Reviews

Cheryl, USA, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I believe that one of the best places to begin is by acknowledging that there is an opportunity for improvement in oneself.This was a thought-provoking read, and had to be read with much care. And now that I've reached the end of it, I can confidently state that it was a joy to read, and I know I will revisit it again and again.The author intertwines the text with instructive anecdotes from his life at various points, which is also helpful. In general, I like this book, and it opened my eyes to how simple it is to make positive changes and accomplish one's goals in life. This is a book that I will suggest to everyone who is feeling trapped at any stage of life.
JP, USA, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ While this book is aimed primarily toward women, the author educates and encourages anyone wishing to become un-stuck. What's the secret? The author outlines a Progression, starting with clear focus on your greatest loves, accomplishments and hopes or goals. He then shares profound insights about positive and negative mindsets (researchers find our minds deflect positive news or experiences like Teflon and grip negative ones like Velcro!) and how to effectively shift from negativity to positivity (smiling helps -even if it's forced by holding a pencil between your teeth!). He shares recent scientific and psychological findings and longstanding nuggets of wisdom to help you shift and reinforce a new mindset. He continues with more important topics including how to cultivate gratitude, create new habits (starting with micro habits to gain momentum) in both diet and fitness and how to increase your social health to avoid loneliness and isolation. Sage wisdom, real empathy and energetic coaching. I recommend this fast and easy read!
Gary, USA, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐The people stories kept me interested and the suggested exercises made it practical. The three pages on how to stop eating emotions was worth the read. There are many diet suggestions that make sense. The book was about more than I thought it would be. I enjoyed it.....
Johnny, USA, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This book provides many practical self help tips and is a great read. Having friends and family dealing with anxiety and depression, I'm always looking for new ways to help and deal with life's stresses. Wonderful author and highly recommend.
Beth, USA, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect reminder to start small and focus on what I can control(myself and my attitude about my environment)! I needed this book in this moment.
