You can't expand your wallet until you expand your mind. Becoming a millionaire is not just about all the things you want to have, but it's about the things you want to do and give. In order to climb to the financial peak, you've got to crawl out of the valley of debt. You will either voluntarily control your money now, or it will force its control on you later. The vast majority of people never arrive at their destination - not because they don't have what it takes but because they don't manage what they have.

James Allen's From Poverty to Power (1901) and As a Man Thinketh (1902) stand as seminal texts in the self-help genre that have served as sources of inspiration since their publication at the beginning of the 20th century. Loosely based in its principles around the Biblical proverb "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he," As a Man Thinketh asserts the powerful idea that belief is central to bringing about positive events in one's life.

Acuff knows the reason why many writers' novels go unfinished - it's the same reason why gyms are filled in the first week of January and empty by the end of the month and why people stop learning a new language once they get past the easy parts. It's not just that people lose momentum or get distracted. People give up on projects when they fail to live up to their own high expectations and decide that if they can't do something perfectly, they won't do it at all. If you're going to finish, you have to kill perfectionism.

Publisher's summary
Become an extraordinary, results-producing champion for humanity and yourself!
In life, there are two types of people. The first are those who are nice, good-hearted, and compassionate, but can’t make much happen. The other kind can make everything happen - they’re the creators, the go-getters, and the aggressive producers in society - however, they’re often self-centered, greedy, and unethical.
Wouldn’t it be great if you could make things happen in a really big way, but not lose your integrity? The Compassionate Samurai will show you the way to produce extraordinary results in a dog-eat-dog world and still maintain the highest levels of ethics.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

Models is the first book ever written on seduction as an emotional process rather than a logical one, a process of connecting with women rather than impressing them. It's the most mature and honest guide on how a man can attract women without faking behavior, without lying and without emulating others. A game-changer.

Ok for those new in the personal development
There are some good takeaways from the book, however they are hard to sift though with all of the name dropping and stories of people who are hard to relate to. Not super eloquent in explanation of principals. I did not feel that there was much in the book that felt fresh or new (or particularly inspiring). The writer doesen't seem to meet the "average joe" at their level and bring them up.. it felt more like he was standing on a pedestal telling me all the ways I may be wrong, without giving real action steps on how to get where i want in my growth.
Sometimes hearing things in a different way can be helpful to some.. maybe that is this book for someone?
