"Books are no substitute for living, but they can add immeasurably to its richness."
- May Hill Arbuthnot
Reading Mike Grogan's books makes you feel like you got a good old friend in him, teacher, guide and traveller mate, who walks what he talks, an overseer through the journey of discovery ourselves and still humble to recognize the minuses we all have, but proud for the lessons we got from life, willing to share the knowledge and experience to the others thirsty of getting to know what a wonderful life we can get and how to get the best of it, without doing harm to ourselves or to others, lending a helpful hand so we can prioritize our values and making progress with baby steps but firmly advanced to change our habits and prove that is always time and space for much more health, good, fun, happiness, wealth and satisfaction.
Thanks for your good work, Mike!
Our best wishes for success and may your dreams come true.
From George Mindrila and Virginia Ticman Mindrila, with love, from the Philippines!

"To change yourself and to change yourself to a better YOU, there are two totally different things."
- German proverb.
"The Messi Way" book of Mike Grogan challenges you to take the 33 days journey to change your habits, but not alone. The vivid examples of the three heroes, we can call them so, also Mike's style of "don't worry, I know that is not easy but is possible, don't give up and give one more try", sincerity of admitting that we aren't perfect, and the way he makes the things look simple, these are just a few reasons that makes you read and re-read this book and find out that the answers are in within ourselves, just need to balance our childish-adult way of considering life we decide to live and enjoying it by getting the best of it, not only for our benefit but for others around us.
To be sincere, I started reading it with the appreciations in the introductory part, then the invitation to the Philippines part (that I used to read for my wife in English and Tagalog to keep in our mind the reasons for what we have to be proud of being Filipinos or got married to a Filipina/ Filipino), then I did the normal reading of the 1st chapter, then the 2nd chapter and so on, with Mike "shoulder to shoulder "...
It's true that reading an e-book is a modern way for our time, but every time I can hold a book in my hand makes me feel better, making notes, easy to carry and to share and most of all the smell of new or old books is something priceless...
Keep on doing what your heart and soul is speaking, our dearest brother, warm and big hearted friend Mike!

My new workbook!
Mike has asked me to do so many things (for my own good, I'm pretty sure) that I felt I went back to being a student! Come to think of it, reading The Messi Way really confirms that I am, and will be - forever. The subject? Knowing and Mastering Myself 101.
Since I really need that challenge at this particular point in my life, then I'm taking it on. I'm going on that 33 Day Challenge! I know it will not be easy - quitting the wrong people, and choosing a Success Partner fill me with dread. But I'm already a practitioner of most of the TRANSFORM habits, so I believe I will win this challenge. To be sure of success, I'm thinking the severest punishment I can mete out on myself (and the most wonderfully amazing reward!).
Wish me luck (and a winning system) Mike!

I am grateful to be one of the first readers of this book. I can say that this book was send to my email with purpose. Recently, i lost my mom and her lost brought emptiness in me, one way to ease my pain is by reading this book. The title itself is intriguing, i was tempted to escape pages in order for me to find out the meaning of MESSI..but the topic in every page is very interesting. The quotes that were included made this book unique. I will let my son and my other members of the family read this book so we will be sharing our experiences as we go along with our 33 days challenge. Mabuhay mike!

Mike's works are really wonderful. I first read 7 reasons why Filipinos will change the world and it opened my eyes that our qualities can make a change and impact beyond what I imagined. As I read the Messi Way, it feels as if I was talking with a friend while strolling in a huge park. The book speaks to you straight forward manner. It let's you see where you are now and give you points to take in improving yourself. You'll never be the same once you read this. It's a must read book. I also highly recommend this book to the young adults out there struggling in the real world. This is your book.

Mike is the best coach I have ever met. His wisdom continues to influence me, and I am thrilled to have a book that captures his message. The MESSI Way is a racy relevant first read that inspires, demands and walks you through the journey of successfully forming healthy habits. Its application will translate into improved projects, plans and people – myself included. It’s a study guide into personal transformation. The MESSI Way will be read multiple times: readers will savour the excellently illustrated wisdom quotes and practice his proven methods for a lifetime!

A must-read book, it discussed all the possible ways to ‘Change’ physically, emotionally, and socially. Not only as an individual but for a better person. Mike Grogan, such an amazing author, the one who believes that everyone can change or transformed into a well deserves human beings. This book proves that nothing is impossible if you want to change for a better you,,,you should start reading ‘The MESSI Way’.

More than stating the fact that habits define us, Mike Grogan's "The Messi Way" unlocks our ability to gain control in redefining ourselves through the power of habits. This book is not just intended to entertain or inform - it has been engineered to bestow on us the ability to bring out the change that we always wanted through its 33-day challenge. The Messi way is not just a book; it's a fellowship towards self-discipline and self-improvement.

I am very thankful to be one of the first readers of this book , The Messi Way. I find this book so inspiring. When you start reading it, you do not want to stop till you finish, because every Chapter has its lessons to learn, whoever you are, what status of life you have.
I will surely recommend this book to my family and friends. Thank you Mike for the opportunity, and for writing this book for all of us

This book i read it at once.. Each page had quotes of wisdom that energized me to continue. Mostly the writing of Mike, his use of the dialectic method made me feel comfortable and accepting his coaching through the pages... Complete connection of author and reader.. 'Are you still with me?' he wrote.. Yeah, for sure, wanting to learn more how to nail our day starting from early morning and complete the habit challenge... Definitely worth reading and applying.. Doable!

The words are so powerful in each page. A must read if you are serious about change you’ve been wanting all your life. SIMPLE, PRACTICAL, DOABLE and REAL. Thousand words might not be enough to describe how I feel after reading it. I just hope I had this book earlier in my life. Thank you Mr. Mike Grogan for your amazing work. You are truly an inspiration!

Mike's approach to helping us in our struggle to change is very straighforward. This book is written clearly and is very direct to its purpose. Looking forward to finishing the 33-day challenge which I am about to start and thank you for the 'tough love' incorporated in this book which is really spot-on!

This is a very conversational guidebook. I especially like how Mike Grogan put emphasis on morning rituals as a powerful step of starting each day right and as a habit-forming push towards being extraordinary. I'm excited to make changes to a better me using The MESSI Way in the next 33 days (and beyond). Read this and be ready to change to a better you too.

WARNING: This is not an ordinary book, it’s more like a map towards a complete transformation.
Like a caterpillar that’s turns to a cocoon then turns to a colorful butterfly there will be some struggles along the way, this book teaches us where are we on that transformation and why are we going through it in the first place.

The powerful habit of morning ritual will revolutionize the way people achieve extraordinary success. Now, Mike’s patented MESSI Way will make it even easier and faster to succeed in anything you set your heart and mind on.

May 11, 2018Habits changing is challenging but Mike shows achievable strategies with realistic examples to transform YOU. When I started reading the first page, I stopped as I was completing a big project. Yet, I skimmed it again until I reached last page. It is an amazing self-help book! So I meticulously read each page again…… Thanks for sharing advanced copy of your book, ‘The Messi Way’.
May 16, 2018
Thank you for this book. I honestly don't know what to write. All i can think of is that this book is a big help to me especially that i have always been a failure in achieving change I can't seemed too sustain what ive started and that's really frustrating.
Thank you Sir Mike. Truly thank you.

Thank you Mike!
I enjoyed reading this book. It gave me the tool to tackle the difficult task of being proactive in my self-improvement. Being dyslexic, I have always been tough on myself and always trying to gather the courage to face my fears. I have always tried being honest with myself but fear has prevented me from doing things that I want to accomplish.
Again thank you.
