“Good book for the focus it provides.....also has a great list in it about 3/4 of the way in where Marshall describes how he engages with his own coach. For me that is the whole walking the talk focus that all coaches should have. If we are prepared to support others through coaching cause we believe it works, then why aren't we also using a coach or two or more to benefit also. That is one of the first questions I ask any coach, so when is the last time you were coached and what type of coaching did you experience? If they say it was many many years ago....I wonder why?”

“Marshall talks about twenty habits that inhibit one to achieve higher levels of success. Good insights, though not the very best.”

“Helps you reflect on where you stand, how to find where you should head to, and how to go about doing it. Should read it (at least the summary) from time to time so that you dont forget what Marshall has shared with us in this book. ”

“Who knew I was such an unpleasant person. This book will change the way you perceive yourself and others. If you work for a bad manager, you could do worst than dropping this in his office.”

Its like holding a mirror and zapping you back to reality, somewhere the success gets into people's head and they think everything they do is right or believe is the success formula. Little do they know it will bring them down so easily also.”
