David J. Schwartz
Born in Saint Paul, Minnesota, David J. Schwartz spent his childhood making up plots for movies he was too young to see in theaters. Inspired by everything from Borges to roller derby—including fantasy stalwarts such as Anne McCaffrey and Ursula K. Le Guin—Schwartz turned his creativity to writing, becoming a Nebula Award-nominated author. Schwartz regularly attends Midwestern fantasy and science-fiction conventions, such as WisCon and Convergence, and prefers kids and dogs to most adults. After traveling the country, he has settled back in Saint Paul where he hopes to spend the rest of his days.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Part of the summer reading program while selling educational books door to door with SouthWestern. Motivational reading, still remembered years later.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A bit outdated.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Recommended to my partner by his prof. I've had a quick look through it thus far. The message is good, but the packaging of that message (very American-style "self-help" - think Leonard Nimoy in The Bodysnatchers) is a little hard to swallow. We shall soldier on, however...
Edited to add: Oh, wait, I already said it. The message is good, but the style and mood makes me want to gag. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5What a book!! This book is easy to read, understand and makes sense. All of us ought to be thinking big and focus on our dreams. This book is a must read for everyone.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great book!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Another book that is like a workbook to me. I've read and re-read this book so many times that it is about to fall apart. Great information!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5First read this book in a business class with Richard Skidmore at Pierce College, Woodland Hills. What a timeless treasure. Definately worth reading over and over again.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Key Terms:Excusadis DiseaseIt is not how intelligent one is but how one uses his intelligence.Attitude is more important than intelligence.Ability to think is more important than the ability to memorize facts.Action cures fear.Forced smile will change your mood.Look is important and you will be important in the eyes of people; make sure to look sharp.Seat in front row i n public; it will improve your self-confidence.Managed solitude: spend sometime alone. 30 minutes a day.Always think progress in all you do.Visualize the future.Be ready to take detour in life.Invest in yourself, your education.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5One of the best self-development books' I've read. My wife reads it every year. It stretches your thinking beyond what you first think you can achieve. Great book to give to your teenagers to read.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5LIFE CHANGING!
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A good book to start stretching your mind to create a more abundant life.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A treasure trove of positive psychology. Simply written, the necessary amount of repetition, and not vague or wishy-washy, but straight forward and PRACTICAL.
I can see myself in the future returning to this book again and again, reading 10 random pages each time - plenty to focus on; plenty to think about and try to work into real life.
I just wish the title was one that friends wouldn't so quickly form rubbishy preconceptions over!
There are countless one-liners worthy of wall-space.
"A person is the product of their own thoughts"
"The best is not unattainable. There is room for doing everything better. Nothing in the world is done as well as it could be."
