“Buy this book. Period. Richard Brooke's Mach II With Your Hair On Fire is one of the first books I bought when I realized that my life was the product of my best thinking.....and that if I wanted different results, I had to learn how I was creating my own results.
 
Everytime I read this book, I'm amazed at Brooke's engaging, humorous style....but also with the clarity and simplicity that he's able to communicate some EXTREMELY powerful concepts.
 
If someone wants to create immediate results in any area of their life, this book has a nuts-and-bolts approach that will work for you....if you're willing to apply it. And the application is fun, simple and rewarding.
 
It's a great book -- buy it!”

“Richard Bliss Brooke has polished the art of motivating change in people unsatisfied with their lives. In this brief and immensely readable little book he condenses a life of work and teaching into a manual for CHANGE. Interspersing his wise directorial stance with quotes from successful people, charts and lists to aid the reader, and enough book design to encourage staying with the 'project' to its successful end, Brooke has created a manual not for survival in the world as it is, but rather a manual for exploring the concept that personal change comes from embracing vision and motivation.
 
On the premise that we create our own destinies by changing our core beliefs about ourselves, beliefs based on what we absorbed from birth to age five, Brooke shows us how to write our own screenplay for our lives based on self motivation (enthusiasm, courage, persistence, creativity) to create a vision of what we want to be and then how to daily review our progress in attaining the persona we want to be. It may sound simplistic, but once the reader becomes involved in Brooke's supportive, friendly, yet demanding 'program' the book leads us through, it is difficult to imagine how we could fail, so committed is his tutelage.
 
Of all the 'self help' books on the market, this little volume is for this reader the most easily digested and, more importantly, the most solid formula for achieving success in finding and becoming the person we want to be. In the back of the book Brooke lists pages of quotations from Shakespeare to Gandhi, giving a bow to Don Miguel Ruiz' book 'The Four Agreements' - his closest 'competitor' in this arena. MACH II WITH YOUR HAIR ON FIRE is a book to keep on the desk, at the bedside, or anywhere it might be readily available for brush-up reading to assure the reader stays on the path that Brooke assures us will lead to success and happiness. It is terrific reading!”

“I have a copy of this book and I read once in a while when I need a funny, focused dose of the Law of Attraction. The LOA is everywhere but this was one of the first that spoke about it in other than secret terms.”

"Conquering Africa’s tallest mountain is no small feat … especially if you’re 68 years old. But I knew in my heart I could do it. I just needed a plan. So I closed my eyes and visualized myself on the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, 19,340 feet above sea level. The picture I created in my mind was so vivid I actually felt like I really was there. In my mind, I had successfully completed the climb. Then I put this 'vision' into writing:

Standing on the summit of Africa’s tallest mountain makes me feel that all the hard training was worth it. It’s been the trip of a lifetime. This goal has been achieved and I am standing in front of the sign, “Uhuru Peak, Congratulations, you are now here.  My teammates are all around me, beside me, in front of me, and behind me, and will be there forever.  We started for the summit at midnight with our warm clothes on.  It’s really cold and the ground is crunchy under my boots. Why am I doing this at 68 years old?  That is the question people have been asking.  My answer is that I never got to do it when I was younger.  Now at 68, I am in the best shape of my life and I am not ready for the retirement rocking chair.

Less than a year after I wrote my vision, I successfully scaled the mountain. I knew in my mind it could be done because I visualized it; I saw myself there. I was on the top of the world.”

“I loved this book by Richard Brooke. I also read MachII starring you. Both are a must read for anyone in a network marketing business. This book has a very clear explanation of the law of attraction without all the cloak and dagger of "the secret". I especially loved his definition of vision: "To the degree there is a contrast between how we are performing now and how we envision ourselves performing, motivation pours forth. This is an automatic and natural effect. It flows whether we want it to or not." Read the book. It's worth every penny.”

“Richard Brooke’s Mach II offers so many inspiring points to ponder that it is impossible to pick the most precious. I will recommend this book to everyone. Richard’s insights are priceless. I especially liked the powerful entry, All I Ever Needed to Know I Learned in Kindergarten. I also enjoyed the thought-provoking message, if you don’t know who you are or where you want to go with your life, you probably won’t become who you want to be or get to where you want to go. You must decide and act. Words of wisdom to live by!”
