The 10 qualities of a total winner

Although there are many authors who promote personal development, few have the credentials that Dr. Denis Waitley has. And few, if any, disclose the the techniques o f the most highly successful people in the world, from top executives, Olympic athletes, POW's and scientists. Dr. Waitley shows us that total success is an ongoing process that is cultivated, nourished and shared.Another unique quality about Denis Waitley is that he truly cares about you. He wants you to win at life and The Psychology of Winning will show you exactly how to win in life. Great book. One that needs to be read again and again.

"A Voice Many Seek but Few Ever Hear"

I first came across the works of Denis Waitley in late 1996, as I began my first steps towards entrepreneurship. It was via audio tape, which contained most if not all of the contents of this book, nonetheless, here was a complete stranger telling Me: I could succeed, I could achieve, I could do things - encouragement I was not getting from my immediate family, my peers, my "friends" at that time.Someone once said: You will become like the information you input into your mind and the people you associate with. If that's the truth, then, I am indeed one step closer to where I wish to be in my life, and YOU can be there, too.

Truly Amazing- A Must Have!

Waitley presents material in an easy to read fashion. His points are excellent, and his book is indeed worthy of being on every individual's book shelf. Whether you have experienced anxiety, depression, low self esteem, negative thoughts, relationship problems, or difficulty in accepting the simplest of compliments--this book is for you. This author helps readers delve into our interpretations and live more functionally by thinking more rationally. Yes-- this is the time to smell the roses. It's not what we don't have--but rather what we do have! I recommend this book without hesitation, as being undoubtedly the best book I have ever read.

It contains nothing but the essense

I usually have the habit of highlighting books while reading, but i've never underlined a single letter in this book. Why? because every sentence is like a quote, i've read it 3 times... and every time i read it, i found something new. Buy it!!!

The Tapes Changed my Life!

The Psychology of Winning cassettes are wonderful! I listened to them many times over the period of a couple of years and overtime, I found I had developed into a more confident person. I expected positive outcomes and that is exactly what I achieved. I am a different person in many ways. I approach life differently and others respond to me differently. I recommend these tapes to everyone who desires to break out of the self-defeating pattern they may have developed in their approach to life. These tapes are the BEST
