I was excited to read this book, but finished disappointed. This book introduces many excellent points and ideas, but offers very few suggestions on HOW someone might go about doing those things.
 Get (a real) Motivated book... November 13, 2009

Just finished the book after attending the Get Motivated seminar. After attending the seminar I didn't want to purchase the book, but a friend had a copy that I decided to read. The book really lacks any substance on how to get motivated and does not back up any facts that are claimed. It's a pretty simple though but doesn't go into great detail on anything. I found the concept of motivational dna intriguing, but again, not enough facts or studies to back up the theory. I recommend other motivational books by more well known personalities.

I have made a lifelong practice of reading motivational books. From Napoleon Hill to Norman Vincent Peale to Tony Robbins, I've read them all, and can say that through visualization, persistence and prayer, I did accomplish my outlandish life-list of goals by age 40. The toughest parts were always: maintaining my level of enthusiasm over the long run, and not understanding why those around me didn't always get fired up by ideas that I believed were the greatest!
Right on time for my second set of goals comes Get Motivated by Tamara Lowe. This remarkable book gets down to business and explains why people think and act the way they do. We each arrive for our life's journey equipped with a unique set of characteristics, and while everyone is certainly different, there are perceptible patterns to what drives and motivates each of us. Understanding how to intentionally create and sustain motivation in yourself and your team, instead of waiting for inspiration to strike at random, is an effective skill that can be easily learned and applied.
With my busy lifestyle, I have neither time nor inclination to pore over charts and diagrams and scholarly texts; just give me the facts that work in the real world--that produce results FAST--and I'm good to go! Tamara's writing style is friendly and direct; the book's premise is clear and memorable. Of the 20+ books in my library of motivational classics, Get Motivated has provided the most practical insights into my day-to-day personal challenges and business relationships.
My staff has caught my enthusiasm for Get Motivated, and we are already seeing results--increased productivity and smoother team communication. I highly recommend this book and the accompanying web resources.

I first heard of and heard Tamara at a Get Motivated seminar. She had me riveted. I took the quiz online to find out my DNA - PVI. I was amazed by how the quiz felt like it was going to say something strange about my motivational DNA (something I wouldn't agree with) but when I saw the result, I saw it was on point. I bought the book. I can barely get through it because I keep reading something that motivates me to do something! I decided to take it to work and all my co-workers are in awe of what they have learned from the quiz and now they want the book too! They even gave the test to their spouses and significant others. I gave the test to my PSE husband too who was delighted to find out he was The Chief. He's not easily led and he agreed the result was on point for him. The whole thing has taken on a life of its own. :-) I'll surely get it as Christmas gifts for my co-workers but I'll bet they'll buy their own copies before I get a chance to!
I HIGHLY recommend this. At a time when I had already made a list of some things I was not satisfied about in my life, this book came along and suddenly had me motivated to do some things that affected those very same unsatisfactory areas. It's nothing you don't already know, I think, but then again so often you do know what to do and need a little motivation to act on it.
This book does that. Plus, the profits go to charities. Love it.
