YOU WERE BORN TO SUCCEED... WITH HELP FROM OG MANDINO !, April 30, 2000
Why is one man sad and another happy ? Why is one man joyous and prosperous and another poor and miserable ? Why is one man fearful and anxious and another full of faith and confidence ? Why does one man have a beautiful luxurious home while another lives out a meagre existence in a slum ? Why is one man a success and another an abject failure ? Why does one man convince himself that he is only entitled to achieve mediocrity while another knows that luxury and success are his for the taking ?
The seeds of success are in us all if only we will recognise them and feed them.
This amazing trio of books are a superb example of motivational material at its best. Ogs syle is superb. Easy reading, with loads of common sense (that we could all do with at times !)and some brilliantly simple exercises that will help you get exactly what you want from life, be it wealth, contentment, spiritual & family happiness. Whatever you want from life, the words of Og Mandino will help you.
As a successful busnessman who was once on the brink of financial and emotional ruin, I cannot endorse the experiences and works of Mr Mandino enough.
Books that make your neck hairs tingle are rare. This one does just that and leaves you wanting more !
Talking of which, having read this book I was compelled to read "The Greatest salesman Part II", "A better way to live" and "The Choice". Absolutely brilliant.
We all need some help getting from where we are to where we want to be. Whatever your desire in life, wealth, success, a more peaceful existence, a better way to live ...... add any of Ogs books to your basket. You won't regret it !
Essential reading for those people who really want to take control of their lives and claim the success WE ALL DESERVE.......

Greatest Reading, June 8, 2004
By A Customer
I bought this trilogy when it first came out. I have read it once a month--these three books are wonderful lessons for daily living. I have been retired for 13 years now and have volunteered with AARP and the Environmental Alliance for Senior Involvement (EASI). I have traveled across the country many times in my volunteering capacity and met wonderful people in all 50 states and three provinces in Canada. If it were not for this triology by Og Mandino, I probably would not have done my volunteering. His inspiring writings just keep me going and wanting to do better every where I go. I keep his book with me and read it as I travel--when I finish I begin again--there's always something new--something that inspires me toward greater work--my Dad told me many, many years ago that you can never waste money buying good books--this is one of the best investments in books I have ever made. I think you will agree with me when you read it.

STOP - BUY THIS BOOK NOW AND WAKE UP!!!, August 23, 1998
By A Customer
There just isn't enough praise or admiration I could bestow on my beloved Og Mandino. I can't believe there isn't thousands of glowing reviews here. This trilogy is AWESOME - everything Og writes is INCREDIBLE. These books alone are all a quick and easy read but there is much more to them that can take you years to process. I read them for the first time in 1986 and was reborn after reading "The Greatest Miracle" - it affected me to the root of my soul as it has many others whom I have bought the book for. Please, please, please buy this book - do the world a favour because you will be a much greater human being after experiencing it - I promise! Email me and let me know how it affected you when you are done.
