Sam Horn hits the mark 2008-04-05
great book! Examples are great! Unknown issues being handled in addition to the known ones.


THE TITLE OF THE BOOK IS PERFECT 2007-10-31
Possibly the BEST book I have ever read. I bring my dog to a park and am constantly approaching other people (especially those who are alone) and reaching out my hand to say hello.
A lot of people there are would like to meet someone but are afraid to approach others. I have a lot of friends there and am always meeting more.
Whenever I have extended my hand to say hello I have never been rejected.
I am just an average looking guy who applies the things taught in this book.




Great Tips! 2007-09-21
Positive information provided in easily read chunks! I keep my copy in the car now, and can pull out to read a tip here and there.


Highly Recommended! One of my all-time favorites! 2006-08-18
Sam Horn's intelligent books always stand in a class of their own, with relevant and realistic ideas that can be implemented immediately. This memorable and practical book is a gold mine of inspiration and ideas, and frankly... is a ton of fun to read!

As a professional career coach, I have read hundreds of books in this genre - "What's Holding You Back?" is one of my all-time favorites! For two years, I have been giving this book to my clients as a gift, and have consistently received rave reviews and heartfelt appreciation in response. I truly believe it's an invaluable resource for helping individuals increase their confidence and clarity. I just recently pulled it off my shelf and re-read it for myself, and was once again reminded of its powerful impact.

Chapter 4, "Conversing with Comfort" is simply brilliant! The tips provided on these pages will have even the most introverted individual communicating and "networking" with ease. If you're already an avid `networker' or sales guru - this book will feel like a dear friend, reconnecting you to what you may know, yet often forget. It will no doubt inspire you to "try on" some new ways of connecting to others in a more meaningful way.

I offer my sincere kudos to Horn for this magnificent work, and offer a sincere "must read!" recommendation to potential buyers.



Professional Encouragement 2006-08-04
Sam Horn encourages us to reach inside and see what is manifesting by providing tools to strengthen our confidence, believe in ourselves and get out there and make it happen, try something new. I highly recommend reading this whether or not you are in the middle of a career change.
