The One Minute Millionaire combines a novel and textbook about the philosophy of the enlightened millionaire. The book is unusually designed to coach you in reaching financial freedom.

The left-hand pages of the book contain steps for commitment and action using real estate, investments, business, and the Internet. The right-hand pages are the inspirational story of a recently widowed young woman who must raise a million dollars to rescue her children.

This is an excellent collaboration between Mark Hansen, author the Chicken Soup for the Soul book series; and Robert Allen, author of Nothing Down, Creating Wealth, and Multiple Streams of Income.

The pages compliment each other by helping you learn a system for creating wealth that benefits others (as the authors point out, “like a hammer, money can be used to build or destroy”).

The authors use positive affirmations called Millionaire Manifestations. These affirmations help you form a strong commitment and prevent hysteresis (a scientific term that characterizes the tendency of materials to snap back to their original shape once pressure is removed).

Once your commitment to reach your goals has taken root, the authors describe the tools of leverage, mentors, teams, and networks. Characters in the novel put these concepts into practice while the textbook uses short stories, lists, explanations, illustrations, and web site activities.

This wealth-creating system combines skills and tools for real estate investing and running your own business. This book emphasizes that every minute is an opportunity for a million-dollar idea. The One Minute Millionaire builds your confidence and helps you energetically formulate an action plan to reach your financial goals.
