I read a book today by Robin Sharma called "The Greatness Guide". If you're looking for something to help you get motivated, organized, and more successful it's a great resource. I realized later though that I had actually read the exact same book at least three times before!
I guess it wasn't the exact same book, they had different titles, authors, and slightly different wording, but essentially they were all exactly the same.
They all recommended prioritizing.
They all recommended keeping a journal.
They all recommended excercise and meditation.
They all recommended visualizing your goals.
They all recommended networking and all gave the same advice on how to go about it.
Books on success all seem to be saying the same things. I've yet to find a book that is really innovative on the topic of becoming more successful.
Bummer.
Good news is now I know that that type of book is rarely worth the half hour it takes me to read them.
Also now I know that if you want to improve your life in that area all you have to do is read one really complete book of this type.
Imagine getting all the wisdom that CEOs get from thousands of dollars of personal coaching from just a few hours of reading and feeling confident that you've gotten everything you need to level the playing field between you and them.
Don't trust me to be able to lead you in the right direction. At least not until you've read Jack Canfield's book "Success Principles". This is the most complete book in this genre I've found so far. It covers all the essentials and gives some really great new ideas.
