Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Maintain the Marshmallow Principle-with this follow-up to the international bestseller!

Everyone's favorite stumbling striver returns in another simple and telling parable from acclaimed motivational expert Joachim de Posada. Arthur has been practicing the principles of success, but after he accepts a lucrative new job, he finds himself reverting to his old gobbling habits. Perfect for anyone in transition, this book explains how to apply the principles of success to changing circumstances. In our go-go culture, "wait" has become the most offensive of four-letter words, but patience is not the same as self-sacrifice, and holding out for something you really want is far more satisfying than settling for whatever is available. Don't Gobble the Marshmallow...Ever! teaches the importance of lifelong non-nibbling-and promises sweet rewards.

About the Author
Joachim de Posada, Ph.D., is a bilingual public speaker, TV and radio personality, author, and newspaper columnist who has provided motivational coaching for several major sports teams. He has conducted sales and management programs for major corporations, including Wal-Mart. An adjunct professor at the University of Miami, he is the author of the highly successful How to Survive Among Piranhas: Motivation to succeed.

Ellen Singer is the award-winning writer of Quicksand: One Woman's Escape from the Husband Who Stalked Her. She is currently at work on her first novel.

5.0 out of 5 stars Self control will pay off, December 6, 2007
In this easy to read book, Joachim de Posada and his co-writer bring us the continuation to Don't eat the Marshmallow Yet. This book stands alone even if you haven't read the first one. The Marshmallow Principle that is the basis for both books is one of the most important lessons for anyone who wants to build wealth throughout their lifetime. It provides you steps that you can take to identify need from want and help you build a future in which your needs and wants can be taken care of. Read it and you will be on the road to your future success, pass it up, and you will continue to live your wants until your needs cannot be taken care of.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple, yet powerful steps to follow for success, June 26, 2009
The Other Kind of Smart: Simple Ways to Boost Your Emotional Intelligence for Greater Personal Effectiveness and Success

Having thoroughly enjoyed Don't Eat The Marshmallow Yet, I was eagerly anticipating the next sequel. It doesn't disappoint. The authors point out through time tested and proven fables that success is not rocket science, it is a matter of continuously adhering to certain principles and practices that have proven themselves time and again. Like the first book this is a must read for all high school graduates going out into the world.
