This is an amazing motivational quote book. I manage over 100 employees and I do public speaking ever week. I use the quotes in this book to rally the troops and as a motivational speaker I always throw in a few quotes from Mr. Vilord's book. It truely is motivational.

A great way to start the day off on a positve note is to open up the book, read a quote or two, and then go conquer the world!!!

I wanted to like this book. It's a great size for carrying around to dip into. However, I'd say about a third, or maybe more, I haven't counted, are anonymous. Here's an example: "Life is filled with possibilities" p31. Now I don't know about you, but I'd hardly class that as great stuff from great minds. Then I read "Decide what is worthwhile and follow through with it" and I'm beginning to yawn. When I came to "Above all, life should be fun" and "Always keep a window open in your mind for new ideas" and I'm just about ready to throw the book into the garbage. Also, the format of the book is terrible. Someone decided to put every quote into a little frame, so you get four quotes on a page.

Still, for the price, it's not that bad. No, on second thoughts it's pretty dire. There's just too many pathetic jingles in here for me, which only motivate me to demand a refund! If I were you, I'd save my money and put it towards something else - "The Book of Positive Quotations" has 7000 quotes and I wouldn't be without my copy.

I bought this book, as I often do, on the basis of the gushing reviews. The quotes themselves are wide-ranging and varied, and do live up to their promise of motivation to a degree, maybe not to the extent promised by the author: "Don't wait another day, achieve success TODAY!!!".

I would have preferred if the quotes were grouped into some sort of chapters or themes, rather than randomly listed. Shallow as it may seem, I found the layout and design quite unattractive, which matters to me in a book that you should want to handle often.

I love to read motivational books, Tim Robbins is one of my favorites and after reading this one, Thomas Vilord is being added to that list!!!. What an inspirational book. I don't want to sound like everyone else but, after you read a few pages of this book you can't help but be motivated and inspired to do just about anything. When I need it, this one really picks me up and helps me move along. Thanks!!!!
