Self Hypnosis as those of us searching for a book on it is meant to be a way to reach the sleeping mind the way to do this is through trance Bruce Goldberg offers this as well as many scripts From Ordinary to the Extradordinary does is work sure if your consistent I Know the Cd I listen to will make you feel good because you keep hearing positive things and since your relaxed your more likely to believe them . Does Bruce Goldberg offer many Scripts and a Cd For a great price I might say sure but if you more as to why which I didnt know that I wanted till I bought this book then try another book because its one thing to blindly hypnotize yourself which this book will help you do but why and how Bruce does give a brief history and a few lines on how to make your own scripts but the books is mainly for the scripts which cover the common stuff Self confidence smoking weight etc. then in the end of the book for you new Agers there are different scripts for Astral Travel as well as all the Way to your higher Self ..........So you decide what you want.

Overcome habits, phobias and other problems using self-hypnosis and this book, which advocates a 20-minute daily program of self-hypnosis using one's own recordings to `reprogram' subconscious behaviors. Dr. Bruce Goldberg maintains all hypnosis is really self-hypnosis: he's worked with over 14,000 patients since 1974 and in the revised edition of Self Hypnosis: Easy Ways To Hypnotize Your Problems Away he includes a guided set of exercises on CD as reinforcers.

The Ultimate Performance Guru
Helpful Votes: 27 out of 30 total.
Review Date: 2004-05-30
Geary Rummler has been giving wise advice on how companies can improve business processes and human performance for the last 35 years. Many believe that Rummler's work at Motorola in the early Eighties stimulated the development of the Six Sigma movement. In 1990 he co-authored Improving Performance, which is still the best introduction to business process improvement, and is still popular. Serious Performance Consulting: According to Rummler, is a collection of Rummler's writing over the course of the past decade. Much of this material is focused on the analyis of organization performance problems and on the management and measurement of business processes. There are also discussions of the problems consultants face when they try to improve organizational effectiveness. Hammer is a great motivational speaker, but managers who really want to know how to make change happen, turn to Rummler. This book shows you how the ultimate performance guru really approaches and solves problems. If you are involved in Six Sigma or BPM, you have to read this book.

The Loving Dog's Story
Helpful Votes: 0 out of 0 total.
Review Date: 2006-07-17
Jessie Hass lived on a Vermont farm as a child. She had lots of pets in her childhood, and she also trained her own horse.
Chad's old dog, Shep had died and his family bought a new dog, Queenie. Chad doesn't like Queenie because he still misses Shep, and Queenie isn't good enough to replace him. Chad's new neighbour, David was an animal trainer and helped Chad train Queenie. Chad and Queenie understood each other through the training.
I think this story is heart touching because Chad and Queenie finally understood each other after the training. This story is also a page-turner because I couldn't stop reading! This story has a lot of details. I think that lots of friendship and understanding happened in the story. This is mostly showed by Chad and Queenie.

This book knocked me off my feet! I bought it for my nephew's birthday and read it first - it is lovely! It is a great story about a young teen-age boy and his dog, as well as factually accurate in terms of positive/clicker training. In fact, buy it for every dog trainer yoiu know as well as every dog-loving kid!

Review Date: 2002-09-12
Anyone interested in animal training using operant conditioning (clicker training) will truly enjoy this story of a young boy learning how to train his dog with the help of a new neighbor. His sister also learns training techniques for her horse. But the story has even more to offer about how to shape your own life and help those close to you in a positive way. The author deals effectively with issues of grief due to the loss of a pet, reconciliation between a boy and his grandfather, and the often tested love between siblings. The message is of a teenage boy surviving difficult times and looking forward with hope to his future. If you want to remember how it feels to be young with a world of possibilities before you - read this book.

This book is exactly what parents need who want to be positively involved in their children's education. Williams defines the educational lingo (babble)-- effectively empowering parents to understand what's being taught (or not taught) in the schools. A great tool for any parent who desires to make real changes and improve the quality of education their children receive.

Although relatively small (75 pages), this paperback covers a little bit of everything pertaining to Sibes. From breed standards to training to breeding. For it's price it covers a lot of ground but might not go into the detail one might expect from a larger book. However, for it's size and price I feel it is an excellent book worthy of purchase for any owner of the Siberian Husky.

This small book could not have hoped to cover "Everything..." as it claims, but I have found it to be useful on many occasions. It provides a general guide to almost every conceivable situation and concern, providing the quality of advice a new owner needs. An owner of a new sibe puppy will want to supplement this book, so they should consult their breeder-use an established husky kennel, not a backyard breeder-other texts, and their vet. Other topics, like medical/health and diet, will likewise be covered in more detail in other places. Don't stop with this book but do get it if you are with sibe. And hang on to that leash!

This book is the first coaching manual, I've seen, that covers the non-technical, as well as the technical, aspects of the game. Tom has such a common sense approach, and it is such a fun read, that I found it very easy to put it all into practice. And guess what, not only did my golf game improve, but my enjoyment of the game is back. Time to go out there and have fun again!!

This book came on the scene in the middle seventies and Michener covers the gamut of the problems and excitement of sports dealing with beginners to the pros. Most of what is written can still be adhered to today as the ideas and concerns seem to occur now just as they did a few years ago. This book should be must reading for all sports minded people and applying the suggestions to today's market. A great book.

An Overview on Sports You Won't Find in the Media
Helpful Votes: 4 out of 5 total.
Review Date: 2001-06-08
This book is well worth reading by everyone: players, viewers, or to know more about the subject. James Michener loved sports: they made the difference between life and death. As a youth he drifted into a bad crowd, but was saved by athletics. His skill in basketball led to a scholarship to college, rather than prison. Later in life he suffered a heart attack, and was delayed in getting to a hospital. He survived because his robust exercise helped his heart to develop alternate feed lines (p.8).

Chapter IX discusses "The Inescapable Problem" of aging and the decline in physical ability. Walking, swimming, and tennis are doable from ages 5 to 85 (pp.274-5). Most other sports peak at ages 24 to 32; forty is the usual limit. The author notes that athletes are provably in better shape than the general public; but their life expectancy is worse. Could this be a side effect from the fame and glory?

He discusses the case of those who get a sports scholarship. They spend their college time in sports, play professionally for a few years, then disappear. He shows that those who study in college (like accounting) can earn far more onver a lifetime than those who quickly burn out.

I just joined a masters' swim team. I was the same age as John Jerome when he swam in this book. I just found this book motivating and that it increased my knowledge and understanding of elite athletes. It also taught me more about the world of competitive swimming. The book mainly dealt with people who were good swimmers/competitive swimmers when they were younger. I wish at least one swimmer like me without previous experience was in the book, but I still found the book had application to me. I reccomend it.

Well, I bought two books. The other one is about a guy who is trying to be a cross country skier. I am glad that I read the other one first otherwise if I read John's book first the other one will be super boring. This book is not just about how he becomes a swimmer but rather how people should deal with the inevitable - aging. I enjoy his writing so much that i bought 3 more of his books.

Inspirational, especially for the budding, mid-life athlete.

I read this book after a suggestion in Phil Whitten's book on swimming. It was hard to find, but very inspirational to me as I was getting heavily into serious swimming and athletics at 48, the same age as the author was when he got back into swimming. His adventures are thoughtfully described and his experience easy to identify with. The book got me interested in Jerome's other works, which are also very involving.
