Customer Reviews

I guarantee, that you'll find at least one thing important..

Reading the book I guarantee, that every single reader will find at least one idea, advice or thought useful or important... Many of these ideas are absolutely new, were not published in quotation books. (I worked for a publisher, and we published several quotation books... I know, what's "out there".) And if you only find one important thought in this stunning collection, don't you think it was worth to read it?

Wonderful insights for every day at your work!

Edler did a wonderful job gathering these quotes. They are very helpful. I read it one or two of its quotes every day. You should have it!

My mentor

I have had the extreme privilege of knowing Rich Edler on a personal level and working side by side with him. At the age of 18, I am forging the path for future success. Rich has really become my mentor in this journey, and if Rich is my mentor, then this book is my guide. You will read this book straight through to the end, it's great for any age.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book!

I picked up this book in a bookstore one day and read the entire book on my lunch hour the next. Page after page, it just "hits home." I would recommend this book to anyone, young or old, who is unsure of themselves or where they want to go in life. There's nothing like the voice of experience!

Highly Insightful and Amazingly Intelligent

This book is simply one the most compelling collections of intelligent opinions, observations, and suggestions that I have ever had the pleasure of reading. Any person, regardless of age, will enjoy reading these varied opinions on what it takes to become successful in business and in life. What a pleasure!
