I have most definately read this book, and I can say without doubt it is a beautiful read. If you are someone that reads self-help type articles/books it is almost a must. If you are feeling the need for a life hug or a boot up the bum again don’t hesitate. I have had the pleasure of meeting Kurek and, in person as well as in his writing he has this uncanny ability to be talking to me. But here is the thing…. everyone says the same. I think he speaks sense, with passion, with heart and if you were ever to ask some one for advice or support thats the type of person you would ask. Its language is easy, soothing even, but challenging to…this man doesn’t leave you all pept up then… leave. Promise yourself you’ll finish it once you start because it ties all the stuff together the further through you go. Like me, you will keep this book after you have read it, you will revisit it and I’m certain you will recomend it.

Perhaps someone else might be interested in knowing the level of success a Blog must have (RSS readers, traffic, income level, etc.) before publishers start doing that. I know I was. I used to read about all the free stuff that Steve Pavlina gets for review on his Blog but that was when his Blog was already super successful, and I used to wonder if publishers ever send anything to the “little guys”. Now I know, and I like to share that with others just in case they’re thinking about or are already into Blogging.

The other part of your comment implies that I am endorsing the book without reading it. I was very open and honest in the article about the fact that I have not fully read it yet, but even so I can tell you that I would have no hesitation saying it’s a good book. You may not believe in such things, but I strongly believe in my intuition and it’s ability to quickly discern good books from crap. I have read hundreds and hundreds of books on personal development and I can almost without fail pick out a good book with positive energy just by holding it in my hands for a few seconds and maybe flipping through the thing to see the chapter titles and such.

If you’ve ever heard of Marc Allen from New World Media publishing, that is exactly how he “picked” the runaway best selling book “The Power of Now” by Eckhart Tolle. Marc picked up the book and instantly ‘knew’ it was a great book without even reading it. His company published the book over ten years ago, and Marc hasn’t even finished reading the book himself yet. Not because he’s lazy, but because the book is so deep he hasn’t been able to get past a certain page. He talks about it in his audio interviews, available for free on his website.

Sorry if me sharing something I’m excited about offends you, but that’s just who I am and will continue to be. Thank you for sharing your point of view though. I’m sure there might be others who feel the same way, but didn’t say anything.

I’d like to suggest everyone read article A in USA Today. I opened the table of contents and notied that the article appeared on 2 pages. Then I googled the name of the author, and was astonished to discover that the author (insert commentary from publicist here). From the first 2 lines of th article I read, the author’s voice sounded similar to another writer. Everyone, click on this link, perhaps I will get a few pennies from the effort it took me to write this post! Please, more publishers, send me free books – I will endorse your book even without spending time to review the book.

Best of all, when I held the newspaper in my hand, the positive vibe that flowed from the article into my head was incredible!
