The Unified Field Theory for Small Business, February 15, 2009
By Dennis Higgins (Richland, WA)
|
|
SOURCE is often a dichotomy. A quick and insightful read that will require many hours of contemplation to be appreciated fully. A very personal experience with community-wide applications. A gift and a demand. In the end, it is a remarkable insight into what is necessary for the owner to be in order that the small business can prosper...and vice versa.

Life Guide, February 10, 2009
By John F. Lohse
|
|
The book "Source" is listed as a "business" book. What it really is, is a "life guide". It consists of a collection of well organized aphorisms, an aphorism being a short, pithy instructive saying. Another definition of an aphorism is "a tersely phrased statement of a truth". And this book is loaded with truth.
It's a quick read but it should be read every day until "the truth" begins to sink in. It's a book that should be carried around in your pocket/briefcase/purse and read whenever you have a few minutes. It's a book that should become worn and tattered over time as it alters who you are. Plainly put, it's powerful!

Clarity, courage, commitment, context, connection, January 14, 2009
By Suzanne R. Keller DMD

Business? Life! Dr. Marc Cooper reminds us what we have forgotten: to be aware, the power of our words to make a choice, and the power of context to determine outcomes. Is it good, or is it bad? It depends on the context, and the context changes, depending on the individual's frame of reference. I read this book in just a few hours. I will spend the rest of my life "becoming" my new awarenenss. With zen-like clarity, "being-ness" is presented, and I stop, suddenly, and for a time, question all my "doing," question the context in which I am "doing". And, I make a different choice. I'm nervous, and I step over the edge, regardless, and commit to doing something differently. And, in that action, I change who I am. I change my words, and I achieve different results. Simple, not easy, and definitely worth moving through the clouds of fear to find the sunshine on the other side. That was easy! Why did I wait so long to ask for what I needed and act on what I needed? "Source" is the owner's manual to life that we've all been searching for. It is time for all of us to learn to use the power of "Source"!

 Behind the Eight Ball, January 13, 2009
By Steven G. Reitan
|
|
This is a great New Year personal read. It defines the essence of all life and business success. It is the person behind the "8 ball" and that is you. My wife, who has degrees in education and human resources, just returned it to me. I gave her another of Dr. Cooper's books, "Mastering the Business of Practice". Her comment: "This is how you handle the other 364 days of the year." I use this resource routinely in managing our 28 person practice. Combine these two books and you have the business equivilent of Phil Jackson's "Sacred Hoops".

Review of the Source, December 30, 2008
By Steven D. Bradway
|
|
I am looking for meaning in my life; it is a fundamentally human thing to do. The greatest meaning comes from making a difference, but creating difference means facing change; one of the more difficult human things to do. It is easy to let myself "off the hook" and when I do the difference I am trying to make moves a little further away. It is easier to create reasons "not to" than take a stand. The first reading of the Source was a page turner, not a "who done it", but a "path to it"; it was the counter to my excuses. It was a quick read that produced a sense of empowerment. I have reread "The Source" several times; each reading supports a sense of discovery in the book and me. I would highly recommend this book to anyone, it is extraordinarily valuable.
