5.0 out of 5 stars Simple But Stinging, January 4, 2000

By 

George M. (Manila, Philippines) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Winners and Losers (Paperback)

This book effectively identifies the attitudes attributable to winners and losers in very, very simple and straightforward phrases. It makes you self-introspect to improving your outlook in life all the more. I got mine many years ago and never got it back when lent to a friend. Am eagerly awaiting reprint of the book and will order quite a number as fitting gifts to friends and loved ones.

5.0 out of 5 stars Valuable words to live by for both Business & Personal life, November 10, 1999

By 

Krissy (West Palm Beach, Florida) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Winners and Losers (Paperback)

The first time I encountered this book was in high school (1983) and a friend's father loaned it to me. A MILLION THANKS TO YOU MR. MESTON! I was so moved by this book that I have committed many of its words to memory, and have recommended it to probably hundreds of other people. Many times since then I have asked myself in certain situations, "Am I a winner, or a loser?" So, are YOU a "Winner" or a "Loser"? Read the book and find out.

5.0 out of 5 stars a very profound, easy to read book for all ages 6 to 160, February 5, 1999

This review is from: Winners and Losers (Paperback)

The book illustrates with clear phrases and illustrations the differences between winners and losers. Some of my favorite quotations come from this book and I morn the fact that my last copy was lent and never returned. Some illustrations of favorite quotes: "Winners focus, losers spray" "A winner speaks until he makes his point, a loser keeps talking until he blunts his point." (caviat: quoted from a possibly defective memory) -bz- P.S. PLEASE reprint!
