5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent program by Dr. Waitley, June 17, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Psychology of Motivation (Audio Cassette)

Dr. Denis Waitley has always been my favorite personal development trainer. I have many of his books and audio tape programs. Reading his material is great; listening to him is even better!

This tape set covers Motivation and includes the latest research. While other people offer advice that may work, Dr. Waitley offers advice that is working and is backed by scientific research.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too many anecdotes, January 30, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Psychology of Motivation (Audio Cassette)

I have heard a lot about Denis Waitley, but was disappointed with this set. It was padded with several lengthy anecdotes, to which I wouldn't want to listen more than once or twice. I didn't find much of interest or use here.

5.0 out of 5 stars Psychology of Motivation, December 10, 1999

This review is from: Psychology of Motivation (Audio Cassette)

I am very much involved in personal development. This tape series makes it very clear to understand why so many people lose interest in their goals. That we need intrinsic values as a motivator. Since a very young age I am a high achiever, with many personal victories. But I had difficulties to understand what kept me going, even when the odds had been against me. If you want to know why you are feeling an "internal" drive to keep going, even against the odds, or if you have difficulties getting motivated at all, these tapes help you understand - and perhaps change. I highly recommend these tapes from Denis Waitley.
