Title: Shut Up, Stop Whining & Get A Life!
Post by: Tyler on June 29, 2007, 01:11:58 PM
That's what Sly author and the Pitbull of Personal Developement, Larry Winget would tell you.

I'm currently reading his book Shut Up, Stop Whining & Get A Life! (http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Famazon.com%2Fs%3Furl%3Dsearch-alias%253Daps%26field-keywords%3Dlarry%2Bwinget%26Go.x%3D0%26Go.y%3D0%26Go%3DGo&tag=bestmyspacepr-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=9325) and I'm loving it so far.  He's very direct and to the point.  Because of this, there isn't any fluff in his book which allows him to cover more material.  It also makes if for a quick read!

Here's a couple Sly pics of him and a video:

a similar approach to Dr Phil.

But as long as Phil McGraw hangs on to his horseshoe, he won't be as cool as this guy.

Yesterday I was sitting around channel surfing and ended up watching Larry Winget for about 2 hours. A&E had a marathon of "Big Spender" with Larry Winget.  The people on this show had really screwed up their lives by not being able to handle money.  This guy is good and really has a way with cutting through to these peoples problems and making them face up to the things that they're doing to mess up their lives.  I was really impressed.  Great spokeman for SLY.

Larry Winget sounds like the type of guy we need in our call centre to boost morale and efficiency.

I don't have time to read the book.  I'm too busy watching Oprah and learning the many ways I'm being victimized.  When, that's over, I have to make a list of the people who victimized me and confront them so I can find "closure".....  LOL

I like Dr. Phil myself, he definately needs to go sly. O0

TOOOOOO damn true. When is Dr.Phil gonna ditch the horseshoe and claim his rightful throne as the King TV Sly Shrink. Seeing him Slick smooth bald isnt too far off hopefully.

I havent checked overstock.com  I went to Barnes & Noble they had the book but it was $32.  I hate spending that much on reading material unless it has a nice girly figure on the front...and in the inside....centerfold...back cover....ooops I talkin about totally different reading material here...but then again you dont actually read those kinds of books ..or do you?
 :*)) :*))

Where the mind will wonder!
