CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 4.0 based on 17 reviews)
| The Sixty Second Motivator by a Senior Citizen couple 5 Stars April 25, 2009 Both my husband and I enjoyed this book a lot. We found it to be a neat, well organized little book written in an easy-to-understand, straight-forward style that is genuinely enjoyable while at the same time providing valuable insights about why we do or do not do things. While we found it quite analytical about key factors concerning motivation, the book didn't make us feel intimidated or "preached at". The tone of the book came across to us as friendly, low-key, very helpful, analytical and a valuable "keeper" to refer to in life's future situations.
One note though. Readers who zip through the book and don't bother to honestly reflect on the questions at the end of the book will probably not "get it" and be disappointed.
| | Small Book With a BIG Impact by momRN 5 Stars April 24, 2009 Being a cardiac rehab nurse and spending a lot of time each day trying to get people to change their lifestyles to create better health, this book caught my eye. After reading it, I found the principles instantly useful for me to use at work. They can help anyone get motivated to get past the barriers that keep them from making changes to improve their health. Additionally, the book is short and to the point which is good for a busy Mom like myself.
| | Save your money by KelleyBee (PA, USA) 1 Stars April 23, 2009 Essentially, this book says you won't change your behavior until the right thing comes along to motivate you. In other words, until you really, really want something, or until you are suffering bad enough, you won't make any real and lasting life changes. Big news, that one! A waste of money.
| | 60 Sec by Big Sarge (USA) 5 Stars April 06, 2009 Good book. Has a nice basic scientific approach to how to get motivated. If you are unfamilar with the process of getting and staying motivated about anything I recommend you read this very short (70p) and informative book.
| | Pamphet at a book price by Paul R. Herholz Jr. (Northern Virginia) 2 Stars March 26, 2009 This really isn't a book. It is 67 pages in a small format with large print and very wide top and bottom margins. The author talks about "secrets" of motivation. There are no secrets here. Anyone who has accomplished anything difficult will not learn anything new. It's OK for what it is but grossly overpriced.
I "kinda" want to learn French but am having a motivation problem with this particular project. The title and the reviews caught my eye - a good example of bad impulse buying.
