Small Book With a BIG Impact by momRN 5 Stars
October 26, 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. If you want more info on it before purchasing, I suggest you check out some of the links in the comments section below- you just can't find much bad written about this neat little book.

Motivational interviewing made easy! by Jean Collins (Antigonish, Nova Scotia, Canada) 5 Stars
October 21, 2009
This is a simple, easy to read explanation of motivational interviewing - probably the most effective way to help people change. Using a story format helps not only with remembering the information, but with knowing how to apply it, either for yourself, or for someone else. I'm a psychologist, and I'm trying to use this technique more in my work, so I've read professional books, watched DVDs, talked to colleagues, etc. I can honestly say this little book has probably helped me just as much as any of those. Highly recommended.

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.

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.
