The external enemy is the societal pressure exerted by the "mediocre masses," while the internal enemy is the self-oppression born from our own doubts and fears.The journey to personal freedom, Burchard asserts, is won by declaring our intent and independence. This requires us to step into our personal power, confront self-doubt, and navigate daily distractions until we achieve full victory. By invoking the revolutionary voices of the past who chose freedom over tyranny, Burchard inspires us to shed our fears and reclaim our lives.In this transformative book, Burchard presents nine declarations for personal power and motivation.

Amazing book

Before Oct of 2014 I knew nothing about Brendon Burchard. Then I saw him speak at an event in Phoenix Arizona. When he came on stage the crowd erupted as if it were a rock concert! I thought, wow, who is this guy? Over the next hour and a half I listened as Brendon not only spoke on the topic of practical steps to build online businesses but on inspiration and methods to achieve high performance. He was very impressive and mind you I don’t say that lightly as I am not easily impressed, not by a long shot. So I stared to check out some of his material and could easily see that he deeply cares about not only the quality of product he puts out but more important the impact it has on those who come in contact with his material. Being a student of the self-help genre I when I received notice that his new book “The Motivational Manifesto” was coming out I again was a little skeptical.Brendon will tell you he has a belief in over delivering and I tell you he has unequivocally over delivered in this book. There are no personal stories by Brendon though he has several compelling stories that have occurred in his life. There are no stories of the experiences of other people overcoming various trials in life. There is no selling of any of his programs or anything about building online businesses. This volume is simply, plainly and so succinctly filled with line after line of different way of thinking. A different way of looking at life. When referencing his research to write this book he talks about studying history’s revolutionary writings and scholars. Although you certainly get the tone of the historical rhetoric it is not in such a way as to rally the war cries of the populace or the government per se but more so for rising above mediocrity and taking charge of one’s own life! It is about forging ahead in life with the God given talents we are all born with but forgot or killed along the way.Now, before anyone starts rolling their eyes about how gushy this review is sounding, I’ll remind you of my statement earlier. I am not easily impressed. Raised the son of a career Army veteran and me being a retired Navy submarine vet I’ve seen and heard from my share of impressive leaders in life and can smell a fake a mile away. Having a military mindset I am naturally skeptical of everything and assess everything from the angle someone has with the message or product they are selling every time. I’ve read many books in my life time (leaders are readers) and will read many more as long as I am graced to continue walking on this earth. The Motivation Manifesto is without a doubt in the top two for me. A book that will remain in my library and get reread at least once a year and reference whenever a need for inspiration or motivation arises.
