Along with helping to build my motivation, this little book was straight to the point and very easy to read. In this short story, the author combines his personal experience, and research to convey the importance of motivation through how ready the person is to change their daily habits for the better. The author tells about the patients he encountered during an internship opportunity and how change (no matter how big or small) helped them become motivated to do better. I would recommend this book to anyone who feels as if small change wouldn’t be significant in their life. This book would dramatically change their opinion and make them want to strive for a better lifestyle. The Sixty-Second Motivator offers its readers simple steps (referred to as “secrets”) to follow through with their improvement. It was enjoyable to read and very eye opening!

Having read Jim Johnson’s No Beach No Zone weight loss book, I knew WHAT to do, plain and simple, and WHY it was important. So why wasn’t I doing what the book laid out as a proven plan for weight loss? It’s all about motivation. There’s even a chapter on motivation in his weight loss book – but this book takes it one step further, into the science of motivation. Personally I think both books dovetail into one another well, especially if your lack of motivation happens to be in the field of losing weight. The science of how to lose weight permanently, and the science of motivating yourself to do anything. Once again, this is all based on research and not what one guy thinks.
One of the best surprises about this book is the way it is written. Without giving away too much, I can tell you that this book is more of a story than a collection of facts, and reads almost like a mystery. One thing’s for sure, it’s extremely engaging. I read the whole think in one sitting; the research and strategy don’t take volumes to explain or lay out. I’m not one to read huge volumes, and Jim Johnson always makes a concise read devoid of medical mumbo-jumbo. The actual motivation chart takes up one page and really makes you think about what makes your own self “tick”. The only excuse for not getting motivated is if you aren’t willing to give up one hour of your time, and a little more time spent thinking straight.

I read this short book within a space of an hour. It is straight to the point, and is written in the style of a story. The author is a Physical Therapist and tells the story of when he was a student and he visited a senior Physical Therapist in a hospital as part of his training. He learned how to motivate someone within 60 seconds to undertake therapy by increasing importance + confidence in the patient. Although this book was essentially about how someone was able to increase his patients’ motivation, this can also be applied to other areas of your life – for any goal. It is an easily understandable read and if you are looking for a way to increase motivation quick then look no further than this book.

This is a simple, easy to read explanation of motivational interviewing – probably the most effective way to help people change. Using a story format helps not only with remembering the information, but with knowing how to apply it, either for yourself, or for someone else. I’m a psychologist, and I’m trying to use this technique more in my work, so I’ve read professional books, watched DVDs, talked to colleagues, etc. I can honestly say this little book has probably helped me just as much as any of those. Highly recommended.

Being a cardiac rehab nurse, and spending a lot of time each day trying to get people to change their lifestyles to create better health, this book caught my eye. After reading it, I found the principles instantly useful for me to use at work. They can help anyone get motivated to get past the barriers that keep them from making changes to improve their health. Additionally, the book is short and to the point which is good for a busy Mom like myself.
If you want more info on it before purchasing, I suggest you check out some of the links in the comments section below to get some unbiased reviews from other independent sites (some of the reviews here seem a little way out, like they had an axe to grind with the author or something). You really can’t find much bad written about this neat little book!

Forget the motivational seminars, DVDs, and CDs. This little book has more insights into motivation than anything else I have seen! No hype here.
The author has taken complex concepts and made them easy to understand in an entertaining way. I use the practical tips not only to motivate my patients, but also to motivate myself!

This is a great book for anyone to learn about how to motivate yourself or others. It’s in a very simple story format without a lot of exercises like other self-help books. Very good book – I highly recommend it to anyone that needs to know more about motivation.

This is a great little book. It is written in a light style that makes it easy to read and digest the principles that Jim spells out. If you have ever tried to make a change and been unsuccessful in accomplishing your goal this little book will help you to understand why you failed and how you can increase your chance of success. I found it to be helpful both with my own personal goals and in better understanding what may help to motivate my clients to achieve their stated goals.
