Comment: It's so easy to read and is a wonderful gift for yourself and everyone you know! Enlightening. I read it over and over. You learn so much about Tony Robbins and you'll never forget what makes him so dynamic. I've never been to one of his seminars or bought any of his other products.. Just this little book. You just fall in love with his spirit. And this is all you will need.

Summary: Simply powerful!

Comment:
In a straight-forward approach with his contagious enthusiasm and lots of real life examples, Anthony Robbins's "Notes from a Friend: A Quick and Simple Guide to Taking Control of Your Life" shows his readers that we can change our life literally in a matter of moments, by tapping into the power that's inside each of us right now.
What if "unleash the power within us" is what we need to be successful? It sounds too simple, but many of us including myself, have no idea how powerful we truly are. This book effectively showed us that we can shape our destiny by shifting focus on solutions, instead of problems. Having a clear vision of what we want, with a sense of flexibility in pursuing our goals, and continuing to take massive, positive, constructive actions, we can empower and enrich our lives and others' lives around us in all aspects!
A concept from this book particularly caught my eyes; "the past doesn't matter. Whatever hasn't worked in the past has nothing to do with what you'll do today. What you do right now is what will shape your destiny." It reminded me of my favorite authors; Ariel and Shya Kane and their books Being Here: Modern Day Tales of Enlightenment and Working on Yourself Doesn't Work: A Book About Instantaneous Transformation. The Kanes presented the idea of "Living in the moments", showing "the current moment is all we have and living in the moment is all it takes to have our life transformed." It is so freeing to be able to let go of all the "I should have done this" and know that what happened in the past is irrelevant to now and now is all we have! We have absolutely everything we need right now to create our lives.
These three authors are magical. I highly recommend them to anyone that wants to have a magical life and to discover his and her brilliance!

Summary: An Absolute Oasis
Date: 2007-09-06 -
Comment: I realize referring to any book as an "oasis" sounds silly, but this particular book qualifies.
I bought my first self-help book forty-eight years ago, when I was still in grade school. In college I first minored in philosophy, and then in psychology. I've read everything from classic self-help psych books to the most outrageous metaphysical self-improvement techniques. Oh, I've read and tried it all.
I discovered Tony Robbins over twenty years ago, and really liked him. He seemed practical and made sense. After going through the Personal Power tape set three times, I lost track of Tony and got involved in other techniques. Last month I stumbled across his latest -- The Edge. While waiting for the CD set to be delivered, I read this book.
It's terrific. "Notes From A Friend" is the Cliff's Notes of Tony Robbins' philosophy, and is presented with his contageous enthusiam. It's a quick read (about an hour), but is packed with good advice and humor.
Of all I've devoured over the past forty-some years, Tony Robbins' material and the Life 101 series (now out of print) are simply the best. Like wise old friends.

Summary: Inspirational
Date: 2007-05-15 -
Comment: This little book is all you need to change your life. It only has a small amount of the material from his other books but it is all you really need to get started. Keep it in the bathroom so everytime you sit down you can read a chapter. It is written so that anyone can understand and apply the principles. Next to the BIBLE it is the most valued book in my household.
