Think Big: Unleashing Your Potential for Excellence

The best book I've read for a long time, I keep quoting bits of it to everyone! I think I can relate to where Mr Carson started out, as I too came from a background where poverty was the norm. But, what I like about Mr Carson's book is the constant emphasis on the people who have helped him rise above all odds and a love of learning (education and reading). I think the way he gives back and encourages young and old is fabulous and know that if someone like him came to the high school that I attended with his think big message it truly would have been a life changing experience I highly recommend this book as it's not just another one of those self-development books (the cover did make me think that), it's also a book that teaches great lessons that only the University of Life can teach. I love the way Mr Carson has translated this into a very enjoyable and educational read.

Excellent, inspirational reading, in how to elevate yourself through hard work,faith and dedication. Thoroughly recommend to anyone seeking direction in their lives.

Fantastic book w just for young ppl

This book started slowly and was difficult to understand at first. However as I continued reading and learnt about how to THINK BIG and what each letter stands for it has helped me enormously especially in knowing my God given gifts and where I want to go next in Life!

Ben Carson first amazed the world with his story, Gifted Hands. In Think Big he starts to outline principles of success and the power of taking considered and calculated risks. he does not shy away from talking about the role of Faith in his life and the part that God has to play. It is an inspirational book but with a lot of advice and less of a "story" compared to Gifted Hands. Many young people i gave this to are inspired.

An amazing book, filled with such Wisdom and Knowledge. What a Role Model for a Mother. And also how he grew to defeat the stigma placed on his life. What an inspiration. I could not put the book down. Ordered Taking Risks. Excellent book. Love how the focus was not on him, but those who encouraged and believed in him. Didn't want it to end.

Brought this book for my granddaughter but ended up reading it first. very motivational i wish i was younger I would have pursued my dreams!!! highly recommended to anyone that has low self esteem or just needs that extra boost as it did for me. God bless you Ben Carson and your mother against all odds you both made it.

That book gave me the energy to (re) start devouring books but not in an excessive way.Commit yourself to instructions and wisdom .Whatever you, don't be impressed by your own wisdom but trust in God in everything that you undertake.Really moved me .one of the best book that I have ever read.Of course, there are some parts which are not essential and which sometimes have killed my interest but in its whole I will recommend it again and again without hesitation or thinking. Well done Sir. May God bless you.
