In my view, throw away any other self-help or motivational books you have and just read "Silent Master". The wisdom Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim shares in "Silent Master" is so clear and simple. I read snipets of this book every day becuase it constantly inspires and motivates me. It's given me the courage to overcome weaknesses (like being shy) that I thought were impossible to overcome.

The reason I give this book the highest rating is simple. It works! I have read and re-read this book many times and I personally use it as a guide book for my life.
For example, I used to always be very hard and unforgiving to myself and never give myself a chance to improve. But Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim gives great advice, on page 47, she says, "When you see you have made a mistake, you don't have to pound yourself further into the ground. You need love - not condemnation, not punishment - when you recognize that you need to make a change. Self-condemnation and guilt prevent learning because they keep you focused on what's wrong instead of what's right. "

Advice like this is all throughout the book. It just makes a lot of sense, and it has worked in my life. I am a very practical person and I only follow and use what works for me. This book does!

This book is suprising in how well it describes the rewards and difficulties I've gone through as I've decided to improve my own life and look for something better. It has actually encouraged me to set and achieve much higher goals than I ever would have on my own! What's more, it continues to motivate and encourage me, because it helps me identify many of the road blocks I run into, and helps me find ways around them.

The examples given of Grandmaster Kim's own life and experiences make it obvious that she has personal experience with the whole process, including the discouragements and disappointments of making mistakes. But it's also obvious that she has personal experience pushing past those obstacles, because she delivers new ways of facing challenges that I haven't found anywhere else -- ways that for me have actually worked, and lasted.

People have told me before "Yes, you can do it!" But Grandmaster Kim's books go much further than that, also telling me *why* and *how*. I honestly haven't found that support anywhere else, and this book has paid for itself many, many times over! I highly recommend it!

She runs a cult. MLM marketing and a suedo martial arts. Has a mystery background. Rips off her own people and rips off the general public. If you need a self help book then look for one that can actually help. Google her and see what happens although she has a lot of fake web sites.
If you support her then you support her cult. Notice all the earlier reviews are fake and not real reviews.

Tae Yun Kim's book, Seven Steps to Inner Power, is a great introduction to taking charge of your (my) life, and Silent Master takes all the great pointers and insights and wisdom of the first book and expands on it even further. There are short insights and meditations, and simple practice sessions outlined on how to apply all the great thoughts and insights in your daily life. I pick up the book for just a minute or two every day to help get a great re-charge and keep me positive and focused. If there was ever a manual written on how to have a happy and successful life, this is it!
