Adjust your attitude and Take Action !!! July 13, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book is all about the way you think. Money, actions that you take, people that you hang around with are all discussed. It's not one of those "If you dream or constantly think about it then it will happen" type of books. I started putting into practice some of the ideas Dan discusses even before I finished the book and immediately saw results. A lot of the ideas I had known in the back of my mind but reading them coaxed me into taking action on them and not just thinking about them. You know a book is good when it helps you before you get through reading it. Some of the highlights are * Don't wait till you get all your ducks in a row..start NOW, you can make course corrections as you progress and learn. *Make sure you do at least one thing a day to keep the pipeline of future income filled. * Don't just think in terms of daily transactions but also the value of future business. * Get rid of negative people that hang around you. Dan gives them a great label of Wealth Blockers. * Hope is not a strategy... is this not one of the truest things that you have ever heard and yet we all know people that live with no real plans of how to achieve success. I could go on but if you combine this book with No B.S. Time Management for Entrepreneurs (No B.S. Series) you will have a one-two punch that will put you miles ahead of the competition. All of Dan's no B.S, books are not of the same level of quality, but I think this is the best one of the bunch. If you have read this far then you need to take action. Buy this book along with Dan's Time Management and put what they teach into practice. Kennedy's Time Management will show you how to get rid of the Time Vampires so that you can put the business advice he dispenses in this book to use. Just knowing stuff is useless unless you put it to use. There is a phrase that NLP people will recognize called congruence... your actions and thoughts must be aligned to produce results. By reading the various reviews you have shown that you are interested in achieving success as an entrepreneur. Now you must make your actions match your thoughts and get the info that is contained in this book. Its cost is much less than a single night out and it will alter the way you act and think for the rest of your life. that's a pretty good bargain by any measure.
This is the Bible of No B.S. Books July 4, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Read the book cover to cover on a recent flight to Las Vegas.
Every word rings true. For readers who are sick of reading about "being passionate" about your business, and all of the other "feel good" books on the shelves right now, this is a must read.
I would go so far as to say that there is not 1 word in this book that is not on point. No fluff, no filler.
Just as the title states... No B.S.
Beyond the Myth of Attraction March 19, 2007 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
Let's get the basics out of the way. (1) This book is full of self-promotion; (2) Kennedy can be offensive, irritating and arrogant;(3) Kennedy has helped create more than 100 millionaires and knows whereof he speaks in terms of wealth creation; (4)some or all of this information can be found in other books--but you just don't find it condensed and targeted like this. There is a lot of hype out there today about "focusing on a goal" and it somehow magically will be drawn to you. Kennedy says that defining and focusing on a goal is critical, but if you want to attract wealth into your life, you must consider your beliefs about wealth, your strategies to bring wealth into your life and your behaviors in implementing those strategies. So, think beliefs, behaviors and strategies. Most of us have unconscious beliefs about money (it is limited, it has to be hard earned) that get in our way of making it, and most of us don't have behavior congruent with our desire to attract wealth--that is, congruent with the behavior of those who have already attracted wealth. The book is really only 167 pages--26 "Wealth Magnets."(That's really all you need to read and re-read.) The rest is info from successful entrepreneurs and Kennedy's recommended resources. Read it or not, Kennedy will say he doesn't care. He has put the information into the universe and now its up to you. Thirteen bucks and a couple hours of your time might show you something you don't know. To be honest, Kennedy frequently ticks me off with his over the top no BS attitude, but you cannot argue with his results--or his comprehensive, no nonsense approach to wealth attraction. One final thought. The book is only 13 bucks because it is partially a marketing mechanism--he wants you as a customer so the book is cheap knowing the long term value of anyone who joins his Kennedy Inner Circle. But that is a marketing lesson and a wealth creation strategy, isn't it?
Excelent January 4, 2007 3 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is a book that set apart from others, no sweet talk, just the things you need to remember to keep growing.
Very honest and smart book on money-producing personal qualities December 15, 2006 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
This book is really no b.s. Kennedy tells it like it is, attacks popular self-help myths and gives a simple but powerfull advice on how to stop "wealth inhibition" (he brilliantly shows that almost everybody soffers from it).
I've read the book 3 times and now my view on the world is different and I see a lot of opportunities of easily multiplying my already prosperous business that I didn't see before.
One of the most useful chapter for me was about "domino opportunity" (you'll see, it gives a whole new perspective on your business or career strategy).
Yes, there's a whole section of advertising from Dan's friends in this book, but I don't really see a problem here. I didn't read it and you can read, if you are interested, or skip it just like me.
In short: read it, if you like Donald Trump Books, Randy Gage books, Ayn Rand books. It is really a rare kind of book in the market full of unrealistic books making success look too romantic OR too hard-work, will power and discipline based.
Read if you want truth, even it is not very popular.
