Product Description

Product Description
From Dr. Phil, the No.1 New York Times bestselling author of Life Strategies and many others, comes a plan for coping when life throws a curveball. It's one thing to know how to manage the day to day turbulence, but another thing all together when you are faced with a potentially devastating crisis. In Real Life, Dr. Phil explores how to take control in the face of these life-altering events. With his trademark calm, he divides up these events into 7 categories: Loss; Fear; Adaptability (or lack thereof); Physical Health; Mental Health; Addiction;Existential Crisis. Any one of these can feel like the end of the world, but Real Life teaches how untrue that is. Chapter by chapter, Dr. Phil addresses each crisis and offers real guidance for how to get through it. He identifies the different problems that can arise during these trying times -- plans have to change, emotions run high, indecision can strike during a time sensitive problem -- and shows how to navigate each of those issues and more. Real Life teaches how to be prepared for those extreme moments, but it takes you through the process of what to do if you are caught with your guard down.The lessons in this book are difference between coping and mastering a problem, even on the worst day of your life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Dr Phil - a great addition to his books, 29 Jan 2009
By Ms. Janet Sackman "Janet" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is very different to any other Dr Phil books that I've read (and I've read all of them) in that he considers specific events that you may or will come across. So it's not another "course" as such, which I was quite surprised when I first looked at it. The section on grief and grieving is particularly moving and helpful; it certainly resonates with a lot of my experiences of grief and would be helpful to read in preparation for what losing someone close could be like - without resorting to the classic 'stages of grief' model. So, it's something that you can refer to in anticipation of major events, rather than sit and work through as his other books have been structured (e.g. Life Strategies, Relationship Rescue, Family First etc).

It's good to read some of his own experiences in amongst the suggestions and advice. Thanks Dr Phil!
