Begin with Yes: A short conversation that will change your life forever

I read "Begin with Yes" while preparing my business plan for 2010. Plans involve looking to the future and deciding what you want to accomplish. "Begin with Yes" provided me with practical lessons and action steps that I incorporated directly into my plan. A key to achieving a plan is to take action. "Begin with Yes" will help me move forward with my plans. I thoroughly enjoyed the book and I have been applying the learning each day. Thanks Paul, for sharing your insights.

If only I had "Begin with Yes" advice years ago . . . Boynton's book is like a conversation with a therapist or very wise friend, gently encouraging the reader to take action to reach goals, whether big or small. And it all begins with the first "Yes" step. Boynton views the world with eyes and heart wide open, and his words are both encouraging and inspiring.

Paul Boynton's candid anecdotes provide the reader with an inspirational jump start to motivate even the most passive of souls. He makes you feel that any dream can be pursued if his message is internalized and you just GO. The "why not" attitude is contagious! I would recommend this read for everyone who desires to be the best person that they can be! I bought 3 copies to give to those most close and special to me.

Let's face it, there are a lot of motivational books on the shelves these days but this one is different. Paul speaks in a relaxed, conversational tone that is full of practical guidance and encouragement. There's no preaching here, no tired formulas and axioms. Just honest, hands-on advice about how to take that next step and the next step and the next step. I keep this book on my bedstand where I can reach for it when I need another injection of optimisim and motivation. It's like having a personal coach on call.

Reading this book feels like a supportive and inspiring conversation with a good friend. Whatever it is you have been putting on hold, Paul will give you the tools and encouragement to "begin". Everyone should have a copy of this book on hand. Easy to read font style and size too.
