I wish I had started studying for the CCNA with this book - I would have saved myself some time, money, and grief.  Simple, focused, easy read, and not too deep.  The other resources have their place, but this is a great tool to help you pass the CCNA exam.

Wether your just starting out or have been a TMBG fan since the start (like me) I feel this collection is a great value.  It spans there entire collection from the start to it's release.  If I can't decide which THEY to put on the player, I stick one of these CD's in.  I know I'll hear all my favo's anyway.  If your new to They, this is the best place to start.  I feel this really is the BEST of TMBG's stuff.  You would need to buy each of the early albums to cover all the songs you get in this collection. THEY are always a good value, but this CD takes the cake.

I wish I could give this book ten stars!  I've read most of the great motivational books - Napolean Hill's Think and Grow Rich and Master Keys to Riches, and Norman Vincent Peal's Positive Mental Attitude, plus dozens more,  but this book summarizes them all.  If you are looking for a quick fix, this book is not it. It is a book which will make you think, examine, question.  Take it in small bites.  My volume is underlined, starred, notes in the margins.  This is a great summary of the best of the best.  If you are in a  hurry to reach your goals, this is the book you need to start with.  However, it is NOT a fast process.

If you truly wish to turn your life around, this is the book for you.  If you are not sure of where you want to go, this is the book for you. If you feel that YOU are different, that LIFE has given you some bad blows, this is the book for you.  START HERE!

Mr. Tracy will take you by the hand. Help you to eliminate your excuses.  Help you to examine your true goals. Help you to lay out your plans.  He will not let you make exuses but will hold up the mirror of self examination so you can see where you are fooling yourself (but no one else, really). He will help you face YOUR truth, but will also kindly provide the path you seek to a better life.

I am planning to buy this book for all of my employees, although I'm not sure all of them will "get it."  You make your own life; you are responsible for where you are right now...and for where you will be in the future. I am also planning to contact Mr. Tracy to see if he will be a guest speaker at my organization.

Folks, if you can buy only one book, then this is the one. I've read most of the other major players....Hill, Stone, Peale, Mandigo, Clawson, Collins....and they're all great.  Many of them are at your local library. But for the very small price of this book, I recommend that you buy Maximum Achievement so that you, too, can underline, write, reread, make notes, and totally consume this book.  This is not a paid advertisement. I have never met Mr. Tracy nor have ever read any of his other books (however, I intend to now).

If you want to make the most of your life, this is the book which will head you down that road.

I have all four of Ottolenghi's books and made it a resolution for 2015 to cook one recipe a week from one of the books. So far (33 weeks in), I have turned to this one most often. The recipes for Corsican Pie (a savory main dish) and Stewed Blackberries with Bay Custard (a dessert) are--alone--worth the investment. They are both delicious! I have had a decent share of "meh" recipes, but at least I am learning and trying new things. And once you have orange blossom water, harissa, and zataar as staples in your pantry, you have an arsenal of awesome you can unleash at any time! Also--Jerusalem had some excellent dishes--especially Roasted Chicken with Clementines and Arak. Yeah, you should buy that book too!

After (40) years in personal growth, this is the BEST BOOK that DISTILLS it ALL down!!  At least give it a read and see if it resonates with you. You have nothing to lose (you'll get something out of it) and everything to gain.

This is one of the best strength and fitness books available if you are starting off as a beginner. If you pick up heavy weights without having control of your own body weight first, you're asking for trouble. It's going to be really hard to get injured when you use the slow progression method that the author recommends,and this is key.
By using slow progressive exercises, you can little by little work up to amazing feats of strength. The key is to get started and get started NOW! Be patient and you can reach your strength and health goals. Follow the blog of someone who started form level zero and has been sticking with it for almost six months by going over to blog-spot and searching for "My Convict Conditioning".

I'm familiar with Chef Greg Easter from his YouTube Channel. He is, without a doubt, my favorite Chef in terms of actually teaching you what to do and the quality and flavor of his recipes. NO FAILED RECIPES here! Just methodically follow his easy instructions and you are in for a real treat!

This book covers what looks like a good portion, if not all, his current videos with additional content which adds to, and enhances your repertoire!  The way I see it, you can create a full dining experience for a romantic dinner or a very impressive dinner with friends.

I've tried several of his recipes and, all have been delicious. Many are complex yet balanced and always flavorful. Some are mesmerizingly subtle. All are memorable. As mentioned, he teaches highly effective techniques which help ensure success. I've never been more impressed with a Chef than I am with him. I have been cooking for about 50 years. I started in the Family Italian Ristorante and Pizzeria. I am also what some people refer to as a foodie. I have a fairly extensive library of recipes. I can honestly say that in every case, Chef Easter's recipes easily replaced what was my previous favorite. Hell, he even replaced my family Tomato Sauce recipe. (I still love you Nonna!).

Definitely check out his YouTube Channel. Combined with this book, you're going to be transformed into a much better cook and, if desired, one impressive entertainer!

This Reviewer's advice: run the extras first, where you get eight full TV Special performances and a hugely important piece with Mitzi describing her experience in Miami with hot studio lights and an even hotter Rock and Roll act out of Liverpool. (If you have the Sullivan shows with that act, you'll know exactly about how a woman in her 30s kept pace with that group!).

If you choose to watch the whole DVD, be prepared for alot of second party narration and glorification. The stand-alone production numbers really say it all.

If you don't own any Daft Punk music, this is the best one to start with and maybe finish with. Consider it a live collection of their best tunes or greatest hits. In my opinion, it's better than their Musique Vol. 1 1993 - 2005 as the selections are better balanced with more tunes and minus the three boring remixes. You might miss not having one or two from that collection like 'Something About Us'  although these live selections go up to 2007 and are blended seamlessly together. Even if you're not into techo music, this is maybe the only one you'll need. It's a great album for a party or if you're working around the house or in the yard as the energetic and infectious music pumps you up to make toiling a pleasant task. The enthusiastic background crowd noise on this recording adds to the intensity without being obtrusive. There's some slight variations of some of the originals that got tedious by going on too long, but here they seem an improvement by the duo knowing when to tighten and shorten them - 'Rollin' and Scratchin' is one example. Highly recommended!

By far, Jon's best book. And I LOVED the others! I should note that this book isn't JUST for career "do-overs"! It's for any do-over! I think every single person could benefit from reading this book no matter where they are in their lives.
