Wow - was I wrong! Because I LOVED it! For the first time, I see the Beatles legacy actually helping me to live my own life in a more powerful, creative and joyful way.
The author knows his stuff, I learned several things I never knew about the Beatles. The author especially captures the spiritual essence of our dear-departed beloved George Harrison, and clearly shows his impact on the group and the world.
PLUS - "The Beatles Way" is never boring or preachy. It's a fun read, and Lange puts the "Yeah!" into the "Yeah Yeah Yeah!"
Get this book! I bought six copies for my friends and kids - it's the only self-help book I ever found useful! Kudos and thanks to the author for this breath of fresh air.
The quotes from the Beatles that underscore the seven "principles" of Fabness really spoke to me - it's like having John, Paul, George and Ringo as personal life coaches.
I especially like the action items (called "You're the Fifth Beatle!" at the end of each chapter)- here's where I can take action on what I've learned and it really works! Positive lessons like keeping a sense of humor, and taking time to dream the way the Beatles did - gave me a fresh start to the day.
Great concept, great book. I highly recommend it for self-help fans, and not just for Beatle fans.
Lange has the uncanny aility to share The Beatles as role models - so that all of us can discover the joy, hope, and sheer excitement hidden within our own lives - just waiting to be revealed.
The book has inspired me to take a good long look at my own life goals and spiritual beliefs - and lift them to a loftier place - just as The Beatles did during their decade of unprecedented success and influence.
I've read many, many, many self-help books - however, this one is a classic of the genre. I guarantee this superb little book will work like magic for you in your life.
