I Love a Good Self Help Book However…
This book was recommended to me. I really enjoy a good self book however I wasn’t super impressed about this book. It was a fictional story with lessons and a moral and I’m all for good energy and spreading joy. I just found the story a little sappy / cheesy. I liked the lessons and the idea behind it but I like a little more real, a little more solid and nonfiction/real life situations. That being said, if you need a feel good change your life fictional story- you’ll like this!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

has a good story and meaning behind it.
It kept me wanting to read more, it was funny but had a good story and meaning behind it. Not sure it really changed anything in my life, I was already putting my team before a lot of things like myself. My team is awesome and I will do anything for them. Down the road this might change, I thank God every day for what I have.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Rejuvenation
As we meander through life, we generally fall into bad habits, take things for granted, etc. This book is a wake up call to us to recognize what many of us have become and change our outlook/view of life; mostly our attitudes. It applies to our work, play, home situations, ad infinitum. Please get it into the hands of someone you care about who would benefit from reading it and recommend they read it SLOWLY. You know who you are, and you know who they are.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
