The valuable lesson contained in this book is that the best way to attract prosperity is to abandon the pursuit of wealth and allow it to flow toward oneself. The ancient laws of attraction are explained in plain language and applied in an economic framework—a new perspective not found in other popular explications of these principles. A path to prosperity is offered in tandem with guidance for achieving harmony in both professional and personal spheres while strategies to overcome destructive thinking patterns and to sustain the flow of wealth while channeling it constructively are delineated. Profiles of individuals who pursued their passion rather than profit, and subsequently reaped immense rewards, will inspire those seeking to transform their lives.

Learning from Bob Proctor over coffee! A must experience!,
By Craig Mattice (Richmond, VA USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: It's Not About the Money (Paperback)
This is a brand new book by renowned author Bob Proctor, published in 2008. I actually had to add it to the catalog of Facebook's Visual Bookshelf program.
I found this book enjoyable, down to earth, full of common sense and positive authoritative guidance and direction. It is like speaking to Bob Proctor over coffee in his home. The book deals with a primary premise that "Money is not the goal." It is the result of many factors and the most important is our internal belief, thinking, and attitude toward money, prosperity, and wealth. A very friendly well designed and presented book including 10 well written chapters in this 166 page paperback. The quality of this book's contents and authority of the author can be summed up in a quote from Jack Canfield. "If you're smart, you will read this book. Since I started applying Bob Proctor's principles and strategies in my life, my net worth has multiplied 40 times! Now this master teacher has put his best wisdom and insights into this great book." Need I say more, other than I wholly recommend this book to everyone interested in abundance, prosperity, success, wealth building, personal development and growth. by Craig Mattice

This review is from: It's Not About the Money (Paperback)
I read the book within 2 days. Could hardly put it down. Very much to the point. No sugar coating. I love when Bob Proctor says : "If you are not giving your dream the time it needs to fit into your life, then, the dream will never become your life". Stunning !

A realistic approach to getting rich!,
This review is from: It's Not About the Money (Your Coach in a Box) (Audio CD)
While other "think rich" books practically promise that thinking "happy" thoughts about money will cause bundles of cash to fall from the sky and land on your head, Bob Proctor offers realistic strategies to overcome poor thinking patterns and behaviors in favor of more positive and profitable ones. He uses a common sense approach to everything from believing in your own potential, to goal setting to eliminating excuses.
In such an unstable job market, his emphasis on having multiple streams of income is one survival strategy everyone should adopt. My only criticism is the way he talks about multiple streams of income from media products which suggests that creating a web site or blog and writing a book guarantees the money will just come flowing in. As a blogger and the author of The Cheap Diva's Guide to Frugal and Fabulous Living: How to Shop Smart, Look Your Best, Decorate with Style and Have Fun for Less Money! I know that income from a blog or a book is not automatic, it requires dedication to marketing just like any other product or service. He explains why the right mental attitude is important to success, but Proctor does not sugarcoat the fact that in order to succeed you need to work for it. The title It's Not About the Money comes from his belief that in order to profit you need to be passionate about what you do and offer a product or service that benefits others.
