The Power of Thinking Big
By John Maxwell
Honor Books, 2001 - 160 pages

This book is not Maxwell’s best book and I believe he quotes himself way too much (1/3 of the total quotes are his!).   At time the book borders on Arrogance.  His best books on inspirational / motivational / leadership are Power of Leadership and Power of Attitude (these are similar size books and quick reads.)  If you are looking for a full-blown book try his book, 21 Indispensable Qualities of a Leader or 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership.  While I know the book is supposed to be about THINKING BIG I found many quotes from other books.  There are better books out there to spend your money on.

They key to getting any long-term value out of Maxwell's books is to highlight the quotes you love and integrate them into your daily life. Practice what you read essentially. Hope this helps everyone.
