This book is amazing and the third I read from Michael. Again it is a great mixture of stories, tips, experiments to explore for yourself and the really joyful experience of reading this book and enjoying the smiles this book will inevitable bring to your face. If you are looking for an oh-so-serious-and-you-have-to-work-on-yourself-very-hard-book you might be disappointed for this book is simply fun! You'll be transformed and will have fun while doing so. It is effortless! In session one you are asked to write down some of your beliefs around life, yourself, people, money and happiness. I am still amazed about how profoundly these beliefs were changed after reading this book and it simply didn't feel like working but like having fun!
For me each of the ten sessions had the right length so I could read them easily and follow along with the experiments. I loved doing them and share them with friends. The style of writing is wonderful! It's just as if you were sitting in opposite chairs and had a long meaningful conversation. I love it and keep coming back to it to re-read certain pages or re-do certain experiments and find renewed inspiration or/and feeling as if I understand sessions more deeply. I am glad it transformed my life and I can already see the infectious way happiness is spreading within the circle of my friends! And that's great to see! Thanks for this amazing book!

Every once in a while you come across a book that can transform your life - every once in a loooooong while. This is one such book. On the face of it, this seems unlikely since the production quality is bad and the layout is not very appealing. But please do go beyond getting hung up on this because what is inside is pure gold.

On a superficial level this is a book by a successful coach who will help you become successful yourself by giving you a set of tools that really work. On this level it delivers well. But there is a deeper level. At this level, it changes how you view the world and actually becomes a vehicle for profound personal transformation. For example, in one of the chapters he talks about how you should strive to have an average day. There is method behind his madness. If you always strive to be exceptional and have a super day and every one tries to do the same then what is exceptional and super today quickly becomes commonplace and the level of stress goes up exponentially. If, on the other hand, you define what you would consider an average day in terms of what you want to accomplish in reaching your goals and actually do what that entails, you will quickly realize that you are producing 6 sigma results with little stress and much joy. On a deeper level, which he does not explicitly mention but the discerning reader can pick up, trying for an average day is a tool for subjugating the ego which is a necessity for spiritual progress and proclaimed so in many traditions.

This is true of every chapter. There are multiple layers, like an onion, and you gt to decide how many layers you will peel. I suspect that if you read it again, you will discover more layers on your own. Like Alice, you get to decide how deep you want to go down the rabbit hole.

This is not a book to be read. It is a work to be experienced. If you get it and do the exercises and follow the tips, you will not be the same person who started on the journey and will be much more at peace with yourself.

I know how effective what he prescribes is because I have been using similar exercises in my programs for decades. Check out my syllabus at [...]

I have most of Michael's books and audio. Many years ago I had a session with Michael that helped me a lot and so I know he is 'for real'. I really do have two copies of this book. One I keep for myself and fill with highlighter, and the other I lend out. It's gentle and almost meditative. It is practical in that if you do the exercises and work the changes you will change your allignment, inside and begin to get more creative and rewarding results outside. I thoroughly recommend this book!Supercoach: 10 Secrets to Transform Anyone's Life

WOW!! That's what I want to say first. I read a lot of motivational books, but I rarely finish those books. This one I did finish. From start to finish I learned real advice, insights, and tips I could use to make my life better. I'm familiar with Michael's work on Hay House and yet the information I learned from Super Coach had plenty of new content that I fond tremendously useful.

Michael has a gentle, sometimes humorous, and always simple way of presenting his gems of knowledge. If you want to improved your life and or help others to improve theirs, I would highly recommend this very uselful and easy to read book.

Super Coach is for anyone who wants go waaay beyond "self improvement" to truly transforming their life and way of "Being." If you are considering hiring a coach, read this book first and apply the information... you might just amaze yourself at what you can accomplish.

If you are a coach, it's 253 pages of pure gold. This book was first recommended to me by the Ultimate Coaches, Steve Hardison and Steve Chandler... and it astonished even them. Michael reveals the inner workings of transformation and anything less than that is as Steve Chandler says... "Is just rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic."

Super Coach is one of those rare books that have transformed my perception and how I show up for life... it's earned a spot on my "re-read at least 3 more times" bookshelf.

I received this book as a gift for my birthday last year - and it really has been that - a gift. It's a book I go back to time and time again. Michael has such an easy style, he's very easy to relate to and so much of the content has resonated with me. Every time I go back to it though, I get something different. It's like my subconscious picks out exactly what I need to see, read and hear at that moment. If you're thinking about coaching or making lasting personal change for yourself, this is a great book to help you along your journey.

I am in the process of becoming a coach myself and after listening to Michael Neill for 3 years and reading his material, I would say he is the model I follow for coaching. Supercoach is easy to read, simple exercises but transformative, fun and filled with wisdom. If you like Michael Neill, you will love this book.

I'm glad I got my copy early,

More clear and practical coaching advice from Michael Neill. While Supercoach builds on his previous work readers do not have to have read Michael's previous books to benefit from this one.

In the interest of full disclosure I have worked directly with Michael Neill for some time now. My copy of Supercoach is almost completely yellow from the highlighting. In my opinion, each of the ten secrets are powerful and worth the purchase price in themselves. It is not a book of "tricks" but a useful approach to transformation - changing you irrevocably for the better. The book goes over and above in delivering on its promises. Michael Neill is an amazing coach who has now given everyone the tools to be supercoached regardless of income. This is one to read over and over. It is almost impossible to act in your old habits once you "get it" and you can "get it" simply by reading and absorbing the material - effortless!
It IS the most transformative book I have read.

Seriously. This book is the best if you want to motivate yourself to be better in all aspects of your life. It can really change the way you think and act. If you follow the activities in each chapter, you will quickly see change in your day to day life. The main points that you will take out of reading this book are:
1. The world is what you think it is.
2. Well being does not come from what you do; it is the essence of what you are.
3. There is nowhere to get to.
4. What you decide will never impact your life as much as how you handle the consequences of that decision.
5. Every emotion you experience is a direct result of a thought, not the world around you.
7. You create other people by how you listen to them.
8. You can ask anyone for anything when you make it okay with them saying "no".
9. Everything you do ( or don't do) is a choice.
10. Clarity, structure, and boldness underpin every time-management system in the world.

Even though I have outlined the main points, it is truly worth reading the book. It is very well written, funny and uplifting.
