I will give my two bits here since I have his book.

I am not sure I totally buy into his business philosophy, but that may be because simply put, there is no one way to make the millions.

His way is one way, similar to the million of other titles on Amazon. There is someone who has sold over 400million USD worth of goods and he has written a simple short book covering his methods.

So who is right and who is wrong, the answer is neither. Both are right and wrong.

Yes, you definitely need a different mind set and way of doing things, but Dan Pena is only one way, not the only way.
