Goals Doing What You Love
Review: I recommend "The Millionaire Course" to any one who has a dream of making money doing what they love. The keys Marc Allen suggest are truly guidelines to success. As a single parent and business owner, my favorite and most helpful affirmation, "in an easy and relaxed manner, in a healthy and positive way", has helped me stay focused on what is important in my business and personal life while staying true to my vision. The book is a wondeful guide for anyone who has thought about creating their own socially responsible business or for seasoned business owners. With clear, simple and practical ways, Marc Allen shows you how to fulfill your hightest personal, business and finacial goals.

Summary: Same stuff, different book....
Review: Nothing new here, folks. All this book does is give page after page of quotes from other writers of books on spirituality (James Allen, Lenedra Carroll, Eckhart Tolle,etc..) as well as other historical figures. The rest is just a bunch of his, hazy at best, personal experiences. The level of this book can best be pinpointed by relaying one of his "keys": "Work smarter, not harder"
The constant advertisments to purchase the above mentioned author's books also became very tiresome.

Summary: Rush Out & Get This One
Review: This book embodies what Suze Orman aspires to. The author lays out a philosophy of getting rich without killing yourself doing it and then, shows you how in a step-by-step fashion. He backs it up with examples including ones from his own life. He also shows you how to become rich in a way that follows the basic spiritual principles of integrity, service and honor. Marc Allen should know. I had the pleasure of meeting him in person, and he is indeed a laid-back dude. You would never peg him as being the usual Type A, tight collar running a multi-million dollar corporation. But indeed, he owns the publishing company that produced the runaway bestseller The Power of Now (he discovered it himself), so you can't argue about whether he's successful or not. He is humble and happy, a wonderful example for us all. This book never gets into the eye-glazing detail (based on fear) that makes many money books virtually unreadable. If you follow these steps, which aren't hard, I don't think it's possible NOT to become a millionaire in a mellow, unstressed, deeply integrous way. What could be better?
