Robb Hiller combines personal stories of overcoming cancer and his own success in business and personal coaching to share his success model titled The Power of 3. Without giving away too much of his model, The Power of 3 focuses on Ask, Activate, and Advocate. Within each of these three parts, there are additional acronyms that are shared. Of the three parts, I found Ask the most useful particularly as Hiller flips the questions to de-emphasize the "why" that has been an emphasis in so many recent books. I found Activate interesting but the accompanying acronym is quite long which makes it difficult to utilize easily. Advocate was a good reminder as well.

Hiller does mention faith quite a bit and assumes the audience is primarily Christian which given the book is published by Tyndale is probably accurate. However, if you subtract the faith element, the information and other examples is comparable to other self-help, business titles on the market and would be useful to anyone.

While interesting and providing some helpful information, The Power of 3 did not leave me with a "Wow! I need to do this right now!" Instead my reaction was more of a "There are some interesting things here to consider doing." The content provided isn't necessarily new but has been re-packaged in an interesting way.

I received a complementary copy of this book via NetGalley and Tyndale Momentum. I was not required to provide a positive review and all opinions are my own.

Self-development books are often quite useful in many people’s lives. I’ll admit I’ve read a bunch this year and The Power of 3 is one of my favorites! It’s quite an easy read and useful information for anyone face with difficulty.

The Power of 3 by Robb Hiller is based on his experience with overcoming struggles. While his struggle was being faced with three types of cancers, yours may not be as tragic. To be honest, my current struggle is increasing my business income so that I can expect more than what unemployment is providing.

In this book, Hiller explains that you can face challenges more effectively when you consider three things: ask, activate, and advocate. Basically, ask the right questions, activate the gifts you have, and advocate others to check in on you and hold you accountable to your own goals.

Of course, the book goes into further detail than that and uses his conversations with others and situations to make his points. I love that this book flows so easily and remains to the point. He even brings lessons he learned as a child to support these ideas. Hiller also expresses his dependency on God in this writing. As much as I agree with him, some readers may not and it isn’t quite expressed in the summary or cover info.

A digital ARC copy of The Power of 3 by Robb Hiller was provided by Tyndall House Publishers via NetGalley. Providing a review is not required, but I feel it’s helpful for the author and readers alike and my review is my own honest opinions. I give this book 4 out of 5 tiaras because I feel I’ve gained so much from this work and I hope to utilize these ideas in my own life. However, I did not really get how to find my authentic purpose, as mentioned in the subtitle.
