 Great, Practical advice
I have read several Cloud books, and although sometimes he can be a little too secular for my tastes, I always walk away feeling a little wiser and more confident. Very easy to read-I found myself looking forward to getting back to it, and plan on reading it again soon. I am already putting some of the [very practical] advice to work. The material could be useful for everyone-from a high school student to a CEO- not just for the business class types. This is LIFE advice-not career advice.

Success ( willygee2 )
From the cover, it appears that the book is marketed at the success oriented crowd. Dr. Cloud is identified as a psychologist and co-author of the best selling 'Boundaries'. We have to go to the back flap to detect the biblical orientation via a citation of his previously published 'God Will Make A Way'.
There are wonderful biblical quotes that illustrate points made along the way and the context freshens our perceptions of biblical wisdom.
The brief, but very helpful concluding chapter might be read first. Here, we get a little from the author on how he came to make a success of 'Success'. He very frankly offers 12 steps toward applying the 9 things, and the first is 'Do Not Go It Alone'. It seems Dr. Cloud came up in a community of like minded folk who could support each other's ambitions.
In the absence of such support, 'you are not going to go far'.
With chapter 12 in mind, you might very profitably read the book from front to back and keep it handy for future encouragement.

 AWESOME - Life Changing ( wildriverdesign )
Anyone who is living in this world and wants more out of life should read this book. It is amazing at the simple things successful people do that seem so small and that you don't even notice that are really huge oaks in their lives and make them so successful over long periods of time and through their life. This book can help you in every area of your life and especially if you are finding life difficult, a living death, a hard road to walk... this book will give you great insight on how to live LIFE to it's fullest in practical way and get results that you didn't think were possible. I could go on and on about it, but I promise you, get it, read it, and you will never look back.

Must Read ( wadesuzgillespie2 )
This is a MUST read for 2007. It is very good, and very practical and really makes you think. It's is beautifully written. Hands down, amazon is by far the cheapest.

a good success book ( kikuyamaa001 )
Cloud does a good job on how to have a successful life. First, you must find what you would like to do as a career. Second, deal with problems by fixing it or eliminating it. Third, create a well thought out plan step by step all the way to reaching successs. Also think about options and see if they will hurt you or help you in the future. Fourth, be proactive, be a person of action. Fifth, be dilligent and industrious by doing something and make progress, no matter how small the progress is. Sixth, Be sure to fix what you hate in a positive way. Seventh, do not seek justice for yourself, seek rather to give mercy and forgive. Eighth, study and grow in humility. Ninth, realize that you cannot please everyone.
