5 out of 5 stars A Comprehensive Success Masterpiece   July 9, 2008
This comprehensive book is an encyclopedia of success principles unfolded in a logical sequence that will give anyone willing to put in the effort a blueprint for success. Canfield guides you through the 64 principles with plenty of examples, exercises, and real-life success stories that he is so good at telling.

The formula he uses is an effective teaching method. A success principle is presented, then a story about how someone applied the principle, or an example of an application, and then an instruction for applying the principle by the reader.

Many of the ideas I have read before but Canfield puts them altogether in one volume. He credits much of the material to his mentor, W. Clement Stone, as well as his coaches, including Dan Sullivan. And he quotes many famous successful people throughout the book.

Some of the book's principles that really resonate with me are "Take 100% responsibility for your life", "Reject rejection", "Ask for what you want", "Transcend your limiting beliefs", and "Make a 100% commitment".

I think the material in this book is as valuable for the CEO of a big corporation as it is for a mother with a home-based business. Reading and applying the principles is like taking a course in self-development, success fundamentals, team building, money management, and motivational therapy, all rolled into one. My recommendation is to not only read and study the book, but also keep it on hand as a reference book, especially for the times when you feel stuck or challenged. It will pull you through the down times.

And it wouldn't hurt to use this book as a textbook for high-school seniors. If they read this before embarking on their life journey, it would be a lot easier and more fun.





5 out of 5 stars A Lifetime of Wisdom   June 22, 2008
If you're short on time and tend to prefer small books, don't let the size of this book keep you from reading it. Flip through the table of contents and let your inner wisdom help you choose where to start. "The Success Principles" is packed with so many gems. It's like a dozen of the best personal development books in one. Jack Canfield is a master manifestor and so inspiring. Enjoy!

5 out of 5 stars Alot of information!   June 12, 2008
A great source on how to live your life successfully in every aspect whether it be health, wealth or relationships. I agree with the previous reviewer you must read the book he recommends in addition to Living The Secret Everyday: My Secret Workbookwhich also shows you how to get what you want.
