Expect Miracles: The Missing Secret to Astounding Success (Your Coach in a Box)



Expect Miracles: The Missing Secret to Astounding Success (Your Coach in a Box)
Joe Vitale | 2009-07-01 00:00:00 | Your Coach In A Box | 0 | Motivational
Have you ever wondered why guru advice doesn't work for you? How can you possibly expect miracles in your life when you can't even get through the day?

For most of Vitale's career, he's helped people understand how to improve their lives and live their dreams. During that time, he's also encountered many people who are convinced that it won't work and that all those great and wonderful things that happen to others will never happen for them.

The world of self development seems inundated with the idea that positive thoughts will change your life. While that is part of the solution, it is only one part. Vitale believes that positive expectation coupled with action is the real key. A person can try to convince himself that he is happy, but if his mind is filled with counter intentions and self limiting beliefs that tell him otherwise, he will never make any progress. The only way to truly live one's dreams is to clear away those counter intentions and take total responsibility for one's own happiness. This audio book will teach the listener :

· How his own thoughts and experiences create negative self talk

· How to bring himself to conscious awareness and affect change

· How to be grateful for all the experiences in his life and use them for good

· That we have the power to choose how we view the circumstances in our lives

· What one tells oneself versus the reality of what is

· How to live and be present in life rather than living in the past or future.

This audio book presents the steps that can help the listener find his own inner miracle and will teach him how to expect miracles in his life each and every day.

This audio program has nothing new to offer. It is very reptitous. Joe Vitale mentions "peeling the onion" more times than I can count, as if this is some new, enlightening terminology.



Additionally, the CD is filled with testimonial after testimonial, which are merely people who are promoting their own websites and products. Throw in some rhetoric, add a boat load of self-indulgent, self-promoting testimonials, and you truly must Expect A Miracle for this CD to be worth listening to.

Second Thoughts is a collection of 100 essays reflecting celebrated broadcaster Mort Crim's conclusions about life after 35 years of covering world events. His daily radio series, from which he has gathered these writings, cuts through the gloomy clouds created by media fascination with the bad, the bizarre and the ugly.

Second Thoughts is about solutions, triumphs and faith. Its messages are crisp, cogent daily reminders that hope is not only reasonable, but the only rational basis upon which to build a life - or a society. Readers will find security and inspiration within these pages and realize that each one of us makes a difference in the world.


Reviews
I grew up watching Mort Crim on Detroit local news channel 4, and always admired him. To be honest, I had a small crush on him. How could I not, considering how charismatic, articulate and funny he is! Despite his retirement from broadcast news, Crim forged on with a radio show, then published a delightful column called "Second Thoughts" in the Detroit Free Press. This marvelous book is a compilation of the very best of those columns, and it's a must-have for anyone who prefers their wisdom folksy, straightforward - and heartfelt.
Reviews

Don't Worry, Make Money: Spiritual and Practical Ways to Create Abundance and More Fun in Your Life (Don't Sweat the Small Stuff Series)



Don't Worry, Make Money: Spiritual and Practical Ways to Create Abundance and More Fun in Your Life (Don't Sweat the Small Stuff Series)
Richard Carlson | 1900-01-01 00:00:00 | Hyperion Books | 223 | Motivational
From the bestselling coauthor of Handbook for the Soul and Don't Sweat the Small Stuff comes a collection of 100 short essays that feature brilliant strategies for achieving financial success by giving up stress, worry, anger, and fear.
Reviews
When an author writes a book about making money and his comments about investing in the stock market are conspicuously outdated, you'd think he'd consider it incumbent on himself to publish an updated version of the book to compensate for it--if, that is, it's important enough to potentially mislead (at least the most gullible of) his readers into behaving, based on his advice, in a financially reckless manner. Such is the case with Carlson's book, which contains a section called "Don't Worry About the Market--Invest in It," that begins with the following words:



"I believe that one of the closest things to a worry-free, wealth-building strategy is to invest, long term, in the stock market, preferably through your company 401K or, if you're self-employed, your SEP. Why? Because historically, to profit from this simple, well-known strategy, it doesn't matter in the short term if the market is going up or down. You win either way. There is absolutely nothing to worry about."



Carlson's book, it should be noted, was published in 1999, before the advent of what Toni Turner, in her book _Short-Term Trading in the New Stock Market," calls the "delicious volatility" that has become the rule rather than the exception in the financial markets since the turn of the millennium.



To continue publishing a book that includes the sentence "There is absolutely nothing to worry about" with respect to the buy-and-hold investment strategy is, I believe, highly irresponsible. At the very least Carlson should offer a free copy of his book to those who can prove, through documentary evidence of the depletion of their brokerage accounts, that they went broke taking his investment advice to heart.



I have nothing against Carlson's "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff" attitude toward life (although it's easy to claim that "it's all small stuff" when the books you write that claim such things are what prevent you from having to worry about the sorts of financial problems the mere mortals who buy them end up worrying about), nor about this book for the most part (hence the three stars), but if he's going to branch out into areas outside of his expertise--and in particular investing--perhaps he should hire a professional trader and/or investor to oversee his financial advice and make sure historical conditions haven't rendered it obsolete.




Reviews

* I have more fun in life now as I manage to change my thinking of making money, thanks to the tips given in this book.
Reviews
I don't own a business but the tips in here are "life tips" not necessarily "money" tips. A great book with some wonderful "life" advise.
Reviews
I bought my copy in an used bookshop in Surfers Paradise, Australia.. decided to take back home because of the honest, down to earth advice that some pages exhibit.



I have forund it to be valuable as frequent reading, one chapter at a time and in a random order.. its my opinion the book will be much more valuable if you have already started your process of committment to making money. By that, I mean your inner process, its the part of thinking that creates the path to action (that you must take).



Do it frequently, there is seldom time to talk to a friend who can advice you like this book.
Reviews
I don't think I finished reading this book. It seemed like the same ol' same ol' chicken soup stuff. I found nothing new in the half of it that I read.
