| Hi everyone,
Just wanted to know how you keep yourself motivated. I am a great fan of quite a few motivational authors including Napoleon Hill, Louise Hay, Jim Rohn, Brian Tracy, Zig Ziglar, Darren Hardy, Earl Nightingale, Bob Proctor, and many others.
Do you ever read / watch / explore their materials? Personally, one of my passions is how to become more successful and happy in life and how to better manage my time.
Please share your thoughts and tell if you are passionate about any motivationas speakers/authors and any books you recommend.

Wow, this is s great advice, this is indeed a fantastic book by Gary Mack and David Casstevens. Thanks for mentioning the book!
Another one I love is The Art of Mental Training by DC Gonzalez - has so much great wisdom in it in terms of becoming a mental rock and achieving goals regardless of how difficult external circumstances are. The author explains why any person (not just athletes) needs to work on mental toughness and why concentrating only on athletics or physics of achieving something is just half a job done if not less. One of the main ideas in the book is to train your mental abilities by starting to believe in yourself first, then comes confidence, then results whatever you do.
The book personally helped me to deal with a few difficult and sometimes even unreasonable people. Highly recommend both books to anyone to achieve any goals.

I liked Mind Gym and The Slight Edge..... The Slight Edge is probably one of my all time favorite books.
Another great book recommended!
I found The slight edge to be very similar to the Compound Effect by Darren Hardy. Both of these books fall into the same category: success is predictable and is based on small every day choices. No one dies from heart attack immediately after going to fast food, right? But check the stats and you will be shocked what the compound effect of unhealthy eating does with the nation. On the other hand, start making small positive choices like eating vegies more removing just a few calories a day from your diet and the compound effect will hit you like crazy in the other direction: you will become healthy and wealthy. Success in anything can only be achieved through tedious work, getting the momentum going day by day eventually reaping the benefits of the compound effect. We live in the society of immediate gratification which is exactly why many people are not ready to put great effort over a longer period of time on a day to day basis to get the edge.
Amazing recommendation, MS2011, both the Slight Edge and The Compound Effect are absolutely life changing books. |

I'm going to have to check out The Compound Effect!! I really found the Slight Edge to be life changing....My husband and I are working to make it a habit to read 10 pages of a motivational book every day.
What I loved about this book was that change isn't so overwhelming when you tackle it by baby steps. Sometimes that's what holds me back from starting something is that I feel like I have to finish it right then and it must be perfect. What is important is striving for excellance in the small steps along the way.

Location: London Ontario | I read a book a while ago, it was all about sports and envisioning your runs, everything from warming up to running, running thru each scenario etc. Cant remember for the life of me what it was though, there was a term for it..pyscho-something??? I could be completely off the mark but it was an awesome book!
The word is psycho cybernetics

| MS2011, Brian Tracy recommends this method: reading 10 pages on any subject (especially self-development) will give you enormous edge in no time - this is the compound effect in action. Fantastic habit to have for sure.
polorunner, this is a great review, I checked out another one on your website, looking really good.
MC1993, I think you are referring to yet another fantastic book called Psycho-Cybernetics, A New Way to Get More Living Out of Life by Maxwell Maltz who is an expert in the world of improving self-image and his work is still extremely relevant years after he wrote it.
GLP, I have not yet read "With winning in mind", but it's on my radar - must be another great book!
Fantastic recommendations, ideas and thoughts so far, please keep them coming! I am inspired! |

| Here is another great author who can put your mind in the right frame when it comes to achievement of any sort: Brian Tracy (have a look at his biography here for more details - he is amazing). Absolutely incredible author. He has so many books and programs - it's quite overwhelming. My favourite ones are:
1) Eat That Frog (conquering procrastination and accomplishing more)
2) No Excuses (programs you to take full responsibility and take control of any results you have)
3) The miracle of self-discipline (how you can improve your self-discipline to achieve great results)
4) Accelerated Learning Techniques (great for boosting your learning skills)
and many many more - he is incredible, check him out - he is one of my favourits, Brian changed my life completely. If someone read any of his books or listened to any of his programs please share your thoughts.
