Meet & Grow Rich by Joe Vitale and Bill Hibbler
Book Review - 4 Stars
It's only in the last few years that I have become aware of how powerful mastermind groups can be and this book Think & Grow Rich is a raving endorsement for masterminds.
The mastermind concept isn't big in the UK and Think And Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill doesn't have the reputation it does in the US.
How To Easily Create And Operate Your Own "Mastermind" Group For Health, Wealth and More
That's the subtitle of the book and the basic message of Joe Vitale and Bill Hibbler.

The Decisive Moment / How We Decide by Jonah Lehrer
Book Review - 4.5 Stars
I read this book as "The Decisive Moment: How The Brain Makes Up Its Mind" but in the United States it is called "How We Decide" (based on the Amazon reviews and the look inside feature)
Regardless of title it is a fascinating book which looks at how the emotional and the logical brains work individually or together to help you to make decisions at work and in your personal life.
It also helps to explain how the people around you also make decisions.

This is a very personal view of time management and productivity as top marketer, copywriter and author Dan Kennedy shares his productivity secrets.

Neuro-Linguistic Programming In A Week by Mo Shapiro
Book Review - 3.5 Stars
Neuro Linguistic Programming or NLP is one of those subjects that has become extremely popular, especially in the coaching profession and for some years I have felt that I should know more about the basic concepts.
I must admit I have been sceptical as the hype level has been turned up to maximum and NLP Practitioners claim to be able to cure all the ills of the world - or at least that's what it seems like.

Simpleology by Mark Joyner
Book Review - 3 Stars
"Simpleology: The Simple Science of Getting What You Want" by Mark Joyner is a strange book which is rather too clever and knowing in places but interesting and very revealing in others.
It is one of the few books that if you read it, I recommend you read the end first.
Not the last page but the last section which looks at the five laws of Simpleology.
