Mark Yarnell (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 1999

After years of struggling to achieve success and an balanced life, Mark Yarnell developed self mastery and peak performance principles which he applies to his own life to experience Self-Wealth, a wealth that includes financial prosperity, meaningful relationships, and a sense of peace within. From there he sought to teach others what he learned.

Best-selling author and multi-millionaire Mark Yarnell, and his co-authors, corporate strategist Valerie Bates and organizational psychologist John Radford, PhD., are your guides and mentors as you learn principles of thought and action you can use today. Self-Wealth encompasses the latest in self mastery and peak performance technology. No matter where you are in your life now, you can recreate yourself to succeed in all areas of your life. Yarnell, Radford, and Bates show you:

The crucial key: a goal bigger than your personal wants. How to affirm your way into a more effective behavior. Methods of replacing old defeatist "tapes" with success stories. That synchronicity is real: benefit from life's "fortuitous intersections." How rich is rich? What is true wealth? Is it okay to be wealthy?

5.0 out of 5 stars Tremendous book. The authors see it BIG and keep it simple!, January 28, 2000

This review is from: Self-Wealth : Creating Prosperity, Serenity, and Balance in your Life (Hardcover)

When I was in my early twenties I bought my first "personal development" book, written by Anthony Robbins. Little did I know this would start a long journey of studying self-help litterature, listening to motivational audiotapes, and even attending a few inspirational lectures and seminars. Now, with all that I've read and all that I've studied, I must say that Self Wealth has probably had the most profound impact on me to date. And I say this even though it's been less than a week since I finished the book! Maybe it's because the timing and the message was right for me just now. Maybe it's the result of the book's powerful simplicity.. In any case, I really feel like "I got it!" Honestly, this book really tied it all together for me and I am sure it will be a tremendous asset for anyone. No matter what your background, occupation, age, sex or location may be, this book can really help you change, reach your goals and live more abundant and balanced lives. I know this without a doubt... Still, YOU need to USE the principles and ideas that are presented. In Self Wealth you will also find tips and excercises to help you do just this. Again, it's simple, it's easy and it's practical. It is all this and more... It's one GREAT, GREAT book!

This review is from: Self-Wealth : Creating Prosperity, Serenity, and Balance in your Life (Hardcover)

Three of my favorate personal development books are The Power of Positive Thinking, Think and Grow Rich, and The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People. Now I have four. Self-Wealth restates some time proven self-development principles combined with alot of very inciteful new material. This is a book you can't put down, and I know I got more information from my second read. Great stuff!
