Very inspiring - Excellent Book
This book reminds me of The Richest Man in Babylon and The Greatest Secret in the World, two excellent books that were short, low on content but packed with inspiration and value.As Wade says; 'Don't be a goal setter, be a goal getter." Setting goals is easy. Doing the activities that make those goals become reality is the hard part. I liked the quotes by Caryle, Emerson, Shakespeare, Blair, Coleridge, Goethe, McArthur, Wade Cook himself and the references to the bible.I also receommend Business Buy the Bible and of course The Bible.

Be a goal getter, not a goal setter
This is one of the better books on personal development that I have read. It is brief (why do some people thing that bigger is better)and gets right to the point: Be a Goal Getter, Not just a goal setter. Wade quotes a biblical phrase that says; "Be about it." Too many people set goals and then life in the world that Denis Waitley describes as "someday I'll." "Someday I'll open my trading account, but not now." "Someday I'll be financially independent, but not now."
Wade has written a very good book. Also recommend Business Buy The Bible by Wade.

Good things come in small packages...
This is a short, compact book that offers more inspiration than specific information, but it's title suggests that. It's not the usual investment guide by Wade Cook, the former Taxi driver turned stock mogul, it's a book that tries to impart that impetus for acting on your goals instead of just planning them. On that theme, it's excellent!The quotes throughout are great and the book itself makes clear just how precious this commodity we call time really is.
Very well worth the read!
