Million Dollar Habits

This book has a great focus on 'habit', the habits that successful people use and what they are so that you can apply them to your own life. I really liked the use of quotations and famous figures in this book. Additionally, I loved how Tracy (the author) stated a habit and then backed this up with information from psychology, for example. However, references to the bible may not be for some. I felt that some of the points made were really interesting and something different to what I have heard or read before. Furthermore, there are questions for you to answer in relation to your own life which may help you actually implement some of the things that Tracy talks about. I was surprised by how much information was actually in this book, I appreciated that it did not ramble on about the same point but rather had just the right amount of writing and then introduced another. Overall, this was an interesting book and if you would like to read about different theories relating to success, you may want to read it.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this book to anyone dedicated to personal development. No matter how much you think you know, this book will teach you something new. Such a fantastic book. An absolute delight to read. Because of this book, I now tell myself many times everyday, "I like myself". I also used to consider myself a personal finance genius and thought I knew quite a bit. And then Brian taught me a new concept - Put 50% of all future raises into a savings or investment account in addition to whatever I currently contribute. Mind Blown! That's just two nuggets, I'm sharing with you. I have another 20 written down in my journal. Thank you Brian Tracy for writing such a valuable resource.

A pleasant surprise. This book had a lot more going for it than I thought it would. Full of sound advice, it is not a get rich quick scheme book. It shows the value of effort and saving can lead to rewards. Well written.

When all the self-help and success-books came together and appear in one book: this one contains everything what you can ever read around.

There are many clever and useful books about how to be rich and successful and how to improve your personal and professional life. Brian Tracy summarized basically all of them in this book: he touched and collected everything what can be known about these topics. There’s a common point in the chapters: “habits”, but it’s only a guideline, a word, which can be used for anything…

The first chapter is about how to think about yourself, how to imagine your life in the future – the more clear is this image, the more chance you have to achieve it. After that Tracy repeats the esoteric “law of attraction” – you need to think about much what you want. The more you think about it, the more chance you have to get it…

The first third of the book is the best, because he gives really useful advices. There are seven points how to form a habit in your daily life (write it down, share it with others, not to make exceptions etc.). He gave advices how to set up and achieve goals, how to improve your skills, how to use your time – good thoughts all. There’s a chapter about finances as well, how to save money and finally how to become wealthier – clever and useful again. There’s nothing new around here, but Tracy summarizes many other sources, books and researches from these areas.

The middle of the book is for “business”: about your office behavior and work, how to get promoted faster, this is great again. But the next chapters are for entrepreneurs or sales guys only, and nothing about average people’s daily habits. How to satisfy your customers, how to overcome their expectations… it’s nothing about a worker on a regular payroll.

Notice that you need to think continually to too many things at a time: to like yourself, that you “can do” it, to think to your future yourself, to your customers, your improvements, and how to make more sales… And it’s not just thinking, but you have to do too many things as well: work more hours, be more with your family, learn every day, sport every day, meditate every day… How many hours he thinks we have in a day? There are repeated topics too: that you can achieve everything, just think about your future, set up daily goals, work hard, work long, prioritize – good points, but unnecessary to repeat them so many times.

But apart from the page-filler sales chapters, what you can connect to your daily life is useful, well-established and well-developed. You don’t need to read many self-helper success-books anymore, because this one summarized them all, so if you want to read only one, I suggest to select this one!

You have never read a book written by Brian Tracy, you are missing out. Million Dollar Habits is a book you can not only use in business but also your personal life. The motivation and new habit lessons begin in the very first chapter. It's most definitely a book that will not collect dust on a book shelf, It will be read over and over as I implement these Million Dollar Habits into my daily life.

"Take control of your habit. Take control of your life."

It is one of the well written motivational books. I absolutely loved it. Out of all the motivational books, I have read has one thing in common - that is the power of attraction. It means you can attract what you think most of the time. As the famous saying goes, "You reap what you sow".

The book covers all the aspects our life and how we can change the bad habits and become a better person. In your personal life or in your professional life how you could develop certain habits which would make you a better person.

Overall, it is a nice book with lot of useful ideas and concepts which can be applied in day-to-day life

"Million Dollar Habits: Proven Power Practices to Double and Triple Your Income" by Brian Tracy is an interesting book that presents to you an overview of which habits the author thinks relevant for you to gain a positive mindset in order to achieve your goals and what you may otherwise want in life.
Just as when you were little and learned how to walk, this book teaches you step-by-step to believe in yourself and how to make things happen in your life. Some of the habits are decidedly more relevant than others and some are just sound advice, such as get enough rest, eat healthily, take your vitamins, groom yourself and such.
I have really enjoyed it and am learning to think and see things in a more positive way.

This is a great book from Brian Tracy. I will purchase one to own.
