KIRKUS REVIEW

Robbins owns his own island. Why don’t you?

It’s just a “small island paradise,” mind you, but itdoesn’t hurt that Robbins has amassed a considerable chunk of change bybuilding a life-coaching empire. Of course, there’s a certain obnoxiousnessattendant in telling an audience that you’re rich, but the promise that theaudience can be rich too has its own charms. Robbins seldom ceases to berah-rah in his belief that if readers just suspend disbelief and follows “the 7Simple Steps in this book”?the proprietary caps are his?then the big win can’tbe far behind. Obnoxiousness aside, the author is no slouch; for this book,he’s interviewed and studied the portfolios of numerous billionaires (ordinarymillionaires need not apply) to find out the secrets of their success, many ofwhich fall into his own simple-step septet. It would steal Robbins’ thunder toreveal them, but one bit of general counsel that makes good sense is offered byJP Morgan Chase investment whiz Mary Callahan Erdoes: “You can never be out ofbalance in taking care of yourself as a person, taking care of your work as aprofessional, taking care of your family, taking care of your friends, yourmind, your body.” On the matter of balance, Robbins offers a seeminglycounterintuitive dis-recommendation of the old balanced-portfolio mantra,which, he holds, can put the holder at unnecessary risk; that provocativeadvice alone is worth the cover price. Of course, the rules vary frombillionaire to billionaire; they call to mind Somerset Maugham’s witticism,“There are only three rules for writing a novel. The trouble is, no one knowswhat they are.” Still, Robbins’ common-sensical, relentlessly positive, oftenhighly specific advice is both useful and inspirational?which is just asadvertised.

Great airplane reading on the way to that private island andsure to occasion a few adjustments in one’s portfolio.
