Rating: - Good
Not really what I thought this would be but a very good book.
Lots of easy tips anyone can use to make quick changes in their life.
I can't fault anything he mentions in the book and it opens your eyes to some of the stuff this man has been through.
But if your looking for good info on Cosmic Ordering or the Law of Attraction I really suggest getting the Secret DVD & What the Bleep DVD as they follow on very nicely from this book with easy to use guides.

Rating: - One of the best!
As a Psyhologist I have read hundreds of books on positivity etc. But this has got to one of (if not THE) best I have read. It is written in a very honest, pragmatic and sincere way, and not at all pretentious (as many of the books in this genre can be). Noel Edmonds just gives you the facts of how positivity has always won through in his life, and it's up to the reader to take the facts and run with them. If you are wanting to learn more about the mechanics of cosmic ordering, then perhaps this is not the best book for giving you the actual nuts and bolts of cosmic ordering. If you really want to know how to order from the cosmos, then I think the best book out there at the moment is 'The Cosmic Ordering Guide' by Stephen Richards. Again, a small compact, unpretentious book, with no additional fluff, and a book that gives you the facts (and makes mention of Noel's book on a number of occassions)
Anyway back to this book, my advice is BUY IT. It is fantastic, and you can't help but be inspired with this man's story.

Rating: - Great stuff
This is a very uplifting book without being Saccharine sweet. His ideas make perfectly good sense.
Saying that, it's not always easy to say " I love you" to those you're closest to as a lot depends on the way you were raised. I'm from a family where this is frowned upon, so, although it's admirable that Noel himself does this frequently, he also came from a very loving, open family.

Rating: - Excellent book
This book is well worth buying. I like the way Noel Edmonds has thanked his co-writer instead of taking all the credit for himself and think this action says a lot about his personality. If you are buying this book to find out about cosmic ordering, I would recommend you buy a book called Ask and It is Given the teachings of Abraham, first, as it gives much more detail. Having said that this book has some truly good and simple advice. I have started to follow some of his tips and have already seen some big changes starting to happen around me. Don't hesitate to buy it, it is a nice easy and inspiring read.

Rating: - Insubstantial but an interesting short read
I think to suggest that Noel is out to do nothing with this book other than line his own pockets is to entirely miss the point. The book is all about been positive and that viewpoint is undoubtedly very negative. I myself found the book a very useful guide to the thought processes that Noel has used to engineer his own success. However, I don't think there is anything new here, all of his advice can be found and is covered in more detail in similar 'self-help' books. A better, more substantial example, would be, `How to Stop Worrying and Start Living'. I am in fact very suspicious that Noel has a copy of this!
The examples Noel uses from his life are beneficial and add an interesting context. However, the book lacks substance, it is very short. I think the publishers have tried to pad it out by fitting very few words to a line and to a page. You could read this in a few hours from front to back cover. Overall I don't think it is a book that I would highly recommend unless you have a particular interest in the life of Noel Edmonds and 'Deal or No Deal' to which he often refers. If you are looking for something on Cosmic Ordering then you definitely won't find it here. Although Noel includes references to 'The Cosmos', that's all you get, the odd reference here or there.
This book reads like a short summary. There is some good advice here but it only touched upon before Noel moves onto something else. It's a great shame because his approach of interleaving his own experiences is a good one. Unfortunately he does also try to make some irrelevant political statements especially when he is talking about his charity work. Some sections like this do come across a little patronising and I can understand why some readers would take offence.
