Great collection of tips 2006-09-25
Reviewed by Kornelia Longoria for Reader Views (9/06)
Sixty Second to Success is a collection of tips that everyone, starting from a simple white collar worker to the highest executive, can use to reflect on the quality of their lives or career and make it better. The book is divided into chapters stressing troublesome, at times, areas of our lives, such as" Know What You Want from Life" or, Motivation" and "Discipline". Every page contains one tip and talks how to incorporate that tip into your life. Under the tips, the author placed a workbook area, where you can make notes and jot down your ideas on how to put the tip into action.
The language of the book is very clear and simple. The author is very precise and to the point and does not waste time or paper to elaborate the rules. What I like about his style is that he does not bore the reader with numerous examples from his life or life of someone he knows just to prove his point. The tips are all there is that you need to work on improving your life and your everyday habits. They are clear and easy enough to be used right away and leave some margin for your own interpretation or modification.
It will give you all tools to get and stay motivated, manage your time more effectively and plan your life and your goals wisely.
In conclusion, the book is a very valuable guide for anyone who thinks about improvement and perfecting their lives. It is quite simple for everyone to comprehend and rich in ideas, at the same time, for the demanding ones. The room for notes at the bottom, of each page, makes the book a fantastic source of a daily self-improvement training.
A must have!  2005-07-25
If you've read a lot of motivational business books, you know this stuff. If you've worked with a professional or personal coach, you know this stuff. However, in Sixty Seconds to Success, author Edward W. Smith turns them into, as my British friend Pam would say, "Pithy little statements!"
Smith condenses the motivational information into 42 easy "ah-ha" chapters, each ending with "action steps I will take to..." relevant to that chapter's subject.
My favorite thought is near the end of the book: "We all think we are in control until things go wrong, and then we lose our sense of control."
Smith wants us to get back in control of our life by using these 42 chapters as jumping-off places. It's an easy read but not a fast one if you really think about and react to each thought geared to your personal betterment.
Here are some of Smith's thoughts I feel are worthy of sharing:
Give your ideas wings; take action when an idea strikes you.
Raise the bar: give yourself permission to live up to your full potential and you will be surprised at how good you will feel.
Test yourself, push yourself and see what you can really do. I believe you will find that you really are an eagle in many ways.
Get your "yes" magic back. Don't let other people's opinions stop you.
Don't focus on the problem, focus on what you want.
Give yourself credit for doing things right.
Move from the planning stage to the doing stage.
Life is boring without problems.
If the price of gaining knowledge is too high, what will be the price if you don't gain it.
How much time and energy do you take putting up with problems - and why we should deal with them now.
More battles are lost than won (because the other side did something to lose).
Always be positive when you talk about yourself as you are the most important person to hear it.
Act "as if"-as if what you want you already have. Sixty Seconds to Success should be on every bookshelf (after you've read it!) and pulled off again and again when you need a motivational push.
A series of quick, action-oriented tips and techniques 2005-03-08

Smith draws upon his experience as a motivational speaker and the host/producer of the cable television show "Bright Moment" where he interviews top peak performance/success experts. He has distilled into this remarkably "reader friendly" book a series of quick, action-oriented tips and techniques for how to live life better and more personally fulfilling. Also included are methods for handling fear, increasing productivity, and in general, living just the kind of life that suits the reader's abilities and circumstances best. If you only have time to read just one self-help book, then make it Edward W. Smith's Sixty Seconds To Success. It's about the best investment of your time that you could make and will benefit you for the rest of your life!
