This book written by a successful Hollywood Producer contains excellent details for ALL areas of life and occupation The principals shared can be applied to all life situations and is very inspiring and motivating The book has allowed me to change several areas of my thinking and living to greatly improve my work and personal life Excellent book

This was a really good book It is filled with lots of wisdom and good advice What I like about the book is that it uses Biblical principles and real world advice I will definitely be reading this book again as I progress on my journey of success.

Excellent read for those of us raised in church and taught to believe that prosperity and success in the secular world is in opposition to spiritual success The Hollywood Commandments explains how the two can actually enhance each other and backs it up with scripture.

It s full of hard truths, inspiration and encouragement So many of us lack the various tools required to push us to the next level but Devon breaks it all down and shares his professional experience and knowledge Unlike many, despite his position in Hollywood and Business, he had a strong desire to help others recognize their gifts and talents and to speak to those who feel stuck between their Christian beliefs and success and to show them how to successfully maneuver between the two.

How to keep the faith while gaining success.
