    Oh, the Places You'll Go! (Classic Seuss) by Dr. Seuss - has to be one of my personal favorites (although I have many). When I ran a preschool I started a tradition with all my 5 year olds - beginning with my own son - that when they left my program to go to kindergarten they would receive their own copy of the book from me. I would write a letter inside the cover about my favorite memories of and with that child. I've given it as a High School grad gift as well. I'm gonna lensroll your lens with my motivational lens about Persistence and Passion ! 5 Stars ! http://www.squidoo.com/persistence-1

    I can't vote, since you have to join Squidoo to do so. I'll say you have some nice books here, but one I love is Secrets Of The Millionaire Mind by T. Harv Eker.

    Good morning, Marina.

    I'm sorry for the delay in approving your blog to the list. I've been busy offline.

    Great lens, John! I voted for Jack Canfield's "Success Principles" which is my all-time favorite motivational book. Each chapter is only a few pages long, yet it's a very thick book -- making it easy to open to a random page and glean some inspiration (sort of like the bible).

    I also added my motivational blog, SufficientThrust.com, to the list (hope that's okay...) ... I have one motivational post a day written and scheduled for the next year, and I designed it so people could get a little boost each day.

    I second that MarinaMartin! After reading Jack Canfield's books I was amazed and relieved to find out what was holding me back. I am a true believer in motivational books and audios they are truly empowering.

    Hi John,

    Being a keen follower of everything positive I've found the information on this lens extremely beneficial. There have been many PMA episodes in my life but my current favorite life changer has to be "The Secret" a real must for anyone serious about moving forward or gaining a better understanding of what goes on around them and how they can actually influence this.

    Top lens my friend 5 stars, lensrolled and favorited.

    Kind Regards

    Clive Anderson
