Review

"I've watched Tyrese for many years - I've watched him succeed; I've watched him fail; I've seen him as a beneficiary of serendipity, and I've watched him suffer at his own hand. And in the recent years, as we've become friends, I've witnessed Tyrese Gibson learn how to get out of his own way as he wrestled his destiny from the fickle hands of fate." --Will Smith

Book Description

Actor, singer and songwriter Tyrese Gibson crafts an inspirational memoir filled with every emotion and life experience one could possibly imagine. Pairing honest and revealing personal stories with reflective questions based on his extremely popular online messages.

5.0 out of 5 stars Self empowerment 26 May 2011
By Xai Faucher
Format:Hardcover
Until I completed this book, I never truly knew how I disabled my life by simply making up excuses as to why I couldn't do something. Tyrese with his open, frank view on his life enabled me to look at my life and see where I was preventing growth, take a step back and positively redirect myself towards being the best that I can be and not be scared of failing.

For a private man he opens up himself selflessly for his readers betterment, just enough to allow us to understand why he wrote this book and to direct us to believe in ourselves and do something positive about increasing what we already have and to not be satisfied with anything less. He holds enough back of himself in the book to hold onto his privacy, but still shows he is human and cares about his fans.

I have and do recommend `How To Get Out Of Your Own Way' to all of my family and friends and indeed strangers and now I am recommending it to you! You don't need to be going through a troubling period in your life to get something out of this book, you simply may be curious, but you will want to alter your life once you have read it.

Once I opened it I found it extremely difficult to put it down! It was very easy to read and the messages were clearly written and defined on each page. It helped me and it WILL help you if you read it and allow it to.

I personally thank you Mr Tyrese Gibson, for without your book I believe my belief and trust in my abilities would have some cracks hidden in them in waiting to expand, as I would have been more prone to finding excuses to block my progression.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic 10 April 2011
By Heather Rosemary
Format:Hardcover
Just had to say that this book is one of the best books I have read. Right from the beginning it made you feel that you were being spoken to and touched your core. In places it made your heart stop and you could relate to the deep emotions within the words. It is a book that makes you really stop and think about your own life and were you are and how you got there and where you want to be. It opens up your passion to move on and live your life. So true and real it ripped your outer layers away and left you raw in a state of deep realisation and ready to rebuild your life as the book say Getting out of your own way! Totally brilliant thank you Tyrese for helping so many people in such an honest straight forward heart felt way.

5.0 out of 5 stars Phenominal book 2 May 2011
By Obara
Format:Hardcover
As Tyrese, the author said that this is not a book but his life, you can experience his life first. Then, there are so much to learn from every single line you read. It's like Bible you have it with you, you read it again and again, when you need some guidance you just open it. I am grateful to have this book and hopefully more people will buy this in any forms available.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding 17 July 2011
By rubydoo
Format:Hardcover
When the delivery came all I did was make a jug of ice tea and get comfortable so I could devote time to reading.
I started reading a little before 8am, and when I got to the last page it was after midnight.
Some of the deeper issues need repeated reading, so the impact of the words could truly sink in. Some parts were unexpectedly very emotional.
Having listened to Tyrese's music for years I gave one of his first CD's another listen, and the words now resonated some of the emotion from the book; the love, the pain, the hurt.
I'm so glad I made the decision to buy the book now, rather than wait for the paperback version, and I've purchased 8 more copies for my brothers and sisters.
Thanks to Tyrese, he didn't have to put all his private personal business out there, but his sacrifice of privacy is a greater reward for sharing his experience with others.
Tyrese is very active on Twitter, and I have followed his inspirational tweets for the past few weeks, now the book is published he is not finished inspiring people. Truly gifted.
I look forward to his next book - Manology - written with Rev Run, and the messages contained therein, and the new album - Open Invitation, coming November 11.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tyrese Gibson: How to get out of your own way. 17 Jan 2013
By Naitty
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I've read this book 4 times, it is such a heart wrenching Eye Opener. You would never believe some of the things that this Man has experienced, let alone how He is able to utilise everything he has learned to become the Beautiful Soul he is NOW.

I LOVE HIM & THE BOOK.

BLESS
