As a millionaire myself I can say that I DO think this way!,
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Think Like a Millionaire (Hardcover)
This book is a concise exposition of the power of focused thought and visualizing success.Have a purpose, have a plan and take action - and responsibility - and you will be a millionaire too (if that is what you want). The book could be titled "How To Think Like a Successful Person" where YOU define what is "successful"; with that definition, success is unavoidable. (Even the homeless are successful at what they've chosen.) The book might appear simplistic but that is so because it contains wisdom. Wisdom appears foolish to fools and obvious to wise people. The information of this book is at the level of basic truth; use it and succeed; declare that it's "too obvious to be true" and you sneer at the sunshine. A very good book well worth its price if you consider the cost as the seed of an investment.

My favorite book on wealth,
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Think Like a Millionaire (Paperback)
This is my favorite book on the creation of wealth. It says nothing that hasn't been said before. Yet this book says it simply, concisely and distills what could take years to learn into a short and complete book. This is the first book I give people who ask me about money.

There are better books on the market than this one,
By
This review is from: How to Think Like a Millionaire (Hardcover)
Following the "modelling" ideas of NLP, I thought this a good book to buy. This asumption was based upon the title. Upon reading it, I found very little substance to it, that cannot be found elsewhere, in a better form.My advice if you are strugling then buy WISHCRAFT by Barbara Sher, this book will give you everything, that this book fails to deliver. I could only recomend this title, as a foundation book in positive thinking, giving you a broad outline of some key ideas. There is very little practical substance to make a big difference. This is not really a HOW TO...manual. Recomended but with great caution!!

Too simple and broad to be worthy of your time,
This review is from: How to Think Like a Millionaire (Paperback)
I will inevitably experience some blowback being among the few reviewers furnishing a poor rating for this book; however, as one will note from my reviews I am far less interested in status than I am in upholding the integrity of my reviews with brutal honesty when necessary. I read a number of books every month and it is only logical there will be a portion I do not consider worthwhile of your time.
I do not advocate How to Think Like a Millionaire as the content presented is neither new nor uncommon. When searching through the near endless supply of motivational and self help achievement books, it is evident those works that offer the most benefit introduce new and profound content or inspire one to lasting action. There is nothing among the pages of this book that achieves this. I admire any author who puts forth the time and effort in an attempt to add value; however, Fisher and Allen merely present a broad summary of some basic principles with writing that lacks any articulate qualities. I would rate this near the bottom among the hundreds of self help books I have read, and thus I do not recommend this book

Save your money!,
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Think Like a Millionaire (Paperback)
Remember those fluffy Life 101 books - the ones written on only half a page, with some dippy quote on the other page? Fisher's books use extra wide margins and line spacing. Save your money for books with substance, like Peter Lynch's "Learn to Earn," Ben Stein's "Bunkhouse Logic," or Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich."

Fantastic!,
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Think Like a Millionaire (Paperback)
I've been in a "prosperity conscious" mode for the past several weeks and have been devouring books on money. I found Mark Fisher's book one of the best! I have highlighted sections on nearly every page. Yes, it's "old" information, but it never hurts to hear it again and again and again. That's how we change that subconscious mind he talks about. Truly, if you follow the principles, you will learn to Think Like a Millionaire.

A Deceptively Familiar Read--With Plenty to Consider,
By A Customer
This review is from: How to Think Like a Millionaire (Hardcover)
Having read a number of similar books, I found the content of this one to be familiar--deceptively so. It is a short book, clearly written, and easy to read. But within its covers is plenty of focused advice to consider. While other books use more pages to say essentially the same thing, this one does it better with brevity. At one point the authors recommend "checking in" regularly with your gut feelings, and asking for help when you need it. How nice it is to validate gut feelings with another helpful reading of this succinct book.

Designed to make you re-think your own approach to your own life.,
By Ned Middleton (British professional underwater photo-journalist & author) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)
This review is from: How to Think Like a Millionaire (Paperback)
Having just reviewed another work with exactly the same title, it is curious to note they are both very different books by different authors. Once again, however, this is not a "how to get rich quick" book but one which seeks to get you to rethink your own approach by "putting your own desires into action." In short, if you are struggling with the day-to-day financial calls on your limited resources (and most of us are!) and your abiding philosophy is that "something will turn up one day" then this really is the book for you - if only to get you THINKING!
Written by co-authors who are themselves millionaires, I got the immediate impression from this book that they know what they are talking about in a book where the content is written in an easy-to-read-and-understand manner which will appeal to many. As is stated on the book's cover; "you can programme yourself to succeed." As I mentioned in my review of that other book with the same title, of all the many hundreds of people I ever met in my former career in the British Army, I shall always remember the private soldier from another regiment who lived close to me on one military base. With only a private soldier's salary, he had two cars, a caravan and a small lorry which were hired out for profit. He did not come across as a very intelligent person - in fact he had been a private for far too long. Nevertheless, his philosophy was; "money is a frame of mind. Either you spend it or put it to work." Little wonder the officers from his own regiment would often joke that they would very likely be asking Private XXXX for a job when they eventually left the army... It is the underlying message from this book which reminds me of that man. It is a book to get you, the reader, to start thinking positively about every aspect of your life so that you can inject a more constructive pattern into everything you undertake. I finished this book with a lot to think about. In some areas I have already achieved a great deal but in others not. This book has, therefore crossed my desk `none too soon" so don't wait until it's too late for you. NM

Think like a millionaire and you will become one, right?,
By
This review is from: How to Think Like a Millionaire (Paperback)
Think like a millionaire and you will become one, right? It's is not that simple, but it definitely sells books. It is easy to think differently for a minute and get excited. Even though it is not easy to achieve success, thinking differently is a must. I cannot say that by simply thinking like a millionaire leads to success, but I will say that not thinking like a millionaire definitely leads to no success. It's the old saying, "You have to believe in yourself." The author of another book, Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, explains how thoughts lead to feelings, feelings lead to actions, and actions lead to results.
