After reading BE YOURSELF, I was inspired. The Learn to Lead sheets were extremely helpful, as I hung them around my desk where I could see them everyday. They not only helped me figure out WHAT I wanted to do, but how to be as successful as possible once I made my choice. By following Joe's 8 principles, ...

On July 24, 2013, my plan was to go to a Tony Robbins event. I knew there would be other speakers, but wasn’t familiar with them. That changed when you came on the stage.

I thought the book was terrific. Its about things we all know we should do, but rarely conscious of on a daily basis. I especially liked "Playing in Traffic," "Speaking from your heart" and "Don't be afraid to cry." Nicely written.

I felt so ...

Great book Joe. This just proved to me what I've always said, " You can't change the way people think about you! But only you can change how you think about them" This book has inspired me as a Business Troubelshooter. Cheers, Vince

So I literally just finished the book. And gave myself about 5 minutes before I impulsively decided to post something! Story of my life doing things once they popped into my head. As it turns out I may have had some great ideas in my life and although I tried but failed with my ventures. I did learn one major ...
