Présentation de l'éditeur

Live Life Aggressively! What Self-Help Gurus Should Be Telling You is a much different take on the self-help genre. This book is a slap in the face! It will force the reader out of his or her comfort zone, and will move the reader to remember what he or she needs to know to move forward with purpose. It is about taking charge of your life, and striving for greatness, rather than accepting mediocrity, or a life of quiet desperation. That is what it means to live life aggressively! It means to live with strong purpose and resolve. This book covers areas that few have the courage to talk about, and that is the problem. It is the white elephant in the room that everyone wants to ignore. Instead of confronting this problem, most people waste time watching nonsense like reality television and texting all day long.

Self-help books are so focused on making you feel good about yourself, that they fail to help you be honest with yourself. Without brutal honesty you will never move forward. Without a strong sense of purpose, and passion, you will never persevere through the inevitable plethora of hard times that are coming your way in life. People need to accept that they will suffer in order to lead a fulfilling life and that the suffering should be embraced rather than avoided. Embrace the suffering and avoid procrastination the true destroyer of hopes and dreams.

This book’s focus is to induce real/lasting change and that comes as result of being aggressively honest with yourself, using pressure to your advantage, running toward risk rather than away from it and having a clear vision of what you want and what you are willing to sacrifice to get it.

Some of the unique topics covered in this book include: the importance of hormone optimization for well-being and achieving goals, why the real battles in life are within, the necessity of negative thinking, what really makes people happy, and why people should avoid being attached to the results of actions.

50% of profit from book sales will be going to two fantastic organizations. Lifequest Transitions a great organization that helps wounded warriors and the Nevada SCPA an excellent organization that helps abandoned animals find new homes.

1.0 étoiles sur 5 Weak re-hash of other books 29 novembre 2011
Par Paul Skavland - Publié sur Amazon.com
Format:Broché|Achat authentifié par Amazon
I didn't like this book, but I'm going to try to review it as fairly as I possibly can.

I find it ironic that the author claims to be telling you things not found in self-help books, but then, in the back of the book, he recommends several -- including Wayne Dyer, the granddaddy of all self-helpers. He even recommends you read "Think and Grow Rich!" All of this book's main ideas are taken from other self-help or motivational books (e.g. "The Book of Five Rings"), and simply presented in a more "macho" style. This style isn't even new, there are others like Larry Winget presenting in this style.

Okay, so it's a re-hash. If the information is good, who cares?
Well, it's not. The author might be an awesome personal trainer and an expert on fitness (I don't know), but he's not a great writer and the book seems random and disorganized. For example, there's a chapter on how to network better, and there's also an entire chapter warning us not to join multilevel marketing (MLM) organizations (Amway, etc).
Really? We need a chapter about avoiding pyramid schemes?

None of this information gave me the "kick in the ass" motivation I was looking for, or promised by the cover of the book. Hell, the first page of Jim Wendler's 5/3/1 book got me more fired up than this whole book did.

I can save you the price of this book and summarize its entire contents this way: "Take a long, hard look at your life. If it sucks, it's nobody's fault but yours. Get off your ass and do something about it."

So there. I hope this review helps some people.

5.0 étoiles sur 5 Tells you what other books won't 22 août 2011
Par David J. Chesser - Publié sur Amazon.com
Format:Broché
Self help books that tell you like it really is are few and far between. I've read many of them and most are sugarcoated psychobabble nonsense. I didn't want to be coddled when I bought those, I was looking for the tools I need to get ahead. Fortunately I bought Live Life Aggressively and found what I was looking for.

Mike pushes you to make a real, honest self assessment of where you are. He then gives you many tools to help you along the way to where you want to go. The journey will be hard but Mike uses many examples from his own life to show you how to overcome potential problems. His honesty is refreshing and gives a more realistic picture of what it takes to succeed. I felt I was listening to someone that had been there.

Besides the self help aspect, the book also functions as a manifesto for those who believe in being strong. Physical, mental, and emotional strength is becoming a rare thing these days and those dedicated to being strong have few resources to bolster that way of life. Living Life Aggressively makes you realize that you aren't the only one who believes this way and makes a good read when you need a little steel added to your spine.

One final note, Mike did a good job of listing the various books that influenced him and I've enjoyed tracking down and reading a few of them. You will, too.

5.0 étoiles sur 5 Could not put this book down! 31 août 2011
Par Kenny - Publié sur Amazon.com
Format:Broché|Achat authentifié par Amazon
I've read my share of "motivational" books and I knew, almost instinctively, when I was reading a book like "The Secret" (just to name one) that it could not be true...nothing is that easy. And I was right. Unfortunately most self help books fall into the catagory of "feel good" books. LLA is the opposite of a feel good book which might be why it made me feel good. It speaks to the inner voice inside your head that tells you to do right instead of wrong...the good angle, the true angle. Because you know, in your heart it takes a lot of hard work to achive anything so when Mike spells this out for you (time and time again) your almost relieved because you know this is the truth. You can wrap your head around it because it's a solid fact. Like any good piece of music; you dont need someone to sell you on this fact it great, it hit's you right between the eyes...no need for outside validation. Like a great meal, you know from the first mouthful, this is the real deal. That's how I felt a quarter of the way through Mikes book.

The other think I really enjoyed were the analogies and examples Mikes uses to illustrate his point. He really colors it in for you. The book is deep, it forces you to think and take stock of yourself and touches on everything from Ghandi to Vanilla Ice.

All I can say is buy this book,you will not be disappointed.
