Possibly the best self improvement book ever

15 years ago

I read his "Street Kids Guide To Success" a few years back, and it was certainly a good common sense approach to success.

I've never heard of this one but will look out for it. Thanks.

Would you care to outline the basic premise?

I am always leery to picking up new books that have self created terminology. I am not saying that this is the case with "The Answer" but I personally have never heard of this outside of John Assaraf.

You mean like NLP? Or maybe tony robbins NAC? Now we have NRP, lol.

All sounds the same to me... with a different branding/positing strategy.

The Answer was just what I needed to read this week. I have been wanting to meditate for quite some time, and the meditation/visualization instructions were exactly what I needed. I've been doing a lot of the exercises in this book, and already have seen huge results in the clarity of my thinking and my productivity. I'm glad other people are enjoying this book as well.

I remember reading book about brain Alpha waves and getting so excited about it's ability to solve world's problems so I pitched it to everyone who bothered to listen.
Looking back I see it was a mistake from my side.
My point is that we often tend to give best advice from our personal subjective past experiences which may (or more often not at all) applicable to other people's situations and levels.

Hope it explains. I mean no offence to anyone.

Aren't self help books just for the feeble minded? What is the underlying principle in "the answer", is it basically just *'you can do anything you want to' *'here's some motivation' *'now get to work!' I'm always under the impression that these books just tell you what you already know and that by buying them and reading them you're just excusing yourself for yet more procrastination. What do you guys think, is there more to it than that?

Well, while I do have my own trouble with putting things off until a deadline forces me to complete them, I will say the following:

I grew up with a logger father and a stay at home mom. She was the daughter of a chicken farmer. When she was little it was her and her 1 brother and 4 sisters job to crawl under the chicken houses and club rats and mice. I kid you not. On the day I got married she looked at me and my husband and said, "Now you kids will find out life is no longer fun."

Until I watched "The Secret" and started reading books like this, I thought life was just something that "happened" to you. Some got lucky or born into money, the rest of us just toil along and do the best we can.

The thought that I actually can control how my life turns out was incredibly powerful for me. The self-help/business books keep introducing me to ways of looking at the world that I have never, ever been exposed to before.

So for me, I find reading these books helps me expand my thinking and come up with new ideas. And I get to put off writing some articles for a while.

Thanks

Okay, now the hair is standing up on my arms. That book has been in my living room for probably a year. I have had a really hard time getting past the first few pages for some reason. I've found all sorts of excuses for not trying to read it.

Now I'll give it one more try.

Valorie, same thing happened to me. The book stood on my bookshelf for a long time. So I bought the audiobook version on cassette and that whisked me through the basic principles in about an hour or so. You can pick up a used copy for $3 or $4:

No not at all. To reach optimum strength and performance, the mind has to be trained just like the body does. You have to deliberately and consciously mold it and sculpt it into what you want it to be, so it will do what you want it to do.

Self help books are no more for the feeble minded than personal trainers and sports coaches are for the feeble bodied. If you want to get stronger, mentally or physically, the more informed and intelligent you are in your 'work out' processes, the better your results will be. Good quality advice from those with genuine knowledge is invaluable.

If anything, it is often the people with the most natural mental strength that have the courage to truly self analyze, and set about deliberately improving their ability to control and direct their own mind.

I liked Power of Intention by Wayne Dyer. One thing that struck out at me in his book is that he pointed out "Discipline" was the key to achieving your goals. It was a good read.

Reading motivational books is like a passion to me. The term used by John Assaraf "the neural reconditioning process" is same with which most of us are quite familliar as NLP.

Do some research on NLP and you will get much more than your imagination.

The plot involves a love triangle between the characters portrayed by Reynolds, Kristofferson and Clayburgh.
