The book, How Successful People Think, is the result of all the people the author has met
over the years. John C. Maxwell is an internationally recognized leadership expert and is also the
founder of EQUIP and INJOY Stewardship Services. In this book, he gives you a big secret, the secret
for thinking successfully.
He says that if you change the way you think, you can change your life. He is the perfect one to
write about this, for he knows many bosses, chairs of big companies, and leaders in various domains
who have changed their lives. He became aware, after talking with them, that they all had one thing
in common: the way they think. Positive thoughts can make you better, not only with the people around
you, but more importantly, with the way you envisage and act out your life.
He starts by summarizing the positive points to being a successful thinker. Then, he explains step
by step all the benefits of the method. For every assertion he gives, he includes a quote and a
famous person known by not only successful people but also by people like you and me. This is
quickly followed by examples of the good that your change of mind can give.
The author is very accurate throughout the book. He first lists the positive points, and then gives
the ways to achieve them. You can strive with your mind to think creatively and to help and be helped
by the people around you.
