Amazon.com Review
If there's anyone qualified to write a self-help book on success, it's Jack Canfield, who's worked his way from scraping by as a teacher to holding a Guinness world record for having seven books simultaneously on The New York Times® Best Sellers list. As a coauthor of the Chicken Soup for the Soul® series, he's sold more than 80 million books, and now lives "in a beautiful California estate" with his days of dining on spaghetti and tomato paste long behind him. "All you have to do is decide what it is you want, believe you deserve it, and practice the principles in this book," he says, and success is yours. His advice is straightforward (examples: "reject rejection" and "surround yourself with successful people"), but rather derivative, with quotes from the likes of JFK, Colin Powell, Aldous Huxley, and fellow motivation author Napoleon Hill.Canfield's definition of success is primarily monetary, and he includes plenty of anecdotes depicting average folks who saved themselves from the brink of bankruptcy after following his principles. He could tone down the braggadocio; readers don't need to know that he's stayed in resorts in Hawaii, Italy, Australia, and Morocco. Despite those gripes, his cheerleader-caliber enthusiasm should benefit anyone looking to improve their lot in life. --Erica Jorgensen Amazon.com Exclusive Content  Jack Canfield, creator of the Chicken Soup for the Soul series, reveals secrets to success with 64 timeless principles in The Success Principles.

 DONT DO THE COACHING October 14, 2009
Andrea Bloome
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The book was great and I thought that it would be good to do the coaching. After an emotional hard sell. I was having some bells and whistles go off, but I thought, roll with it... Like jack says. On the phone I was told that these were jacks personal coaches. Come to find out, the same company does Robert Kiyosaki's "personal coaching". I googled all of my coaches and they had no street cred whatsoever.
It was incredibly disappointing and a waste of time. Not to mention, I felt like a sucker for not trusting my gut and calling them on the carpet throughout the whole process.
Buyer beware. If it sounds too good, it is!!!

Book appears to be a good book with good information, however I am still in the process of reading it therefore my review is inconclusive at this time.
 The best and most complete self help book October 3, 2009
Jaycee (Tampa, FL United States)
Wow, is all I can say. Jack Canfield covers every aspect of self help in this one. His plain speaking style and direct no nonsense advice is the best I have read. I was first saw Canfield in the movie "The Secret". He came across as believable and genuine, so I decided to pursue his other stuff. This is my first book that I have gotten from Canfield and am glad I did. I highly recommend "The Secret" as well.
The Best of the Best! September 19, 2009
Christina Paul (Anamosa, IA USA)
I was introduced to the work of Jack Canfield long after Chicken Soup for the Soul came on the scene. In fact, I was in rather a bit of resistance to Canfield's work because I thought it would be all about warm fuzzies. Not true! This book has some of the most practical advice of really making effective change in life, and not just for adults, but for young people as well. Jack Canfield uses his experiences asan educator, a psychologist and a someone who was mentored by W. Clement Stone to create a book that is phenomenal! I have bought this book as gifts for my son, my bosses, and I would go as far as to say if this book was required reading in school, we would definitely have increased self-esteem, creativity and drive coming out of our schools and into the workfroce. I cannot recommend this book enough. Also, consider getting the Audio Recording as well. You will listen to it over and over again!
A very worth while book.It combines practical steps while developing positive thinking August 18, 2009
Laura E. Jackson
If you have read The Secret, this book takes you further into the real world by taking you from fantasy to reality. It gives you a step by step process to acheive your goals. I highly reccomend it.
