Buzzword Soup
I bought this title because it was on the bestseller list and sounded like a good buy. However, after struggling through it I have to say it's poor at best. The book is sold on the strength of the authors' reputation as developers of the "corporate athlete" program. Unfortunately the narration comes across as trite, and self-promotional.
To me, the book seems to lack real depth of insight or compassion into the real issues facing readers in crisis -- except to see them as sell-through opportunities for other programs and products.
As an alternative to The Power of Full Engagement I would highly recommend The Breakout Principle and The Power of Now, two less commercial and more authentic works.

Read the Title - skip the book
This book is based on the important truth that energy management is much less important than time management. However, it tries to cover so many areas that it fails to deliver on any of them.
The language of this book has been completely infiltrated with corporate buzzwords that many potentially profound thoughts are clouded. Words like "Personal Inventory," "Spiritual Alignment," "Value Statement" remind me of much of the meaningless double-speak found in the corporate world today.
If you're interested in managing your physical energy, read "Body for Life." If you're interesed in improving you're emotional energy read any of Tony Robbins books. If you're interested in renewing yourself spiritually, comb the great leaders of your tradition. On the other hand, if you truly value your time, skip this book.

It works if you try it.
I listened to this book, and more importantly, I tried implementing the principles taught. After only a week I find that I have much more energy, especially when I get home. This has directly affected my attitudes and relationships for the better. I'm listening to it for the fourth time now. But remember this is one of those annoying books where you actually have to take action after you've read it, or it won't do you any good :>)

Excellent and practical advice
Very practical advice! Helps put in practice all the things that we would like to do. Books from Covey, etc. tell you what to do. This book tells you how to do it. That's the beauty of this book compared to the rest.

Get Energy, get success
I have listened this book for two times. Iam an english student in mexico and also an entreprenur, i agree with the authors, you must to have energy to acomplish your goals. For me it is a good book, no magical of course, but if i can put in practice some of the advise i have learned, the book is paid.

Good addition to any library
Some truth in all of the other reviews. All books on productivity share some ideas, theories and principles. The Power of Full Engagement offers a different perspective on some of those ideas.... If you've been exposed to the principles that enhance physical fitness, specifically, repeated stress followed by time for recovery, this title will make sense! The authors introduce how this same principle could/should be applied to other aspects of our lives.

Workaholics Beware!
The power of Full engagement is for you. It really helps to recognize the value of replenishing our souls and ourselves in order to bring out our best. We tend to overlook the role that this plays. Loehr/Schwartz not only emphasizes this, but really gives pointers on how to manage your life so that you can optimize your energies, producing even better results than you would see from just working harder. I had heard about this book for a few years before I actually read it. I am sorry that it took me so long to getting around to reading it. It was a powerful book, and will continue to be in my re-read list in the future.

The Power of Full Engagement
This was a terrific book. Initially, I thought it would be another business, time-management, how-to bore, but far from it. The authors' provide a full-spectrum guide on how to maximize physical, mental and spiritual energy--rather than just squeezing out more minutes in the day. The case studies were varied and allowed listeners to see their issues manifested to one degree or another. I was also impressed with the authors' sense of empathy for the sorry state of our unfulfilled lives. Rather than just professional self-development, this should be taught in public schools to help create better citizens.

Don't waste your money
This book is the worse i have read. Its all about self promoting and the authors don't appear to be sincere. It seems like they don't come to the point but instead talk around the problem. I was very dissappointed.

great but not the full book
Great stories and insights, but I did not notice when I purchased it that this was a shortened version of the book. I felt frustrated when it ended: I wanted more!
