4.0 out of 5 stars A good book. Easy to read and effective., July 30, 1999

By	[e-mail] (Alexander, Arkansas) - See all my reviews

21 day countdown to success was recommended to me by a former World Champion Bullrider as a subsititute for Psycho-Cybernetics by Dr Maxwell Maltz. As a psychology major I felt the book didn't go where I wanted it to, that was probably because I am used to reading long and hard to understand books. 21 day Countdown is very easy to read. It is setup in a great way. It takes 21 days to read the book (a chapter a day) and roughly ten minutes to read a chapter. The book is excellent for people who find it hard to follow a book after they open it. Ten minutes a day for 21 days is fairly simple. Not only that, the techniques are effective. This book will put you on the road to success.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Solid Effort!, October 3, 2001

By	Rolf Dobelli "getAbstract.com" (Switzerland) - See all my reviews (TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

Every "road-to-success" book has some sort of gimmick that sets it apart from the many others in the genre. Chris J. Witting Jr.'s offering is a 21-day exercise regime designed to transform your personality, catapult you up the career ladder and pave over financial potholes. Witting asks readers to devote just a few minutes per day to his program, with each day devoted to a different aspect of getting your life on track. Naturally, that's a lot of ground to cover. But the inherent drama of the countdown to the end of the three-week cycle does keep your interest, thereby encouraging you to take the exercises seriously. And once you've taken that leap, the book does present some intriguing ideas on how to overcome inertia, simplify a cluttered life and harness your existing network of contacts. The instructions are easy to follow and the writing takes a pleasing, matter-of-fact tone. We [...] recommend this book to anyone interested in personal improvement, especially those who have been left less than fulfilled after falling for other "successful" gimmicks.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great workbook for anyone who wants to use what he learned, January 1, 2000

By	Steve Chung (Hong Kong) - See all my reviews

I've read many self-help books and learned a lot of principles from them. However, I don't even have any personal jounrnal after completing those books. Chris is doing really a good job in designing the 21 Days Countdown and let readers to have their potential ability to put into the real world day by day. I wrote my mission statement in life during the countdown, which I have never done before!

If you are lack of self review and lack of communication to your heart, get a pen and 21 Days Countdown, follow the exercises and you will find it incredibly work for you.
