From the Author
Ned initially wrote How To Succeed In Life, Ideas and Principles They Don't Teach In School as a gift for his children. At first, he gave away copies...to business associates, friends and acquaintances. He soon was besieged with requests for more copies: Psychologists wanted copies for their patients, sales managers wanted books for their sales people, teachers asked for more copies for their students and school libraries, company presidents requested books for their employees.

How to Succeed in Life is simply the BEST Success book I have ever read. In an easy to read manner you give the reader the best success secrets around!! I also recommend your book along with the other best SUCCESS book I have ever read: 21 Days Countdown to Success by Chris Witting: Take charge of your life in less than a month. This book which complements your book is a hand-on interactive workbook on applying the best success secrets to improve one's life in the shortest time possible. Your book is a compilation and concise distilling of the world's best secrets to success and happiness. Your book is a treasure chest of priceless gems of timeless wisdom in an easy to read format. The invaluable quotes on success and happiness from famous and not so famous people through history, that reinforce and support your commentary, is worth the price of the book alone. I have been searching for many years for a book like yours. I will treasure it always and refer to it often and recommend it to everyone I meet. I have read hundreds of books and listened to many audiotapes on self-help, self-improvement, success, motivation and inspiration and because your book has the best parts of all that wisdom, I would give up all them and cherish and treasure your book as being the best of all!!! Thank you!!! I have bought 10 copies and given them away to all my family and friends as gifts from the heart. I believe that every person should read your book and could benefit immensely from applying it to and significantly improving their lives to be full of success and happiness. This book should be in every school and library in the nation, so that it could be made available to the largest number of readers possible! Thank you for sharing your collection of wisdom to the world and contributing to the best in success, self-help, inspirational and motivational literature.

Helpful Practical Advice,

This review is from: How to Succeed in Life: Ideas and Principles They Don't Teach in School (Paperback)
Grossman reminds his readers of the basic principles of success that can be immediately applied for direct positive results. He couples that with insightful analysis, such as his thoughts on opportunity which he says "will not be labeled 'opportunity.' It will be hidden. You've got to find it" (p. 35). The book is filled with motivational quotes from myriad sources. A lot of the principles he includes are from the Bible. Take for example his admonition on creating your best self. He calls it the law of self-determination and says, "you are now and you will become what you think about" (p. 116). This is from the book of Proverbs. From the New Testament he teaches what he calls the law of compensation and reminds us "as ye sow, so shall ye reap" (p. 116).Books like this one help a person to stay focused on the way life really works. Near the end of the book, he sums this up by noting "self-esteem is truly a self fulfilling prophecy" (p. 197). This book could do a lot of good for a lot of people if its principles were applied.

This review is from: How to Succeed in Life: Ideas and Principles They Don't Teach in School (Paperback)
I picked this book up after reading the title thinking the author was being very arrogant thinking he had all the answers but after reading just a few words I realized what an incredible book it really was. I have read my copy several times and pick it up when I start to get discouraged. I have also bought copies for all my friends and kids as I think it is was that important. It puts into words all the values your parents tried to instill in you when you were groing up. Great book!
