 Rating:  - A waste of time and moneyDon't bother with this book. One must suspect that it's all a clever trick which will contribute to Paul McKenna's success in life but definitely not to yours. I followed the book and listened to the CD exactly as directed. It's hard to believe the generally platitudinous advice but for a week it seems worth a try. Of course absolutely nothing changed and I question my naivety in ever thinking that reading a simplistic book and listening to a frankly very boring CD could make any difference in the real world. There are many people who seem to feel that this book helped them but my suggestion would be to attend instead to your own problems and not to look for simple solutions. It certainly wasted my time and money. Rating:  - Useful in the right context-but is NLP anything more than a useful tool?I do feel that people have missed the point with these NLP techniques. Many are simple devices oft used by behavioural psychologists. But it is only natural I guess that NLP, positive thinking and general life coaching exercises have quickly become the opium of masses. The credit crunch, wages not keeping apace with inflation and just about managing to squeeze out a hundred or so pounds each month to 'treat' yourself is the norm for most of us now-if we're lucky that is. So that means everyone is vulnerable to a 'secular religion'-a new answer. However, I'm not sure NLP is meant to be used for that. I purchased the book and like any up-take on a 'new fad' felt the immediate endorphine rush that goes with it. I then attributed any 'positive' ...

Of course, on day 1 I was very excited about the week ahead and getting to grips with life and taking on a more positive attitude. Although I still feel this is my intention, I found the book overall to be disappointing. For one, there is too much to read each day! I have not been working this week - I have been on holiday and had a few other things to do but not much and it has taken the best part of all day to read each chapter and do the exercises. I mean it takes an hour to listen to the CD alone. (Half hour in morning, half hour in evening) If I had been doing an 8 hour working day, plus travel time, plus dinner and every other thing life ... Read More: Rating:  - This book tells you how to do it. But you must do it yourself.I'll start by saying, I have all Paul's books, and I'm a massive admirer of his work and ethos. There's one massive flaw with this book though. Reading the synopsis, the reviews and even the introductory chapter, you get the impression reading the book will change your life in seven days. If you just read it, you won't. I do feel if I was to knock one mark out of one hundred for this book, it would be that Paul doesn't make it clear enough, you can't just read the book. It's a manual you have to learn from and apply to your life. Practise, and execution is the key. Paul will show you how to do it, but really you have to do it. I would consider needing 15 mins a day (best in the morning) to go through the exercises. Read More: Rating: - Change your life ...at your own paceI agree wholeheartedly with the rave reviews others have given this book/CD, and I second the notion that the "7 Days" part of the title is quite ambitious. But no one can predict how much reprogramming their own mind will need until the work gets under way. In my first few days of listening and reading, before I noticed any real changes in my outlook or my behaviour, I found myself looking forward to the time I would spend on this. So maybe there were changes already happening that were a bit too subtle for me to recognise them. Within about 3 weeks' time, there was no mistaking that my thought patterns were becoming more positive and now (about 3 months since I first bought the book/CD), it's clear that much of the content has stuck with me and ...
