Review
"In Chandler's splendid new book, 17 Lies That Are Holding You Back & the Truth That Will Set You Free, he charms the reader with stories of his own shortcomings, but offers no reprieve for himself or the reader who identifies with him." -Dale Dauten, King Features Syndicate
Book Description
Steve Chandler may be the best-kept secret in the world of motivation. His first book, 100 Ways to Motivate Yourself, has shipped over a hundred thousand copies. The audio edition listed for three consecutive weeks as the top-selling selection of the Audio Book Club. His second book, Reinventing Yourself¸ published in 1999, is showing even greater strength. His clients include US West, Motorola, and the IRS.
17 Lies That Are Holding You Back & the Truth That Will Set You Free lists over twenty lies that most of us tell ourselves to prevent us from being everything we could be, lies such as: "It's who you know", "That's just the way I am", "I'm not good with people", "I'm too old . . .", "The longer I have a habit the harder it is to break", "Winning the lottery would solve everything", "I don't have the time", and "There's nothing I can do." Actually, as Chandler points out, you already have all the power you need to free yourself. And part 2 of his book outlines these truths and shows you how to recover them and use them to change your life.
In 17 Lies That Are Holding You Back, Chandler is in top form, going beyond the self-help category to the level of such inspirational classics as The Road Less Traveled.

Nothing motivational in this book.. Don't waste $,
By SavvyShopper "SavvyShopper" (Los angeles, CA , USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 17 Lies That Are Holding You Back and the Truth That Will Set You Free (Paperback)
I read other books of steve chandler 100 ways to motivate yourself and was lot better than this one. If you already that one, don't waste money on this. You can read a whole chapter but I bet you won't know what he is talking about. Examples he gives in this book are not solid enough to convince what he is saying. I expected lot from this book but totally disappointed.

Great Book!,
By Zev Saftlas "Founder and Host of EmpoweringMe... (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: 17 Lies That Are Holding You Back and the Truth That Will Set You Free (Paperback)
What I liked most about this book is that Steve talks to you. He is very open about his personal failures and talk about how he overcomes them to achieve success. Many people come to me to help them improve their lives it's so unfortunate that they have been programmed to accept so many limiting beliefs as a truth. This book shows us that there is a better way. It show you how to differentiate many of your beliefs--from the ones that are myths-to the one's that will set you free.

you are either "perfect" or lying to yourself! Does Steve Chandler tell you anything that you don't already know? Probably not. Then how, you may ask, can this book be so helpful? It's encouraging! It's like sitting down with an old friend and walking away feeling renewed. It will change your perspective on things - if you let it!With the Iraq war on TV everyday now, and the NY job market being what it is - I am guilty of letting myself feel that some things are beyond my control (need I admit it? - perhaps a little helpless). Steve helped to remind me that I do have full control over the way I perceive and feel about these outside factors and what effect I let them have on my life. Yesterday before reading his book, I was feeling a little beaten down and today I feel empowered. There is at least one point in this book that I feel would help almost everyone I know! I will use this book as a boost in the months ahead. Read it for yourself, share it with your friends and family!
