1.0 out of 5 stars Corporate Evangelism
I have a few concerns with the words Willie Jolley writes and speaks.

Never quote the bible then talk about going out and doing all you can to make more money. Do you really believe Jesus condones the desire to gain "worldly" things Willie? You talked the entire time about your riches and have the nerve to quote proverbs...

I have a little tip...

This review is from: It Only Takes a Minute to Change Your Life!: A Motivational and Inspirational Revolution That Will Show You How to Release the Power Within You (Mass Market Paperback)
I am very glad that I chose to grab a copy of this book. It packs a lot of wisdom into a small book. The message in it in is pretty much saying, "You can if you want to." I'm glad I have it here with me. It also inspired one of my new shows. :-) Understanding how that one minute is so important will change your thought process. The minute you make a choice to go for that goal is important. I love it and I will be referring back over and over again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Self-Esteem Booster, October 31, 1999

This review is from: It Only Takes a Minute to Change Your Life!: A Motivational and Inspirational Revolution That Will Show You How to Release the Power Within You (Mass Market Paperback)
I read this book while sitting in a dentist office-and that day my life changed. Jolley's rare gift of verbal expression had me overwhelmed. After reading it, I made some drastic changes in my lifestyle. I realized it was up to me to change things about myself and I didn't need the approval of anyone else before I decided to do so. If anyone needs a boost with their self-esteem this book is a sure-fire winner. I bought the paperback version so that it would fit nicely inside my purse, anytime a needed a little "boost" while I am traveling.

I have a few concerns with the words Willie Jolley writes and speaks.

Never quote the bible then talk about going out and doing all you can to make more money. Do you really believe Jesus condones the desire to gain "worldly" things Willie? You talked the entire time about your riches and have the nerve to quote proverbs...

I have a little tip for you Willie, when you write or speak, don't use Microsoft / Bill Gates as examples of success. You do know that they were found guilty in a court of law numerous times of illegal practices to get where they are right? They lie, steal, and cheat to get ahead. Will you be endorsing Martha Stewart and Enron next? Maybe use Tyco or Halliburton as an example of how to succeed and make loads of money.

I have a little tip for you too Willie, maybe a little something you can throw in your speeches or possibly your next book: Tell the people you talk to, that no matter how much money they get, that in life, happiness is what really counts. Just, do something everyday that makes you smile. You don't have to brainwash yourself by repeating affirmations of "I am happy" 800 times a day. You don't have to force yourself to be a type-a personality. You don't have to climb the corporate ladder of achievement to have a wonderful fulfilling life. No Willie, all you need is to accept you for who you are, and strive to be happy. I smile everyday. I don't have to brainwash myself to get there.

You're either the bee or the windshield? Too bad life isn't so black and white as to only be reduced to such.

I say, seek out the fields of flowers and avoid the highway altogether.
