(What's this?)
I don't normally like self help books but this one is tolerable if taken with a pinch of salt. It won't magically transform your life but it has many simple pieces of common sense advice. It is well laid out to make it readable. I particularly liked the idea that addictions should be tackled 10% at a time and not 100% at a time.'Every little helps' is a common slogan that could be applied to giving up or cutting down an addiction of any sort. I know I have tried to give up all my bad habits all at once and it nearly killed me, so I like the idea of doing it a little bit at a time, day by day rather than slam bang, all at once! There is a little dwelling on our negative childhoods but the message is that it doesn't matter too much, so move on. Unless of course it was serious abuse or something like that which needs professional help. But it is a cheap and cheerful attempt to help you and me boost our self confidence according to our unique gifts. We don't have to be confident in everything,everywhere, everytime. We just need confidence in those situations into which we choose to go or not to go, ourselves alone. Arrogance can be a front for feelings of inadequacy, for example.

Self help books can be annoying or brilliant. Anything that improves quality of life is good in my opinion and while I do read them occassionally I am not the worlds biggest fan.
This is the improved version of a previously published book and it covers a subject which affects us all or someone we know.
I was pleasantly pleased to be honest. The format of the book was good and the advice contained within its pages gives the reader tools to use in everyday situations which are not only tried and tested but which work a treat.
If your looking for an indepth book with answers to the universe then there are better books going into greater detail for use out there. If your looking for something simple, something thats quick and easy to read and use with information you can apply to everyday situations then this is a good starting place.
The changes you can make to your life can be obvious and yet situations and stress saw you look past them this book lets you look and refocus your life and readjust your think. It is I think a good and worthwhile read and purchase.

Great, sensible approach to self confidence by a very experienced writer and presenter. You recognise yourself in the book: where does my negative sef-assessment come from etc. He has a very human and humorous approach. The book is very readable.
