I'm going to be doing a radio interview with Dave Hall who is one of the 

writers for a new book THINK! and Lose Weight. 

 

Why did they decide to call this new book, "THINK! and Lose Weight?"

 

In 1937 Napoleon Hill published a book, Think and Grow Rich.  It is, 
quite simply, a seminal work.  For it's time it was a hugely ambitious 
work.

 

By the end of the thirties the United States had not fully recovered 
from the Great Depression and Americans were suffering.  Many 
who had achieved success were broken and those who had struggled 
all along were hit even harder.  

In Think and Grow Rich Hill explains the very process of self improvement.

Having studied the biographies of hundreds of successful men, he 
identified the crucial components that separated these men from their 
peers.  Over the years this book has become a must read read for 
anyone interested in in self improvement and it makes my all-time

top 5 list of required reading.

 

Stephen R. Covey published The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People 
in 1989.  A much younger book, it still rocketed to the forefront of self 
improvement literature.  It's success due largely to it being based on 
proven methods others have already used to achieve.

The core lesson of Think and Grow Rich and The Seven Habits 
of Highly Effective People is that success, financial success, 
professional success, weight loss success, success in any 
endeavor is entirely dependent on your mind.

How do you see yourself?  How do you see your goals?  
Do you think they are worthwhile or that you deserve their 
achievement?  The way you think about what you want is the 
single greatest determiner in whether you will succeed or not.

That means that success, ultimately, is a choice.

Certainly work is involved.  Success takes effort.  There's no 
doubt about that, but the first step, the crucial step, is the decision 
to do so.

This book takes the lessons of success and achievement and 
applies them directly to weight loss.  As such the principles 
involved here apply to any endeavor.  Many have found that their 
successful weight loss journey was a precursor to far greater 
achievements.  The foundation to their success having been laid 
with the work they undertook to transform their bodies.

What can you achieve?

Take the lessons of this book to heart.  These are the principles 
not only of physical transformation but personal transformation.

The market is flooded with information on how to lose weight.  
There are a plethora of diets out there, Paleo, South Beach, 
Dean Ornish, Weight Watchers.  There are high carb diets, low 
carb diets, protein diets, salad diets, fruit diets, powders, pills and 
a host of products all designed to help you lose weight.

THINK! and Lose Weight does not promote one method of weight 
loss over another.  Everyone of us is unique and the methods that 
one of us successfully uses may or may not work for others.  
As the saying goes, "Your mileage may vary."

What this book does do is focus on the principles.  These are 
principles of success and successful weight loss and these principles, 
if applied, will work for everyone every time.

With this book you are about to embark on a journey, a journey 
of physical and personal transformation.
