Start thinking your way to success!

High Performance Thinking is an excellent source for anyone who wants to start using their thoughts to create success in any area of their life. It is was so easy to read, I felt as if Dr. Davis was speaking to me in a casual conversation. If you want to think your way to success, this is the book for you!

Highly motivational and easy to apply

Dr. Davis provides a self improvement guide that "normal" people can actually use to experience immediate results. An extrememly friendly read that is full of artistic visualization which applies to us all and helps us to clearly understand why we are who we are. I have read many self improvement and "how to" type books. High Performance Thinking is by far the very best. Read it for both your professional and personal life. I read the entire book in one setting (a first in my 47 years on this Earth).

WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL!

What a WONDERFUL book! I have been fortunate to have heard Dr. Gayle Davis speek a number of times and reading this book brought back ALL the great ideas that she shared through the talks. After reading the book from cover to cover I now use it as a daily thought book -- I jsut open it up to whatever page it happens to open to and think about what is on those pages. It is a GREAT way to start the day off on a positive track! This book is a MUST READ for everyone in all professions and ages... Thanks Dr. Davis for sharing your wisdom through the written word!

helps eliminate "bad" thinking

This book is an excellent tool for training ourselves that positive thinking and positive visualization are the keys to any successful enterprise.I recommend it to all athletes, business people, or anyone else that would like to improve their performance through self improvement.

"High Performance Thinking" is a high-powered gem

Dr. Gayle Davis has written a terrific book that is both compelling and practical. She outlines the factors that control our behavioral responses to situations and describes ways to modify responses that are no longer effective in order to achieve successful performance in all aspects of life. Dr. Davis' engaging writing style and numerous concrete examples convey the "how to's" of "high performance thinking" so that they can be immediately translated into everday life. As I read the book I found myself envisioning how to put her principles into practice in my professional and personal life. And through the application of the book's techniques I have seen major improvements in those aspects of my life. I highly recommend this book!
