My love story with this book started about 15 years ago but if you ask me for an objective review, I can say no less than this: This book is all about setting up your mind for success, and it does it really well. It imprints the principles of success in your daily lifestyle, replacing your bad habits with good ones. To accomplish this, it first draws your attention with a moving tale you hardly can turn down, so first things first: Don't start reading this book until you have a few hours to read the whole thing. The story refers to some mysterious scrolls and will gently set you into a state of "I want to read those scrolls now!". And I can witness this: By reading the scrolls every day for a few months you will set the habits of success into yourself. Brilliant! :) I'm proud to recommend it to my friends and relatives when I feel they need an extra push towards some goal they're trying to accomplish, or when they're trapped in a self-pity attitude, and also to readers of my site.

When asked to write a sequel to The Greatest Salesman in the World, Og Mandino said that he "didn't want to risk producing any sort of sequel that might dilute or harm the original in any way." In this sequel, he has actually enhanced the original by seamlessly weaving one story into the next.Hafid, now 20 years older, has allowed himself to slip into a slumber of self-pity. Through a dream and the timely appearance of a mysterious stranger, the greatest salesman in the world sets out once again to better the world around him. More than just an illustration of ten success principles, this book is a fascinating story with nuggets of wisdom hidden throughout. Each of the ten Vows of Success contain powerful observations that will hit you right between the eyes.This book stands well on its own, but will be even more meaningful to those who have read and enjoyed the original.Larry Hehn, Author of Get the Prize: Nine Keys for a Life of Victory

This is such a great book, its so small yet filled with so much helpfull information and advice, I STRONGLY recomend this book to just about anybody. Read the first Part of the 2 book series and then the second and I garantee you will love these 2 books. After reading them, I simply stoped and thought about what i just read, and the information in them is so helpfull and can be applied to just about anything you are going through, it just gives you a whole new way of looking at the world. This book preatty much turns your way of looking at life upside down. One thing though, im 17 and I have never really read anything with such a good positive message to it. And its interesting to read too. So if this is something i liked, this will surely be something you will LOVE !! Take care.

This simple story, if read by any person seeking to be better in their life in any area will find it in this book.
