Breaking THROUGH to a life that ROX. Beyond "self help"

I just finished reading Larry Olsen's book for the second time. I immediately picked it up and started thumbing through it again. Why? It is, without a doubt, one of the best books I've read. If you visit any bookstore you will find a vast array of self-help, self-improvement, and self-discovery books. There are dozens of authors, life coaches, and gurus ready to promote their "quick fix" for your life. There methods vary but the message is fundamentally the same. "Work this program, as described in this book, and be successful," (Insert any author's name here). Larry Olsen's book is different. It is not about practicing the "Olsen philosophy," although it helps. It is not about "buying into the method," although it is effective. Larry Olsen has simply written a concise and effective guide into tapping personal power and overcoming personal barriers. He realizes the ability to succeed lies within everyone. He simply puts out a few, very simple, ways it can be tapped. He recognizes the resources that already exist in a person and has created an incredibly user-friendly and adaptable guide to uncovering them. Larry Olsen's book helped me realize what worked for me. Amazingly enough, the things he said in his book were entirely accurate. I mentioned earlier that there are a variety of self-help, self-discovery, and self-improvement books available. I've even read a few. None of them had much impact on me. The language was too syrupy, the claims too over-inflated, the language too preachy. I didn't find the author accessible to me, a real person. Larry Olsen reaches across the pages of his book with a real voice; like he is speaking to the reader across the table. He comes across as a real person, reaping real benefits. He knows how to define success in human terms, from a "been there done that," perspective. I started reading Larry Olsen's book at the beginning of a career change. As I move through this new adventure in my life, I find myself relying on his words about attitude, relating to my experiences, and outlook. His book is a journey not of discovery but of rediscovery; the rediscovery of our own individual potential. This book has allowed me to develop my own business. I have grown my business by over 300% since putting these techniques and, more importantly, this attitude to work for me. I'm at a point where I do not wish to be any busier but I know I could increase my business by another 300% and 300% after that. Just as significantly, I've done it without the fear, tension, and frustration I used to experience. When life happens, and things are not going according to plan, I find that I am open to the solution. Individuals reading the books might want to consider it a springboard to working with Larry himself. Organizations should pick up several copies, and give Larry Olsen a call.

Life Changing

Larry's book is life changing. If you only read the first 20 pages you'll see how to make better choices in your life. If read the whole book, you'll learn how to live more deliberately and make every day matter.

Brilliant

The author's ability to take the complex and make it simple...AND applicable, is remarkable. Without question, his idea's will increase efficiencies and maximize productivity within my professional AND personal life.

Skip Covey, Demmings, Robbins et.al.

Learn how your brain works! Learn why what you know is holding you back much more than what you don't know. I've read all of Covey, all of Demmings and more and this book is the absolute break through for my employees and believe it or not, customers. I highly recommend this book and the resulting courses you can take through the Larry Olsen company to do EXACTLY WHAT IT PROMISES - Do twice the work in half the time having twice the fun.
