Pure Motivation - A Virtual Affirmation Generator
A Review of Pure Motivation 2.0
Grace Smith, Ph.D.
In today's fast-paced world, many of us can use a daily pick-me-up to enhance vitality and to help us grow. Insights Software's, Pure Motivation 2.0, combines personal computing with the motivational book, seminar, and audio tape industry
to enrich the environment where more than 70 million Americans spend their day -- in front of their computers.
Featuring more than 1,000 motivational quotes from 250 sources, Pure Motivation offers gems from business leaders, authors, scientists, politicians, sports figures, and other sages whose wisdom appears in three different ways:
1. as the initial quote of the day; 2. as mini-motivational vacations -- continuous streams of inspirational quotes; 3. as a screen saver -- quotations float across the screen and change during the day.
In addition, users can search the anthology of quotations by keyword, text, topic, or author and add their own favorite quotations to the data base.
Psychologists say that positive affirmations are one of the most effective tools in achieving high levels of personal development, enhancing both self-esteem and attitude. Pure Motivation's data base of quotations is positive, uplifting, and success-oriented, making it a powerful platform for self-help and inspiration.
More than entirely motivational, Pure Motivation 2.0 is also fun to use, protection for your monitor, and absolutely affordable. Although a few typos pop up now and
then and quotations from women and minorities are infrequent, Insights intends to correct these flaws in future versions. For the most part, students, teachers, parents, writers, motivational speakers, and business users can immediately benefit from a superb collection of beneficial quotations.
For those who savor affirmative passages, Pure Motivation's companion line, SuccessWare, features a series of software titles corresponding to single motivational books, each of which has sold at least one million copies. Each book has
a minimum of 365 passages and includes auto affirmations, screen saving, and initial quotes of the day. Priced at $14.95 per title, the line features books by Les Brown, Norman Vincent Peale, Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen, Dennis Waitley, and other inspirational speakers. Both Pure Motivation and SuccessWare can be ordered directly online via the WWW or by calling the toll-free number listed above.
