According to bestselling author Alan Weiss, success is a combination of opportunism, very disciplined work, luck, timing, and ignoring most advice. In other words, it means striking out on your own, original path to success. In Million Dollar Maverick, he explains that entrepreneurs don't take advice, they create value and then monetize it. They do what they love and are great at and find a way to sell it to people. They do not--contrary to "conventional wisdom"--chase money. They attract money. And most of all they think differently, act decisively--and, if talent and timing are with them, succeed quickly. Drawing on over thirty years of experience as a consultant, speaker, and global expert, Weiss shares his story and "Million Dollar Tips," not found in any of his other books, to help entrepreneurs gain influence, build confidence, and develop the critical thinking skills they need to discover the inside track to rapid success ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Dimensions | 6 x 0.5 x 9 inches | | Edition | 1st | | Isbn 10 | 1629561266 | | Isbn 13 | 978-1629561264 | | Item Weight | 14.4 ounces | | Language | English | | Print Length | 210 pages | | Publication Date | June 30, 2016 | | Publisher | Routledge | ## Images ![Million Dollar Maverick: Forge Your Own Path to Think Differently, Act Decisively, and Succeed Quickly - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51+AvlkEZbL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The First Sale Is To Yourself: Igniting Sustainable Entrepreneurial Success *by on Reviewed in the United States May 31, 2016* “Million Dollar Maverick” is written with wisdom and wit by Alan Weiss, PhD. a master storyteller and contrarian. The book is replete with metaphors and examples of growth mindsets to think differently, and practical case studies from his wealth of consulting and coaching experience to help entrepreneurs make their learning practical and actionable.I mentioned “Million Dollar Maverick” as a must read at a recent San Francisco Bay Area Consultant (BACN) meeting. Many of the consultants expressed a lack of confidence and self-worth in growing their solo practices. I suggested that reading “Million Dollar Maverick” might help them develop a healthy ego to guide self-promotion, face self-imposed fears by changing their internal narrative story building resilience, and shift from a poverty mindset to abundance thinking.The lessons learned from Dr. Weiss’s life story and world-renowned consulting career - successes and failures can inform and inspire all coaches and consultants who are driven by purpose and passion to achieve success and not strive for perfection. You may need to get out of your comfort zone and be provoked to change habits, beliefs and even values that may no longer serve you.Although Dr. Weiss has brilliantly created a wealth of intellectual property that has improved the lives and businesses of countless people, I will most remember the emotional impact he has had on me as a human being. Dr. Weiss’s advice can be tough for some, but has been a reality check for me when I need to challenge what I think is true which may not be. It’s my own internal killer GPS app!I have experienced Dr. Weiss’ humanity, grace, kindness and compassion remembering his admonition in the book that when we experience pain suffering is optional. Moving forward and thriving is a much smarter choice for health, wealth and happiness.Alan Weiss has created a growing community of followers who focus on their self-development to learn, grow and get better increasing their competence in creating value in order to help clients achieve desired results.You can join Alan’s community of the best consultants and coaches in the world. “Million Dollar Maverick” can help you navigate your business challenges, gain influence, and achieve success doing it your way with a little Weiss advice mentoring.Dr. Maynard BrusmanConsulting Psychologist & Executive CoachEmotional Intelligence & Mindful Leadership Consultant ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ the premise of the book is “a memoir covering what I’ve learned and how I’ve applied it to create great success and a wondrous l *by on Reviewed in the United States May 24, 2016* I believe, as the author explains in the introduction, the premise of the book is “a memoir covering what I’ve learned and how I’ve applied it to create great success and a wondrous life.” So, in an essence, I think, the audience of the book can go beyond consultants and even entrepreneurs. I haven’t finished the book, but I’ve enjoyed it so far.In terms of the contents, the book contains ten chapters on being different to stand out, losing the fear of failure, gaining influence, critical thinking skills, improving self-esteem, understand the difference between pain and suffering, control over our careers and being shameless in taking credits, effective use of language for business and life, examples of innovations such as “perpetual motion attraction machines”, and feeling comfortable in your own skin (e.g., no guilt, no fear).I think some of the unique and intriguing ideas (and experiences the author had based on these ideas) are abundance mentality, shameless promotion, and the four levels of existence.The book contains several mindsets that are very useful in understanding and applying author’s effective methods. Some of the ones I’ve found very interesting to know and apply in my own life are “we often face unexpected, inescapable pain, but we create our own suffering;” we need a self-esteem workout program on a regular basis, similar to a physical workout, we establish our doom or achievement loops, “if you find yourself debating things that are irrelevant in your current situation and success, you’re sliding back through open doors to previous levels,” and “we are often shocked into immobility by abject fears without basis or rationale. Hence, we can’t eliminate them and they self-perpetuate. We need to find the cause of our fears.”Also, I think, Alan Weiss’s Thrive on self-mastery and taking control of one’s own life would be a good companion to this book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Background *by on Reviewed in the United States May 23, 2016* I have most of A. Weiss' books on consulting. For his best textbook on the subject, I recommend his Million Dollar Consulting, any edition. This is a useful adjunct, but not the key textbook. I personally feel it provides more of a background into his thinking and philosophy, but for actionable specifics on a consulting practice, I'd go to the book mentioned above. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/28112667-million-dollar-maverick-forge-your-own-path-to-think-differently](https://www.desertcart.no/products/28112667-million-dollar-maverick-forge-your-own-path-to-think-differently) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-09-16*
