Excellent Antidote to the World's Way of Achieving Success!

Once again, Stanley has written a down-to-earth book with practical advice. The Lord's definition and way of success radically differs from the world, and Stanley encourages us to focus on how precious we really are to God.Among the many excellent points Stanley offers are:1. God's ways are different from the world's ways.2. Principles of goal-setting.3. Ask God for guidance and leadership when goal-setting.4. Keys to good time management.5. Time wasters to avoid.6. Keys for successful believing.7. Principles about persistence.8. Trust God to order your steps and arrange the details of your life!Again, these are just a few of the many excellent topics covered in the book. Highly recommended and is an excellent supplement to the Bible!

By far the best success book I've ever read.

This book is head and shoulders above any "success" book I have ever read. I have a virtual library of success literature by all the familiar authors, Norman Vincent Peale, Og Mandino, Zig Ziglar, et. al., but after adding this book to my collection I might as well throw all those other books away. Dr. Stanley does a splendid job of giving you the "nuts and bolts" of what it takes to live a successful life, presented in a straightforward, no-nonsense style. Unlike so much of the self-help junk on the market today, this book gives you PRACTICAL advice on HOW to achieve "success God's way." Buy it, read it, absorb it, and live it!

Success God's Way

This is the BEST book I've ever read on the subject of success. Charles Stanley, in his usual writing fashion, has again made a complicated subject for most christians, easy to understand, and totally biblical. I have advised most of my colleagues to invest in this wonderful instructional book. Thanks Dr. Stanley, and thank you Lord, for giving us this dynamic teacher.

Positive Thinking...God's Way!

Dr. Stanley's book came at a perfect time for me. We are a "Self-help" world now. With several books published on positive thinking, etc....someone has finally addressed positive thinking from the Christian perspective. This book outlines "how-to's" to become a success, but shows you how these principles are not anything new. They are God's "how-to's." I would recommend this book to anyone. This is one of those few applicable books you will ever purchase.There is nothing "watery or cotton-candy" about this book. Nothing but solid biblical truths! Dr. Stanley shows you how to plug your dream into God's scheme!

A book about positive planning

The book is helpful to those who find it are to set goals for achieving success. Not only is this book for those who need help in this area, it is also helpful for those who wonder if Christ should be involved in this process. Tapes are also available
