Trump Never Give Up: How I Turned My Biggest Challenges Into Success

A great, quick, read. W/out spending a lot of explanation re: each success, the book moves thru Trump's insights into staying positive, but also touches on roadblocks. Roadblocks, that are much larger in scale, than most readers' roadblocks will be. The book in an abbreviated way, tells about overcoming challenges. Sometimes the answers are examples of thinking outside the box. Sometimes the answers are merely following through on your original thoughts, but incorporate re-igniting your initial goals, and plans.

It is hard to think that Trump, with all his successes, faces any problems, but in this book, he shows us how he dealt with some of the challenges in his life. I found it refreshing to read about his mistakes because I can relate to them, but on a different scale. It was fascinating to read about him being $1 billion dollar in the hole in the 1990s and making the biggest comeback in history, which even put him in the Guinness Book of World Records. People struggle with being $20,000 in debt, but $1 billion is unbelievable. He said that this was his lowest moment in his entire life. But he did not give up. Instead he focused on the solution, not the problem. He also admits that this event taught him to be a better businessman and entrepreneur. I would hate to go through a similar experience. Instead, I will pay $20 and learn from his mistakes. - Mariusz Skonieczny, author of Why Are We So Clueless about the Stock Market?

"Trump: Never Give Up - How I Turned My Biggest Challenges into Success" by Donald J. Trump with Meredith McIver is The Donald's newest book of success principles that he seems to be putting out regularly the last few years. This, like the others is an enjoyable read and contains simple, but important principles for success. The book can easily be read in a couple of ways. You could read through the entire book quite quickly. It is not that long, and is an easy read. Alternatively, you could read one or two chapters at a time in little spurts for a daily dose of motivation. The 168 pages consist of 41 chapters. Each of these contains a lesson that Trump learned from experience. Some of the stories you have read before if you have read his previous books. Anyone familiar with Trump is familiar with the Wollman Rink story, but I did not mind reading about it again as Trump told how when you think you can complete a six-year project in six months, you probably can. Other examples in the book have been written about before as well, but they were put here with a new twist. Then there were stories in this book that have never been told before, so the reader gets even more insight into the phenomena that has become Donald Trump. I especially liked reading about his patriotism in the Defending the Flag chapter. I enjoyed reading Trump's tales and how his persistence and never give up attitude helped him succeed. I agree with him when he states, "Losers give up." I also think this summary paragraph has a lot of meaning for anyone who would heed the advice and live it, " Strive for wholeness, believe in yourself, keep your momentum at full throttle, and be strong and tough in your resilience. Don't expect anything less than that from yourself, and I can assure you that success will become a permanent situation for you, even when your external circumstances may not show it. Never Give Up!" Reading about the challenges Trump overcame to reach his success should motivate the reader to overcome his or her own challenges. As Trump points out in chapter after chapter, he has faced many challenges and tough situations over the years. Prepare to face those challenges and you will have a much better chance of succeeding. And even Trump failed a number of times. It is all part of life. You won't succeed without failing a few times along the way. Some of the lessons include: Failure Is Not Permanent: Wholeness and the Art of the Comeback; Is This a Blip or a Catastrophe? Be Prepared for Things That Happen Outside Your Game Plan; Expect Problems and You'll Be Ready When They Come: Getting Trump Tower Off the Ground; Separate Yourself from the Complaining Crowd: You Can Create Your Own Luck; Courage Isn't the Absence of Fear, It's the Conquering of Fear; If You See Big Problems, Look for Big Opportunities: Transforming a Dilapidated neighborhood into a World-Class Hot Spot; Know When to Cut Your Losses; Don't Take Yourself Too Seriously; Don't G

Having read and enjoyed all of Trump's previous books, I knew that I was in for more Trump storytelling punctuated with lessons learned. I wasn't disappointed and you won't be unless you are one who will resent that the stories are about his personal triumphs. Kudos to Trump's writer (Meredith McIver) who fashioned 41 vignettes into quick read stories all nicely illustrating the theme of persistence. And, did so in a way that has the feel of Trump telling you each of the stories in a one-on-one setting. Be forewarned; this book is written in the new quick read style designed for an ADD world. Not a heavy tome, in the Bill Clinton style of writing, but an enjoyable quick read. Most importantly, the message of the importance of persistence resonates in a most effective way. I debated, with myself, as to whether the book deserved 5 stars and decided that Trump deserves such for crafting a book that balances the thinking of the currently popular Law of Attraction authors with a mandate for consistent, persistent action as one of the keys to success. Readers looking for easy, quick success will not find it in this book. Trump has toiled long and hard to achieve his success and the essence of his advice is consistent with what has made him such a success. Full, full disclosure: Having just last night watched The Donald and Gene Simmons go mano/mano in the boardroom on Celebrity Apprentice, I think Trump deserves this 5 star for being such a stand-up guy. Gene Simmons was 100% right, but so too was The Donald in firing the other superstar of his show. Neither Trump nor Simmons operate in a manner with which I am personally comfortable, but I do respect greatly their intellect, their stand-up style, and their success over an extended period.

This is one of my favorite books by Mr. Trump, because it shows the dramatic difference that one man with persistence and vision can make in transforming the lives of so many people. It's personally motivating because it reveals huge obstacles (like the 5 year Scottish golf course challenge!) that can be overcome with hard work, discipline and personal leadership. Plus, it's great for putting things in perspective. With all my university sites I founded, this book puts the challenges I face as an online educator in proper perspective, making it easier for me to focus on building my businesses to serve my customers -- by helping me see the scope of larger challenges that Mr. Trump faces with disciplined focus and determination. This is a "must read" book for all other self made millionaire entrepreneurs like myself (or those on the road to success), because it shows the courage and determination of a man who's made it, and wants to share, to demonstrate leadership on many levels. Thanks, Mr. Trump - for being a role model to so many of us through your books, your business development activities, and your success. It works! Regards, Ken Calhoun, Pres. Daytrading University
