Review. The tagline for Supercoach by Michael Neill boasts: “If Superman needed a coach, he’d hired Michael Neill.” After reading and reflecting on Supercoach, I would tend to agree. Supercoach is a concise and informative framework for getting the most out of life.

Each chapter in Supercoach riffs on one of Neill’s “Top Ten Secrets.” The secrets, paraphrased, are:

• The world is what you think it is.
• Well-being is not the fruit of something you do -- it comes from within.
• There’s nowhere for you to get to – you’re just here.
• What you decide will never impact you as how you handle the consequences.
• Every emotion you experience is a direct to a thought.
• You don’t have to do anything.
• You create other people by how you listen to them.
• You can ask for anything when you make it ok for them to say no.
• Financial security comes from the ability to procure it[money] when desired.
• There is never a good reason not to hope.

While many of the secrets are neither unknown nor new, they can have a profound impact if truly comprehended. For instance, instead of being stuck in decision-making paralysis for fear of making the wrong decision, what if a decision simply becomes a choice that is almost always reversible? Looking at it from this perspective removes much of the angst associated with decision-making.

In addition, Supercoach imparts information in a fun and entertaining manner. Neill sprinkles his writing with clever anecdotes and witty suggestions. I laughed out loud at the suggestion to order a pizza at a Chinese restaurant (to learn how to make a seemingly unreasonable request). I’m sure if one can do this one has truly “gotten” the lesson’s meaning, but it leaves me in stitches visualizing the confusion such a request would cause.

Supercoach is a terrific resource for living a fuller and more meaningful life!
