5.0 out of 5 stars This author's is gifted, 22 Jul 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Reinventing Yourself: How to Become the Person You've Always Wanted to be (Hardcover)

I have read all of Steve Chandler's books and find them excellent. I take a lot of things I've learned from various sources and use them help me stay on track.

In this one I like what he says about 'people don't sing because they are happy - they are happy because they sing' and how you won't get inspired to do something until you are doing it. I love that. Whenever I feel regretful that I still didn't get around to my project I think of that, that I have to be actually doing it to get inspired and now I can report that it really works. I can't tell it the way he does, you'll need the book, it's witty and gets straight to the point so it's an enjoyable experience. I also like his 'Queen for the day' about the saddest story of all having people reward you with a limo' and a flash day out. In life, your sad stories don't usually do that - you're the also-ran who told it and got nothing, so when I'm feeling a bit whingey I think about Queen for the day - and aim for the limo' on merit rather than pity.
I like this man. Since reading '17 Lies...' I have not been able to see a person with a video camera without thinking of him - of the waste of the real experience in favour of the filmed one. There's a joke here about a tourist: when asked if he had a good holiday, he repies, 'I don't know, I haven't seen the pictures yet.'

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy reading, but very profound, 17 May 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Reinventing Yourself: How to Become the Person You've Always Wanted to be (Hardcover)

I've recently moved to Minnesota from Texas and decided I would take the opportunity to make more meaningful adjustments in my life. The title perfectly described what I hoped to accomplish.

At first, I found Steve's language too light and felt I was reading another 'rah-rah' book. I normally prefer the analytical writing of people like Scott Peck, but the more I read, the more profound I found Steve's message.

I found the chapter on the 'ladder of selves' quite interesting and put it to use not fifteen minutes after reading it with very good results. I've found it's helped me control my temper and provides me with a more balanced perspective.

I'm surprised Steve is not better known. I had never heard of him before this book and truly hope he gains more exposure.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good for business. Questionable for relationships., 8 Jun 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Reinventing Yourself: How to Become the Person You've Always Wanted to be (Hardcover)

I read this book with an open mind and initially embraced its concepts. But after a few weeks I began to doubt their applications. It began to occur to me that this book is actually encouraging (under certain circumstances) its readers to suppress what Eric Berne would have described as the Child Ego state in favour of the Adult Ego state (to understand what I mean, you'll have to read "I'm OK, You're OK."). This may be fine in a business environment, but when dealing with relationships, it could potentially be counter-productive. Consequently, while i think the book has value, I think it needs to be read in conjunction with "I'm OK..." and more importantly, Firestone's "The Fantasy Bond" which is a book about the psychological defences we create in relationships. Chandler's book could very well encourage readers to reinforce such psychological defences. It may make you *feel* like a happy person, but the question would then be, "Are you living up to your true emotional potential, or are you just living in fantasy world?" You're choice.

Of course, I'm no psychiatrist and maybe I'm just missing something here, but I would think about what this book tells you rather than just take it at face value...
