This is a terrific story, told by a master storyteller, at a time when it is sorely needed by so many people. I wlll highly recommend this book while leading Color Code training seminars. --Michael Hancock, mike@wakeupandlive.com 3 2009-03-02T17:53:29+00:00 0 44 44 1 2009-03-02T17:53:29+00:00 103 0 I really enjoyed this book, I have all of Spencer Johnson's books. I just bought the book last week, and I have read it 3 times. I have changed the way I think, and how I handle situations when they come. I have a successful fitness business, but I was getting comfortable. The book made me open my eyes, I asked what can I do to make my customers more happy and satisfied, I came up with so many ideas. It's only been one week, and already i see a difference. I know these new ideas are going to help my business. I will be back to share my success story.

I guess the author has written this and has been realeased just at the right time when the things are going tough in the world and everyone needed some hope and strength to come out of the "Valley" and turn it into a "Peak". Kuidos Sir.. looking out another such book. Neville 3 2009-03-02T17:53:29+00:00 0 49 49 1 2009-03-02T17:53:29+00:00 125 0 I always love Dr. Johnson books. The story approach which can inspire and develop of new and difference of my perspective on business and life issues and challenges. Recent reading of John C Maxwell book - The Difference Maker found a similar principle wrote by Dr. Robert Schuller call Peak to Peak Principle with would like to share as follow: When you are on top of the proverbial mountain, that is the time to make decisions. Here's why: - You are see your situation more clearly. - You are moving to something, not just from something. - You leave those around you in a better position. - You decide using positive data, not negative. - You are more likely to move from peak to peak instead of valley to valley. On the other hand, when you're in the valley, the most important thing you can do is presevere. If you keep fighting, you'll likely to get your second wind, just as distance runners do. As it's said that only when runners are exhausted enough to reach that place do they find our what they can truly accomplish. If you keep presevering while you are in the valley, not only will you likely make it to higher ground where you can make better decisions, but you will also have developed character, which will serve you well throughout life.
