Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

This self-help book was written for those who want to "discover and unlock [their] hidden potential." Using his own observations, plus interviews with more than 50 very successful people, Farber discusses those elements necessary for achieving beyond the norm, including: learning from failure; finding your motivation; setting goals; using positive role models; and understanding how your brain learns. For the genre, not exactly new ground, though Farber's points are concise and free of jargon. Also to his credit, he spends substantial space discounting the "myth" of overnight success. Includes quotes and advice from Senator Bill Bradley, Olympian Bruce Jenner, political consultant Mary Matalin, businessman T. Boone Pickens, and many others. Brian McCombie

5.0 out of 5 stars New Ideas...not just a new spin on old ones, January 21, 1999
This review is from: Diamond in the Rough: The secret to finding your own value - and making your own success. (Paperback)
Barry Farber has written a clear, concise book with new ideas that he helps you to execute. I found myself in many chapters and was happy to see easy solutions to the problems I am experiencing. This book is refreshing and helpful and even though I read a library copy, I am ordering my own so I can keep referring to it!
