Customer Reviews

Good basic goal getting book

What Wade Cook teaches in this short, compact book is very similiar to one of the top success trainers in the world. It comes down to your core desires and "to be about it." Don't talk about it. Don't just set goals. Be a goal getter, not just a goal setter. Different but effective.

Good things come in small packages...

This is a short, compact book that offers more inspiration than specific information, but it's title suggests that. It's not the usual investment guide by Wade Cook, the former Taxi driver turned stock mogul, it's a book that tries to impart that impetus for acting on your goals instead of just planning them. On that theme, it's excellent!The quotes throughout are great and the book itself makes clear just how precious this commodity we call time really is. Very well worth the read!

Still a good read

Occasionally, when I am waiting for my new batch of books to come in, I'll reread an older one.Don't set Goals "The old Way" is a compact, but value packed book. Reminds me of Brian Tracy's excellent books "Eat that Frog" and "Be A Sales Superstar" which are also compact in size but deliver a powerful message.Wade Cook is one of the top leaders of our time. The concepts revealed here by Wade are urgently needed in a time of financial chaos. Don't judge this book by it's size. It's a winner.

Good Book

Don't set Goals: The Old Way is one of those books like As A Man Thinketh and Richest Man in Bablyon that is small in size but big on content. I like this book and highly recomend it to anyone who wants to be Goal Getter, and not just a Goal Setter.

EXCELLENT

Since 1974, I have purchased just about every motivational book and tape program available in my desire for maximum achievement. Wade Cook's 'DON'T SET GOALS" is without a doubt one of the very best. Too many other books out there focus on "affirmations", "swishes" "anchors" or subliminal suggestions. Wade Cook like Jim Rohn, teaches just be about it! Just do it! If you want to be rich, don't try to 'SWISH YOURSELF' into being rich do what rich people do. I also highly recommend Jim Rohn's book "7 keys to wealth & happiness" and tape program, "The Art of Exceptional Living" also Wade Cook's "Business buy the Bible" and of course THE BIBLE as the best personal development books out there
