Reader Reviews
As is known to everybody, Brian Tracy is a big brand name in Success Methodology. Every writer, every mentor, and every successful person quoted him or mentioned him in their books or public speeches. I came to know him more after I subscribed to his company's email list as well as his YouTube channel from the year of 2017--- for his unique perceptions and most advanced approaches in success science. Can you believe it? --- He has authored nearly 100 books on how to achieve outstanding personal success. Undoubtedly, he is a pioneer for us to learn from and a guardian for me in my dreams! He is my teacher, forever and always. I wish I had known him earlier! Thanks so much, Brian!

This book suits very well for youth who can overcome obstacles in their life and realize success by practicing the doctrines written in it. People of all ages can motivate themselves by reading. It is written in very simple language, and the content is friendly to the soul. The text is also easily understandable and is so simple that it can be practiced in daily life without any difficulty for a feeling of higher satisfaction, peace, happiness, and towards self-realization.

Do not be deceived. I know it looks like a book, but it's solid gold, actually. Just start internalizing and putting into action some (if not all) of the ideas contained inside this book, and say goodbye to your negative, limited, wrinkled, hurt, and old self. Say hi and welcome the new, improved you! Thank you, Mr. Tracy!

Letting go of negative thoughts is most definitely very important. Negativity creates a bad environment all around and actually causes many illnesses. Try every day to think positive thoughts, and you will see a difference in your life. This book was a very good read indeed. Thanks to the author Brian Tracy.

One of the best self-development books out there. It's got such powerful and useful pieces of advice, especially for those who feel stuck in life. My favorite parts were when he talked about the power of the mind. It definitely changed my outlook on the topic. The book covers so many areas that you can move on and "unlock your full potential". Loved it.

Read both the Spanish version and English simultaneously- it’s an amazing message. I thoroughly enjoyed them both. However, the Spanish version resonated much deeper with me.

 

Read either version; it is chock-full of wisdom. You won’t be disappointed.

Short and practical. I liked the way the author explained things I have read in other books, but he does it very simply, and he repeats the idea a lot, so you get the lessons because of his constant repetitions. Life lessons explained without a lot of fancy words, the idea is that the reader gets the idea of what he wants us to understand so then we can apply it in the moment in our lives.

Since this book basically recommends total positivity and no criticism, I will refrain from that in this review. I actually do think it’s a great book, inspirational with lots of practical tips for helping one become a “fully functioning person”. It’s a quick read and well worth it.
