A practical book suitable for everyone - I really like this book because I learnt a lot from this book. Although this book is about philosophy, but only a little theory involved. The concept of this book is easy to understand. The main theme of this book is the six steps to the top. Here is the summary of the book:Step 1 Self-image: If you have a positive image, you can do everything well.Step 2 Your relationship with others: The way you see them is the way you treat them.

It was because this book teaches us that we should believe the concept of ¡§I CAN¡¨.

A Success book for those who value old fashioned virtues - I read this book again ",for the first time", (as an old commercial goes) and could not put it down. Zig s no-nonsense, old-fashioned approach to success is timeless! It is a worthwhile book to read for those who want to learn success from the soul outward. Some may consider the style and manner of this book as trite and arcane but in this day and age of guerilla business tactics this book is a still a breath of fresh air. This is one book you will come back to time and time again.
