Are you living your life the way you really want?
I’m generally weary of life “coaches” who promise to transform your life in a few hundred pages or an afternoon. This kind of stuff takes work, so I approached Michael Neill’s book Supercoach: 10 Secrets to Transform Anyone’s Life with the same skepticism.
However, I found this to be a highly useful reference book to read and reread.
If you’re feeling a little lost or stuck in terms of what direction to take or where you want to go with your business, this book is a great stepping stone.
Neill will help:
- Suck the negativity out of your thoughts and show you how to create positive energy in your life.
- Figure out what you want to create.
- Suggest ways in which you can make good decisions.
- Show you how to create systems to better manage your time.
- Teach you how to ask for something you really want or need.
Whether you think you need it or not, this book is a nice read that will help you get more out of business and life. I found useful tips for various aspects of my own life in nearly every chapter.
Now that you have these Supercoach tools, get started! Transforming your own life takes lots of work and it’s completely up to you…

Finally, a highly useful step-by-step guide on how to achieve success not only at work, but in every other aspect of life.
Based on the assumption that you’re already designed to succeed, Arlene Johnson breaks her recipe for success (a Success Map) into a very easy, manageable eight steps in her book Success Mapping: Achieve What You Want- Right Now!
The book, a cross between a handy motivational guide and a workbook, is laid out for you to pick a clear goal while ensuring you are committed so you set yourself up to achieve exactly what you want.
What are some of the benefits to creating a Success Map?
• “Your life dream or goal now has a big, clear target that becomes much easier to hit.”
• Be “laser focused on ways to accomplish that goal.”
• Once you’ve learned to achieve your first goal with Johnson’s steps, a Success Map will help you obtain all your other goals.
Arlene Johnson does a great job making this book easy to follow and understand. Each chapter is a step in creating a Success Map.
• Step One- What do you really want?
• Step Two- The power of you- with intention
• Step Three- The power of choice!
• Step Four- Using your strengths
• Step Five- Transforming stumbling blocks into stepping-stones
• Step Six- Ask for and get what you need
• Step Seven- Making decisions… with no regrets!
• Step Eight- Yes, I’m really ready to achieve my intention statement!
Success Mapping should be read, reread, and each chapter should be decorated with your personal notes. Before you move on to the next chapter, be sure you’ve mastered all the chapter goals by checking the mastery list provided.
Reading and using Success Mapping as a guide in your own life will help you realize how easy it can actually be to get what you want.
