The 8 to Great book changed how I lead. Now I hand it out to my team members like candy.

Dave Tracey, CEO Xpress Group, Ontario

The 8 to Great advantage is like the weight room in sports. It helps each individual go into the game of life that much stronger and internally prepared to do their best!

Jon Rowberry, CEO Nextstep

I picked up 8 to Great with some reluctance, in part because I am always weary of yet another so-called self-help book from some unknown guru from across the pond. But I picked it up upon recommendation, determined only to skim and bin. Well, you can only but guess my complete shock when my surface skimming became more like deep sea diving and my life is now transformed. Strong words, I know, in such a short time period (I picked up the book twelve days ago) but the insights and wisdom are mind-blowing. My energy levels are like the good Lord Most High, and each day I chase the dream. Thank you for this bloody brilliant book. You have given me, and all of us, a priceless gift: the permission to be great.

Ray Lewis, Mayors Council on Youth, London

What really impressed me is the Three Promises that are made at the start of the book . MK has absolutely delivered on these three promises and I am seeing results every day since. I have started sharing some of these lessons with my two children and will be giving them each their own copy of the book. I am very grateful to the person who connected me to MK and her wonderful book 8 to Great.

Allan Dubyts, Canada

Bill Byrne, author of Habits of Wealth: 111 Proven Strategies that Will Change the Way You Do Business Forever

In my view, this book puts MK Mueller in the history books as one of the revolutionary thinkers of our time.

Avery Rose, horse trainer, Ocala, FL

Over the years Ive read and listened to many of the authors quoted in this book Ziglar, Robbins, Dyer, Waitley , Hill, Canfield, and on and on. Finally, now, I have something that I can actually use something that will let me practice these concepts daily to hone them into a newer ME. God bless MK!

William A. Brown, Nebraska

Reading 8 to Great helped me realize what I want out of life and that Im in control of getting it! In the past year Ive gone from blaming others to being grateful every single day. I am a better teacher, stronger basketball coach, and more caring parent thanks to the 8 High-Ways.

Jeff Hofeldt, head basketball coach and math teacher,

The worlds most practical text on the seemingly impractical topic of joy.

Barbara Shousha, M.Ed.

I finished 8 to Great this morning at 7:30, stood in front of my large bathroom mirror, and hummed a rock & roll song as I danced happily. Then I kissed the book with a great big smackaroo.

Bob Bosco, Ph.D., art professor, Creighton University

I have been reading the chapters in 8 to Great each night and finding such joy and excitement with each page. Thank you for the peace , serenity, and joy you bring through your words.

Amy Kilgren, middle school teacher, Michigan

As a Christian, this book has awakened Gods spirit within me. I can t help but turn each page and find not only hope in life, but a place for my dreams to live.

Deb Haget

I was allowing things from my past to prevent me from being successful. Now that I ve been listening to 8 to Great while in my car, Ive learned that when I take responsibility for myself and become honest with myself, Im able to move past things which I allowed to hold me back . I begin every day with my gratitudes and it starts me off and running. I am becoming the person I have dreamt of becoming.

Brian Bethel

8 to Great has really changed my life! I finished it in two days and then gave it to my parents to read. By going through the 8 High-Ways it has even brought our volleyball team together. We are playing much better together and are doing great!

Kari S., high school senior

Thanks to 8 to Great Im having my fourth and fifth grade students write three gratitudes in their assignment books daily. It is only the third day and already they are reminding each other to do it rather than me having to say anything. Im also playing gratitude games with my fifth graders, which they love and want to do again and again!!

Megan Abresch, elementary teacher

Reading this book is one of the best things that I have ever done for myself. Everyone can become a better person from using its systematic strategies.

Marcia Kay, Counselor

MK Mueller is a genius, and I literally owe her my life.

High-Way 5: Honest Communication
Send and Receive the Highest Truth

I met MK Mueller on a cruise I hosted in the Caribbean. It was an adventure sponsored by my website, where like-minded people could explore the philosophical jungles of time and space in between my every-other-day lectures. She was easy to recognize as somebody special. Kindness and enthusiasm shone from her eyes. Yet, admittedly, and I am not proud of this, I didnt grasp the depth of her understanding nor the passion of her conviction to change the world.

Reading 8 to Great has changed everything. Its not just a powerful book from cover to cover, revealing the greatest secrets to thriving within time and space that have ever been shared, but its lessons are made easy. Theyre taught in plain English by the kind of teacher we need. Someone real. Someone whos learned by trial and error. Someone skilled at telling stories with a message and humor. She has turned ancient wisdom into modern day tools, and above all, shes remained authentic, conceiving of and framing each of the 8 High-Ways in one of the most original presentations I have ever read.

Im often asked whats going to rock the world, psychologically, next. What, after The Secret , that is. And the answer is that people are going to be discovering the truth about their absolute power and their absolute responsibility for living their lives consciously and deliberately. People will be learning that The Secret was about far more than positive thinking or a way of looking at life; its literally how reality unfolds. The concepts of victimhood, failure, luck, and blame are about to be swept into extinction like the philosophical dinosaurs they are.
