Product Description

Review

Dr Phil McGraw, known as 'Dr Tell-It-Like-It-Is' on Oprah Winfrey's Change Your Life show discusses self-esteem with a whole new positive approach, proposing a plan to become your best self rather than using low self esteem as a crutch. It is time to say goodbye to the nagging fears that keep so many of us from fulfilling our potential and see how endless our possibilities are. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Product Description

'Oprah' show resident relationship expert tackles the notions of self and self-esteem and how our reliance on them as excuses has eroded their role as qualities.

5.0 out of 5 stars Does not get any better than this, 29 July 2005

"scottydunleevy" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Self Matters: Creating Your Life from the Inside Out (Paperback)

I am a big collector of self help books but this one has probably influenced me more than any other.
Dr Phil is so straight to the point, without any jargon to confuse you. He gives you good examples from his own life and gives you good advice to complete the exercises. Once you have completed the exercises you will have a clear focus of who you are and why you think the way you do.
This book is simply brilliant, straight forward, easy to read and incredibly useful so if you feel you need to get your life together, this the best place to start

5.0 out of 5 stars Helped me get my head together, 28 Oct 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Self Matters: Creating Your Life from the Inside Out (Paperback)

At the risk of sounding like one of those gushy 'oh!, it saved my life'-types, I really can't rate this book highly enough. By reading it and working through the self-analysis exercises it contains, I managed to find events in my past that have shaped my life up to the present day.

The book works by making you consider the impact of those events and then deal with the negative element of them.

If you feel that your life is a bit off the rails, I hope you get some of the benefits I have experienced should you choose to get this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Self Matters, 28 Feb 2011

Scarlet - See all my reviews

This review is from: Self Matters: Creating Your Life from the Inside Out (Paperback)

I have only started this book and already I am finding amazing things on each page, I am already highlighting lots on my kindle ipad app and cannot believe i am highlighting so much so soon, it really is amazing from the start, i am eager to complete this book because I am literally that person in the book that Dr. Phil wants to help so much. I will review again when I have finished but just to say at this stage, it sure is a fabulous gift to yourself to buy this book.
