Description: If there's anyone qualified to write a self-help book on success, it's Jack Canfield, who's worked his way from scraping by as a teacher to holding a Guinness world record for having seven books simultaneously on The New York Times® Best Sellers list.

As a coauthor of the Chicken Soup for the Soul® series, he's sold more than 80 million books, and now lives "in a beautiful California estate" with his days of dining on spaghetti and tomato paste long behind him. "All you have to do is decide what it is you want, believe you deserve it, and practice the principles in this book," he says, and success is yours.

His advice is straightforward (examples: "reject rejection" and "surround yourself with successful people"), but rather derivative, with quotes from the likes of JFK, Colin Powell, Aldous Huxley, and fellow motivation author Napoleon Hill.Canfield's definition of success is primarily monetary, and he includes plenty of anecdotes depicting average folks who saved themselves from the brink of bankruptcy after following his principles. He could tone down the braggadocio; readers don't need to know that he's stayed in resorts in Hawaii, Italy, Australia, and Morocco. Despite those gripes, his cheerleader-caliber enthusiasm should benefit anyone looking to improve their lot in life. --Erica Jorgensen

Review Summary: Great Book Date: 2009-01-08
 
Details: The Success Principles: How to Get from Where You Are to Where You Want to Be
by Jack Canfield who just happens to be coauthor of Chicken Soup for the Soul teachers you how to "reject rejection" and "surround yourself with successful people." There are approximately about 64 other success principles in the book that will work when applied. Other techniques are positive-thinking exercises and visualizations. It mostly deals with monetary gain.
If you are interested in spiritual gain the hope and faith that God and Jesus can only bring in this day and age, I suggest you read a great book entitled "The Enlightenment, What God Told Me After One Million Prayers: A Message for Everyone," by John H. Eagan. It brought me to tears. It's great and deals with Jesus' Passion. I think if you liked Dyer's book you will love this book too.
 
Review Summary: A fantastic book in these hard times! Date: 2008-12-19
 
Details: Our 25-year-old daughter, who just graduated from college in Dec, got this book from her grandmother. She has been reading it cover-to-cover and loves it. Even her friends are borrowing it from her. As a recent December graduate in these hard economic times -- it has been a real boost to her. Very motivational and inspiring! I hear excerpts from it from her daily!

I haven't read it yet myself, and was actually on the Amazon website to order a copy for ME. Thought I'd right the review (based on my daughter's review) while I was here. Also plan on buying the teen version for a grandchild.
 
Review Summary: Read It Over and Over Again. Date: 2008-12-13
 
Details: A dear friend of mine gave me this book for Christmas last year. I value his opinion, but had told myself just the day before as I looked at my nightstand, "The last thing I need is another self-help book." Well, I was wrong. This is an amazing book. I read it through once. Then I went back and started working the exercises. Then I started reading a chapter each morning to motivate me. I've never read "The Secret," but from my understanding, this is "The Secret" with a business slant. The Success Principles is a compilation of the best parts of self-help, motivational, and good business practices books. I have referred the book to many people and have personally bought six copies to give to friends.
 
Review Summary: Great self-help book Date: 2008-12-12
 
Details: This book is easy to read and laid out in away that is easy to make use of the information. The ideas are great, with lots of real life examples. I also listened to the version on CD and that is also a great way to digest the information. But I recommend reading it too, because it was exercises throughout the book to examine how the principles can work in your own life. I wish everyone used these principles in their lives. The world would be a better place!
 
Review Summary: Excellent!!!! Date: 2008-12-05
