Over Promises and Under Delivers
This book is full of plattitudes and short on real solutions one can put into practice in his or her life.
An example, is the advise to "Own your own business," which sounds good on the surface, but what about the 80% of new businesses that fail their first year? And no other direction is given regarding owning one's own business.
More hyperbole and old "country saying" permeate the book. While these may make one "feel good" for a while and could provide some intrinsic motivation, any benefit is short-lived and quickly dies out once the "feel good" mentality wears off.
The book reads like a commercial for the author's seminars and camps. If I could get people to pay me to read advertising for my business rather than me have to pay to advertise, I guess I would be a millionare also. Maybe that is the real genius of the book.
My advise: Skip the book and spend the $25 on a steak dinner.
