Editorial Reviews

From Booklist
Hall argues that developing true independence of thought and action--the Maverick Mindset--is "the highest order of courage," especially in these corporate group-think times, when bucking convention is strictly verboten. Among the options presented for those ready to make the break is using positive experiences from the past as a way to find this courage. Another avenue is to execute a number of small successes, which can then foster confidence. Hall also stresses the identification of one's fears and regularly confronting them as the key to overcoming those irrational roadblocks to independence. Having specific goals is also important, because it not only helps people devise plans but also helps them stay on track despite the inevitable failures. Hall then argues that the ultimate responsibility for success lies with the individual. Vigorous prose and short, forceful chapters create a high-impact message of courage and faith. Brian McCombie

5.0 out of 5 stars Wisdom on how to march to the beat of your own drum, July 15, 1997
By A Customer
Creativity Wizard Doug Hall has written an elegant little book on what it takes "inside" to create your own vision. Packed with earthy stories from his grandmother and other friends, Doug talks about courage, overcoming fear, having a life plan, taking responsibility for your actions ... all sorts of good stuff that would have made his mentor, Benjamin Franklin, proud. These strong and proud values have obviously served the author well, and I am delighted he took the time to pass them along to others. A great anchoring point to the chaos of the creative mind

5.0 out of 5 stars Read it, learn it, live it, February 16, 1997
By A Customer
.0.0Be careful when you read this book. It's a roller coast of a ride. I stayed up all night to read it the first time and it blew me away. It still does. I dare you to read The Maverick Mindset. You might just go out and do that one thing you've ALWAYS wanted to do, but were waiting to win the lottery first
