5.0 out of 5 stars Switch... it's that easy., March 20, 2006
This review is from: The Winner's Attitude: Using the "Switch" Method to Change How You Deal with Difficult People and Get the Best Out of Any Situation at Work (Paperback)
I wish I would have read this book when I was 18 years old. I would have made a lot of different decisions and not quit so many jobs. Definately worth reading. I've used some of the techniques in my personal life and it's helped alot. Good stuff.

5.0 out of 5 stars Life changing -- the best of the best!, October 5, 2006
This review is from: The Winner's Attitude: Using the "Switch" Method to Change How You Deal with Difficult People and Get the Best Out of Any Situation at Work (Paperback)
After reading several other books by various authors on how to deal with difficult people, I found the Gees book to go beyond all expectations. It is a way of life we can all engage in to make our own personal world and this world we live in a better place. This book is not about changing others but how we can change our own perspective regarding other people and events. It gives us control over our own life which is good since we all know we cannot control others. The greatest thing about the Gees wisdom is that it will not cost us anything except the price of the book to learn how to "Switch". Yet, the rewards are immense both personally and professionally for anyone or any corporation who takes the time to practice the "Switch". Thank you Val and Jeff!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Valuable!, November 2, 2006
By 
This review is from: The Winner's Attitude: Using the "Switch" Method to Change How You Deal with Difficult People and Get the Best Out of Any Situation at Work (Paperback)
i agree. i got this book to deal with a specific person in my life and found a whole new way to deal with everyone in my life. it's great. i wish they had tapes too remind me of the information or seminars to go to because it's the way i want to be. this book is essentially how to be happy and who doesn't need a little bit of help every once and a while. it's full of heart. i loved it. thank you. "Switch!"
