关于作者

JEFF OLSON speaks to thousands of audiences throughout the United States and around the world. Over the past 30 years, he has helped hundreds of thousands of individuals achieve better levels of financial freedom and personal excellence. Jeff describes himself as "a perpetual student of personal development," and he is as devoted to health and happiness as he is to personal and financial success.
Jeff has worked with a series of sales, marketing, and distribution companies, building three different sales and distribution forces into multimillion dollar organizations from scratch, ultimately becoming CEO of one of them.
Based on that experience, he went on to found The People's Network, one of the largest personal development training companies in the nation where he produced over 900 television programs around personal excellence in health, finances, relationships, and more. He has worked with legendary personal development experts like Les Brown, Jim Rohn, Brian Tracy, and many others.
Jeff currently divides his time between his business in Dallas, TX and his home in Fort Lauderdale, FL.

John David Mann is an award-winning author whose writings have earned the Nautilus Award, the Axiom Business Book Award (Gold Medal), Taiwan's Golden Book Award for Innovation, and the 2017 Living Now Book Awards “Evergreen Medal” for “contribution to positive global change.” He is coauthor of the worldwide classic THE GO-GIVER with Bob Burg (more than 1 million copies sold) and 4 New York Times bestsellers. His books are published in 38 languages and have sold more than 3 million copies. His first novel, STEEL FEAR (coauthored with Brandon Webb) was released in July 2021; iconic author Lee Child called it “sensationally good—an instant classic, maybe an instant legend,” and it was nominated for a Barry Award. Jeffery Deaver hailed the 2022 sequel, COLD FEAR, as “one of the best crime novels of the year.” You can read John’s thoughts on entering the world of crime fiction at https://bit.ly/36ASxAa
John has been creating careers since he was a teenager. At age 17, he and a few friends started their own high school in Orange, New Jersey called Changes, Inc. In his teens he forged a successful career as a concert cellist and prize-winning composer. At 15 he was recipient of the 1969 BMI Awards to Student Composers, then their youngest award recipient ever; his musical score for Aeschylus’s “Prometheus Bound” (written at age 13) was performed at the amphitheater in Epidaurus, Greece, where the play was originally premiered.
His diverse career has made him a thought leader in several different industries. In 1986 John founded and wrote for Solstice, a journal on health and environmental issues; his series on the climate crisis (yes, he was writing about this back in the eighties) was selected for national reprint in Utne Reader. During the nineties he built a multimillion-dollar sales/distribution organization of over 100,000 people. He was cofounder and senior editor of the legendary journal Upline and editor in chief of Networking Times.
He is married to Ana Gabriel Mann, his coauthor for THE GO-GIVER MARRIAGE, and considers himself the luckiest mann in the world. You can visit him at www.johndavidmann.com.

2018年10月19日在美国发布评论格式: 精装已确认购买If it were up to me, every teenager in America would be required to read this book. Like most great reads it is well organized and flows from one topic to the next. Some may say that the advice given in this book is common sense and it is; though it is presented in a way that I believe spurs you into action. The steps to follow are easy, practical and will actually make a real positive difference in your life.
I applied most of the lessons of this book this year and it has lead to less stress, greater health (considerable improvements in blood work with a leaner and healthier body) more enjoyment of life and deeper relationships particularly with my spouse.
Whether or not a book is meaningful to you depends often on where you are in your life. Many of us have had a book recommended to us by someone, read it and thought ehhh it wasn't that great. However, I cannot imagine that someone would read this book and not come away with a changed perspective and tools to enhance the quality of your life whether it is your health, your finances, your relationships, etc. If you don't read this book, you are missing out on a wonderful opportunity to learn how to become better than you were the day before.

2023年3月15日在美国发布评论格式: 精装已确认购买I learned about this book while reading "Happy at Any Cost: The Revolutionary Vision and Fatal Quest of Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh". Tony recommended this book to many friends and employees. (Yes, I know that his story didn't end well). But, this book was easy to read and one of the more practical self help books I've read in a while. You don't feel overwhelmed by lots of advice. It helps you put things in perspective and realize the value of time and if you can do a little more each day. It's definitely a book I will continue to refer to.

2014年2月20日在美国发布评论I never could stick to working out regularly because I was so brainwashed into wanting instant results. After a couple weeks I would give up when I didn't transform into Brad Pitt overnight. This book gave me such an interesting perspective on life and a lot has changed for me by putting my focus on everyday getting a little bit better doing the mundane things right. I used to sleep in every chance I got and would lazily do the minimum required to get things done. I couldn't wake up early in the morning if my house was on fire.
A couple months later after reading this book and slowly waking up just 10 minutes earlier each day and working out 5 times a week and I feel like a completely different person. I got home from work sometimes at 10:00 PM at night exhausted and would still go workout because I wasn't discouraged about how weak I was at the moment, I just told myself I would do it to keep the habit going and get just a little bit better. That attitude has made me massively more productive. I wakeup at 6:30 in the morning now and write out my goals for the day, what I'm grateful for, a positive experience I've had, a little quote to remind of something in the Slight Edge book, I meditate, eat breakfast, and then go workout. By the time I go to work or college classes my day has already felt successful to the point where it carries on throughout the day like a snowball effect making my day better and better. This book hit home for me in talking about how happiness creates more success not the other way around.
In the book he talks about little habits to increase happiness and that in itself is worth getting the book. What you do to go from failure to survival is the same things that take people from survival to success if they would just keep doing them. I keep doing those little things each day now and feel like a compounding penny, changing unnoticeably initially but eventually compounding my value a hundredfold.

2016年7月24日在美国发布评论格式: 精装已确认购买"The Slight Edge" by Jeff Olson educates readers how to realize their dreams and stop being a person who just dreams while life passes by.
Author clarifies the answer in the introduction of his Slight Edge foundation that can be applied to people carrier, marriage, relationships, friendship, love, and practically to anything in people lives. The best part about The Slight Edge is that majority of principles found inside of the book are just common sense, unfortunately they are often forgotten.
As an illustration, when author says "...The average person spends between 250 and 350 hours every year driving to and from this place and that is about forty minutes to an hour each and every day. If you spend that time listening to educational and self-improvement material, you'll have the equivalent of a Ph.D. on any subject you choose in just a few years. That's the Slight Edge...." or "...being productive and being busy are not necessarily the same thing. Doing things won't create your success; doing the right thing will..." we all have to agree with Jeff Olson.
Perhaps a few people will be discouraged comprehending that the slight edge is not some complicated principle, something challenging, mysterious, or something a person has never come across before. Slight Edge is all about the driving force in people lives that bring them closer or distract them from their goals and success.
In conclusion, Jeff Olson's The Slight Edge is very encouraging and motivating book. It is very well-written and simple to read. Because of that, this book is highly recommended for anyone who is looking to change the course of his/her life and ready to become successful. Apply the principles written in this book and you will discover how to make your dreams come true.

Karl P2014年1月13日在英国发布评论5.0 颗星,最多 5 颗星 Hits you like a punch in the face from Mike Tyson! A life changing book!
I have been a student of Personal Development for a while and I have read many books that talk about how 'this ancient secret will transform your life in an instant' or 'meditate on the things you want and supernaturally they appear'. These books do not give practical, tangible solutions and leave many readers frustrated with only the author 'growing rich and happy' at the readers literal expense.
This book however is a rarity and potentially one of the best books I have ever read.
Jeff Olson writes this book in a succinct, clear and down to Earth way. He's obviously a millionaire but what I particular like about this book is that he does not shove it down your throat ever 2 lines.
So what is The Slight Edge? The premise of the book is simple: There is an invisible force that is evoked with every single decision and action that we take, good or bad, big or small. This force is never in neutral so if we constantly make loads of good decisions daily, this will lead us to wealth, happiness and success in our lives or if we make loads of minor errors in our daily routines, given enough time, this will compound into financial meltdown, potentially poor health and general misery.
Common sense so far right? But not common practice! What Jeff Olson argues is that societies around the world have been bamboozled into thinking that success is this instantaneous, miraculous, mystical event that only happens to a select few lucky people but when you really take a closer a look at people whom are successful and stay successful, it's the many, many tiny disciplines that they have fostered in their daily routine that have compounded over time to get them to top and vice-versa for tragic failures.
Olson believes that the reason why many diets are abandoned, businesses fail, relationships gradually erode is that it's not that the actions are wrong i.e exercise and eat more vegetables but it's this insidious 'hollywood' belief of instant results/massive action that stops 'The Slight Edge' from kicking in. Olson believes in a more measured, manageable approach by developing the right belief systems and disciplines will over time get you the life you want.
This book is as much about giving you that philosophy as it is about giving you the action steps. What makes this book so great is it's simplicity - there are several 'aha' moments in the book and I found that it really challenged my belief system to why certain results keep appearing in my life. There are not many books I will read more than twice but this book, is definitely in my 'keep referring to' list. I have already seen some changes in my life following these deceivingly simple principles.
If you have the patience, the openness and the willingness to follow very simple and small positive disciplines then I believe this book may potentially change your life. It has mine.
Enjoy!

Pascal R. Müller2016年3月13日在德国发布评论5.0 颗星,最多 5 颗星 Ein grossartiges Buch - easy to read, or not to read
Das Buch verdeutlicht mit vielen anschaulichen Beispielen, was es heisst, zu handeln und die Verantwortung für sein Leben zu übernehmen. Die richtige Philosophie ist entscheidend, denn sie bestimmt die Einstellung und diese wiederum die Handlungen. Dabei wird einem klar: Der Grat zwischen Erfolg und Misserfolg ist tatsächlich sehr schmal, und es braucht eigentlich gar nicht viel. Das Modell mit der Kurve, die nach einer gewissen Zeit entweder steil oben zeigt oder steil nach unten verläuft, ist äusserst hilfreich. Lange Zeit bewegen sich die Kurven nahe beieinander, so dass man keinen Unterschied sieht (nach dem Motto: Es macht doch keinen Unterschied, ob ich heute trainiere oder das Training mal aussetze).
Ich selber habe erkannt, wie einfach es tatsächlich sein kann, in jedem Lebensbereich täglich etwas zu tun, das einen den eigenen Zielen näher bringt: Sei es im Bereich der Gesundheit, des persönlichen Glücks, der Beziehungen und Freundschaften, der persönlichen Entwicklung, der Finanzen oder der Karriere (die genannten Lebensbereiche im Buch). Man muss nur entscheiden, was einem wichtig ist, und dann dabei bleiben, solange es notwendig ist - oder für immer.
Etwas muss ich nich anmerken: Das Buch ist wirklich sehr "amerikanisch", mit vielen Beispielen und Namen aus den USA.

Diego2018年2月24日在西班牙发布评论5.0 颗星,最多 5 颗星 Life changing book
格式: 精装已确认购买This is one of the best books I have ever read, top 5 of all I've read in my life. It helped me realize some mistakes I was making, made very clear some sort of intuituition I already have about why my life was going down the drain.
Since I read it, took notes from it, reviewed it and created very clear and defined objectives (you won't need other book to do that, following the advice in this book is just fine), I have implemented several changes in my life, which have lead to a much better efficiency at work (I'm a professional poker player), and also in other areas of my lfe (health and finances), and I'm definitely happier.
Totally recommend it, it's a masterpiece.
As a "negative" note, I will say it's a little repetitive, but that's the whole point of these books I guess, and it's not boring. Also, the style is not great, but I guess Jeff Olson is not a writer.
An absolute must! One penny at a time :)
