Customer Reviews

Great book and I recommend his tapes as well.

I saw Charlie "Tremendous" Jones live and in person back in 1978 in Harrisburg, Pa. when the old PMA rallies were going strong. He appeared along with Dr. Peale. What impresses me about Jones is that he is funny, charismatic but has a powerful message too. Life is Tremendous is another one of those small books that sometimes gets overlooked because of it's small size. This book is only 105 pages and can easily be read in one evening or even in less than an hour. But it should be read over and over. It is outstanding. Charlie will get you laughing and provide a very powerful message. To really appreciate Charlie Jones, listen to one of his cd's or audio cassette tapes. He will get you rolling and you will come away with ideas you never thought of before. One of my favorite quotes from Charlie is: "It's not how hard you fall, but how high you can bounce back from adversity that counts." AND... "All leaders are readers." Want to be good leader? Then become a good reader.

Review

¡§Life is Tremendous¡¨ is like a guide for everyone¡¦s life. It guides readers to find out the meaning of life, and how to become good leaders and successors. The author focuses on leading readers to be optimistic and enthusiastic to their lives by building up a positive attitude and a fine personality, since he believes enthusiasm makes the difference. It gave us a clear picture of how to build up an active attitude, which helps us to be a positive person. Besides, this book also told us how to face eleven common problems in our daily life, such as nervous, difficulties, fear, etc. And readers will discover that, the author always told us to rely on God, and leave our problems and difficulties to God. Many people may not agree that life is tremendous. But I am sure that, after reading this book, you will change your mind. As it gave me lots of constructive opinion for my life. The most impressed idea from the author is that if I believe, then I can do it. After reading this book, when I handle a task that I think I may not able to complete, I told myself I believe that I can do it, then I did it with a good result. What I think is that, it is confidence. No matter what happens, if you have confident, then you can do it. Besides, he told us we have to get excited about our work. I think it is true that living is not doing what we like to do; it is doing what we have to do. For myself, I will feel boredom for the studies, but when I think of the reasons of studying, which is aimed at helping me to gain more knowledge and broaden the experience of my life, then I will become energetic and excited about my studies again. On the other hand, the author reminded me ¡§production to perfect¡¨ is very important. Although I have many planning in my mind, however, if I do not start to do, I will never succeed. Apart from having a flexible planning for myself, implementing what I have planned is critical to perfect. There are some areas related to religion in this book. As a Christian, this book reminds me to rely on our God. Very often, when I was busying with my work, I will forget my beloved God, I will just rely on myself and forget my power is from our God. But this book reminds me that I can hand-over all my problems to our God, and I will become peaceful. This book will lead you to think more deeply about your lives, and you will find out many useful perspectives and suggestions to improve your life quality. If you want to have a happy, healthy and productive life, this is a book which highly recommend to you. Written By Ng Shuk Yee Shirley (City University of Hong Kong - Marketing Department)

TREMENDOUS BOOK!!!

I've read just about every self-improvement book I can get my hands on. This is one of my faves. I have tried in vain to get my 15 year old son to read it. Anyone, young or old must read this book. I loved it.

Charlie Jones Really IS Tremedous!

Every person has key decisions to make in his life. Charlie not only tells us what they are, but he also shows us how to keep life in perspective. This book is a tremendous testimony to the person that shares it so vibrantly in word and in deed. Charlie Jones will light a fire under your attitude and perspective time and time again.

A must for every Sales Professional who wants to succeed.

I have been reading & re-reading this book for YEARS, ever since it first came out. It's a MUST for every person who has to SELL in their careers. I insist all my sales staff read it and use the principles for success. WONDERFUL reading.
