Dare to Win
by Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen
The authors' pre-Chicken-Soup motivational book: belief, goal-setting, visualisation, affirmation, asking and persistence, with their trademark stories. It is a product of its era, enthusiastic and unqualified, and still readable as a straightforward encouragement.
Read it if…
you want classic, upbeat motivation without nuance.
Skip it if…
you want evidence or caveats; there are none.
Three things you will actually use
- Dare to ask; most people never do.
- Write goals down to make them real.
- Persistence outlasts talent.
Do this first
Write the goals list it asks for and date it.
Our verdict
Classic, upbeat, unqualified.
