Goals! How To Get Everything You Want Faster Than You Ever Thought Possible Hardcover – January 1, 2010

This is the most important book I have ever read in terms of personal development. I have an MBA from on of the top business schools in the country. Yet, the material in this book is worth ten times the tuition I paid to earn that degree--it's that good!! It was recommended to me by one of my best friends. After listening to the audio CD, I can see why. What Brian Tracy does is so much more than what the title implies. He challenges the reader by asking profoundly introspective questions that dig deep into your personal psyche--especially in Chapter Two. This book literally grabbed me by the throat because (1) it is extremely valuable advice, the kind of wisdom that a father would give to a son or mother to a daughter; and (2) it motivated me to achieve some goals that I had within myself that I thought were impossible. This book is a must-read for anyone who views themselve as a high-achiever. If you are someone who is comfortable with mediocrity, don't read this book. Goals! is the kind of book I wish I had read when I was a teenager in high-school or college. If this book doesn't light a fire within you belly to achieve your fullest potential, then nothing else will. Highly recommended...

If you want to be truly successful, you really must read this book. It will show you how to get everything you want, faster than you ever thought possible. The ideas contained in this book will save you years of hard work in achieving the goals that are the most important to you. Mr Brian Tracy, the author of this book, wrote that if he were given 1 minute to advise people how to achieve their goals very rapidly, his advise will be, "Write down your goals, write plans to achieve them, and work on your plan every single day". Indeed, success is goals, and all else is commnentary. This book is very easy and enjoyable to read. It is fraught by 21 inspiring sounded chapters. Each chapter provides a series of practical, proven steps that individuals can use to be more effective in moving rapidly toward their chosen objectives. The chapters will show you how to build your self-esteem and self-confidence, how to approach every problem or obstacle effectively, how to overcome difficulties, respond to challenges and continue forward toward your goals, no matter what happens. The 3 hours you will spend to read this book will be the best 3 hour investment of your life.

I am a high school teacher, and this is the best book on goals I ever read. I have read and highlighted so many useful points in this book.Be prepared to change the way you think about your life. Be prepared to focus more on the things you want in life versus the things you are wishing for.One idea I found extremely helpful is to write your goals daily. This helps you to hone in on what is really important to your future.

I have never really written my goals, but after reading this book I have started to and I can already see the difference it makes in my discipline and persistence in attaining my desired goals. Whenever I am tempted to go astray, I can visualize my goals on paper and they might as well be etched in stone. Before, I could just delude myself and compromise but not anymore. I would recommend this book to anyone that really wants to succeed in every aspect of life.

I give this book a 4 because I feel that it is more for the outside worker than it is for an indepentpent worker. I found a lot that seemed to be for the worker who has a "boss" than me being my own boss. However, I read the book through, then reread it looking more into it. I did come across things that I feel will help as long as followed through. The tasks are reasonable in doing. Does it seem hard to make a list of things to accomplish today? Right there you have set goals and followed through. There is a lot more in there, it will help you go from daily goals to weekly, monthly and yearly goals. I would recommend that purchasing his book "Eat That Frog!", they go hand in hand. Both books set on my desk and get looked at daily, to make sure I am following through and creating better habits of myself, to make better habits for my sales. Goals!, will get you going, teaching how to go get your sales instead of waiting and hoping for them to just come to you.

One of my most favorite books. Heard Brian Tracy years ago on NPR promoting GOALS.I went out and bought the book. I’ve given it to many people as gift since.Rereading it every few years is a great way to reset your thinking.

Superb. This was an incredible book-on-cd. I was referred to Brian Tracy's work by a trainer in a Personal Training workshop. I quickly began putting his suggestions to work and I have seen a very positive progression towards bigger and better things. Very simple to understand. Simply great, all areas of my life are improving simply by being positive and creating defined goals for myself!! This book/cd DOES NOT DISAPPOINT!

This book was damaged beyond reading, nasty stains on each page I couldn't determine what it was I threw it is the trash.
