No amount of knowledge makes up for insufficient action. I've heard that for small biz owners, marketing should take up 80% of your time. But I don't think there's any book that's the last one you need to read. Fortunately for bloggers, reading a book counts as action if you turn it into a post! @ Tom, I agree that taking action has to be the priority.

I'm curious to see what he has to say about the "secret ingredient" though, so perhaps it'll be a worthwhile read. I think it's more important for people to actually put their plans into action RIGHT NOW, and stop reading all these self-help books! Someone said that The Hidden Secret is the last book you'll need to read; anyone who is not yet rich SHOULD make it the last self-help book they read and then go get rich!

Then again, why do so many people with desire and faith fail to become rich? Not sure where you heard that the secret is "there is no secret; the journey is the reward," but that's really not even close to what he says. It's a real secret, not a gimmicky thing. Like I said in the review, "...it’s not the law of attraction, and it’s not desire, and it’s not persistence. Basically, if you’re just making a guess, that’s not it." @ Tom, I agree to some extent with the desire and faith thing. Then again, why do so many people with desire and faith fail to become rich?

Nothing special; I'd imagine most people who read TAGR already have the desire and faith (at least I did). I read somewhere that the secret that Brian Kim reveals is something along the lines of "the secret is that there is no secret; the journey is the reward." Whatever the secret "really" is is irrelevant; desire and persistence is really all you need. Desire to be rich backed by the faith that you will become rich is the real secret.

But it will be here when you come back. @ Evelyn, that's interesting about the word attraction being removed. Many people would say the market is not ready for it, even today! @ Chris, good point, your goals can change as you figure out what you’re really looking for.

I may just decide to get the ebook!! Only thing is that I don't know when I'd have a chance to read it as I've got a couple of books on my waiting list. I'm not sure what secret Brian will be sharing. But in the video on "The Secret Behind the Secret" by Abraham Hicks, it is revealed that the original manuscript of Think and Grow Rich had the word "attraction" (or "law of attraction") repeatedly in it. The publishers at that point in time deleted this word because they felt that the market was not ready for it! <abbr><em>Evelyn Lim´s last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/attractionmindmap/~3/509783946/" rel="nofollow">Ideas For Soul Growth In 2009</a></abbr></em> Thanks for the review!
