I can't say enough good things about this book. It's not filled with a lot of "Guru" advice with a variety of "secrets" to being happy and successful in life. This books outlines and teaches true principles that a person can easily live their life by to start having the kind of life they have always wanted. I've already started telling everyone I know to check out this book. This is also one of the most empowering and encouraging books I've ever read. I've also got my 11 yr old son reading it. For the first time in years - I can't wait to see what the future holds.
***Updated**** It's been just over a year since I read this book and I thought I would give an update. Something about this book and the way that it was written connected with me differently that any other "success/self-help" book I'd ever read before. I've been reading similar books for the past 15 years. I usually see a slight difference after having read a book and then I end up back where I was.
NOT THIS TIME.
Since having read this book (within 1 year) I've started my own company and nearly tripled my income doing something I find challenging and I love to do. I'm now making 6 figures and I have no intention of stopping there. I started watching my diet and gym routines closer after reading this book and now I'm nearly 37 yrs old and I'm in the best shape of my life. My marriage has never been better and the relationship with my 4 children is probably the best it's ever been as well.
Simply stated that after reading this book I began to believe again that the small things I do every day really did make a difference. Even though I couldn't see it, there was a difference - good or bad. I had lost that understanding somewhere along the line with the ups and downs of life. Some people might get discouraged that the small things can make such a big difference, but I found it to be incredibly empowering. All of the sudden life became 'doable" again. I've read and re-read this book 3 times, bought the audio and I'm on my 4th time reading it. I've also completed nearly 30 other books in this area. While I've found some real "gems" none of them have had the impact on me that this one has. I would recommend it to anyone and everyone that wants or is even considering ways to improve their life.
"By small and simple things, great things are brought to pass."
