Summary: One of Many Great Denis Waitley Books!
Date: 2008-01-06 - 
Comment: When I was in High School in the 80s, the school's guidance counselor loaned me a copy of Seeds of Greatness thinking it was a book I'd enjoy and learn from. He was so right! This was the first of Denis Waitley's books that I read, and I enjoyed it so much, and believed in his lessons that I have been reading his books and listening to his audio and video programs ever since. I am very thankful that I read this book and learned of the wonderful lessons Denis Waitley shares.
The ten seeds Waitley shares include Self-Esteem, Creativity, Responsibility, Wisdom, Purpose, Communication, Faith, Adaptability, Perseverance, and Perspective. While the book was written in 1983, these seeds are just as important today. Maybe even more so the way some of the world seems to be turning.
The simple truths that Waitley shares, if listened to and followed, will help anyone achieve greater success. Waitley has shared these basic principles of success with millions over the years and they are full of ageless wisdom that will help you too. I strongly endorse all of Waitley's works and this one holds a special place because it was the first of his that I read, and the book that led me to learn and apply his wisdom which has helped me succeed.

Comment: This is probably Dennis Waitley's best work in the self-help genre.
He attributes greatness to having ten "seeds" in abundance. These seeds are essential, according to Waitley, and no one has ever gotten far in life without them. Some of the seeds are self-esteem, creativity, respect, and purpose. He provides a reasonable-length chapter on each seed, and tells why it contributes to greatness. With self-deprecating humor, and entertaining stories and illustrations to further enlighten and thrill the reader, Waitley makes a compelling case for not ever having to buy another self-help book. Any one who wants to become successful and happy would greatly profit from this inspirational read.
