5.0 out of 5 stars I waited 15 years for this book!, July 31, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Superself (Audio Cassette)

Back in 1978 I attended a Personal Growth Seminar by Givens (this was before it was called SuperSelf) mostly because a good friend of mine told me bout Givens. I was and still am BIG into personal development. Back in those days we had the PMA RALLIES with greats like Earl Nightingale, Norman Vincent Peale, Charlie "tremendous" Jones and others. I also bought the most popular books of the time and tapes by SMI, subscribed to Success Unlimited (NOW Success Magazine) and Science of Mind. What, I asked my friend can this Givens guy teach me that I don't already know? The answer came after I attended the seminar. My friend told me that Mr Givens was a "remarkable man" and he certaintly was. He has he "unique strategies" and he definitely did. I reached goals faster than ever before. I could push myself harder with less effort than ever before. I becme more effective and to use a term that Givens used a lot I was able to "compress time"! ; to do in days what used to take me weeks or even months!A few years ago I purchased SUPERSELF AND BOUGHT THE AUDIO TAPE. It was like 1978 again. Strategies that I had forgotten were renewed and once again, I started to get results in record breaking time. Some of the topics may be familiar---Dreams, Goals and Visualization, Givens has a way of presenting his ideas that gets you to get results. Putting goals in alignment with my values and setting up an action plan as per the Givenizer made a incredible difference for me. About 20 years ago a very good friend of mine told me about Givens. Now I would like to do the same for you. I strongly recommend SUPERSELF for the ultimate in achievement and effectiveness.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mandatory Reading For anyone who wants MAXIMUM EFFECTIVENESS, July 30, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Superself (Audio Cassette)

I went out and bought this book after seeing Charles Givens on the Maury Povich show. This program is outstanding and is several grades above the usual positive "pump you up" motivational type books out there. You get all caught up in the motivation--then you say to yourself; "Now what I am supposed to do?"

SuperSelf provides the what. It shows you the kind of person you have to be to be a success. The theme of this book is effectiveness and who knows more about effectiveness than a man that turned $500 to a quarter of a billion.

My own personal testimony is that I now get twice as much done in half the time, actually achieve the goals that I set ( I have always been a goal setter, just never a goal getter) overcame my fear of public speaking, started a very successful business and significantly improved my relationships.

I particularly enjoyed the section on how to handle dumpers and drainers. These people always annoyed me. Prio! r to SuperSelf, I didn't know how to politely get away and more importantly be of help when possible.

SuperSelf taught me to be the cause of my life instead of the affect. I am now in control, have more energy and am more relaxed.

I believe that this is the best and the most important book that Givens has written to date. This book is about living. About joy and the feeling of aliveness. About personal achievement. About happiness and creating strong personal relationships.

I don't know if there is one book that can do it all, SUPERSELF comes darn close. Buy it, read it and apply the principles. You'll be glad you did!

5.0 out of 5 stars I DOUBLED MY EFFECTIVENESS WITH THE SUPERSELF STRATEGIES!, September 20, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Superself (Audio Cassette)

The strategies on this tape really work! Before Superself (I also own the book), I found myself very efficient, busy, busy, busy but not as effectve as I would have liked to be. I now get more done in half the time. I am also more calm and relaxed during tense periods where I used to lose my cool. Superself, the tape and the book should be a part of anyones personal development library.
