No apologies for including my own book! Although it doesn't use NLP jargon, most of the exercises in the book are NLP-based and it's very much informed by NLP principles.

Thanks to the brilliant designers at Dorling Kindersley, it's also a lot more visually accessible than most NLP books...

Wow! This book is a MUST!
I've been lucky enough to see a review copy of this book and I cannot praise it highly enough.

As someone who has studied with some of the best trainers in the business, and read goal-setting and personal power books from the likes of Anthony Robbins, Brian Tracy, Zig Ziglar and many others, I have to put this book right up there with the best!

Not only is it laid out in a very easy-to-read format, the concepts are explained very simply - easy to pick up for the beginner, but also giving great insights for the more experienced reader of Personal Development material.

Where the book delivers real value is in the practical exercises that are cleverly intermingled with the content. The exercises are constructed so well, I'm sure that everyone who reads it will get tremendous benefit from doing so.

In my opinion, this book breaks new ground in the crucial areas of goal setting - but don't be deceived, this book delivers far more than just helping you to achieve your goals - it's a "bible" to getting better personal results.

I'll be recommending this to my friends, colleagues and business contacts as THE book on goal-setting, and a "must read".

Buy this book today, I promise you won't regret it.

Inspiring & Uplifting
I was privileged to see a preview of this book and was blown away by how powerful it is. Clear, direct, with easy to follow and effective techniques and presented in a way that simply makes sense! It is essential reading for anyone who feels at the mercy of life and circumstances, or is stuck in a rut, as it shows that we all have the means within us to change our circumstances for the better. I have ordered a number of copies for family and friends - that's how impressed I was!
