Review: Short, but well written and to the point

Jim Rohn is my idol. I started my blog less than two months ago and you can find the name of Mr. Rohn in 4 out of 11 posts. I listen to his audio programs several times a week. I even edited all the stories out from the "Cultivating un Unshackable Character", so I'm able to listen to it over and over again.I know his teaching by heart.So I was really interested in this booklet. My overall impression is very positive.On the minus side:- It's really short!- Table of contents on my PC Kindle is empty- Only 75% of the book is about Jim Rohn, the rest is self-promotion (well, I'm guilty of this sin in my books, too; but all promo material is gathered at the end and the excerpt about Jack Canfield was quite interesting in fact)- The Early Years part was too brief and brought nothing new for me (basic info easy to find on the Net)On the plus side:- I admire the author's capability to extend one Mr. Rohn's sentence into a few-paragraphs-long lesson. He picked just a dozen gems from millionaire's philosophy, but he showed them in the full light. He was able to do it all the time.- Even such a fan like me found something new to learn about Jim Rohn's teachings and his person.- I found another mind blowing similarity between Mr. Rohn's and mine philosophies.The 'secrets' of Jim Rohn are given in the telegraphic, but precise and well written form. This is really life-changing stuff, if you treat it seriously. I know, because I applied almost all of it in my life and my life has changed.Spend a few bucks on it, treat it like a treasure worth a few million dollars and you won't regret.PS. A tidbit. I counted about 70 highlights, but grouped in just a few paragraphs. And there was none in the chapter describing how to manage your own finances. Has this book been read only by millionaires who already knew and applied this stuff?
