As a recovering perfectionist, identified with Bronwen in what she had to say. I found myself nodding in agreement at many stages throughout this book.
I would say that it was like a pep-talk from someone who has trodden the path and come out the other side.
Sometimes, I found that the statements were very general and I would have welcomed some more specific examples form the author's life. Maybe this was too personal and too exposing to put in a book like this?
Despite this, I have many things highlighted and shall put them in my 'remember these' quotes.

My thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I've read my fair share of motivational books. Bronwen Sciortino lays the groundwork for jump-starting your life again. She helps you examine your negative, downward spiraling thinking and reprogram your thoughts and plan out a course for finding your way again..

Not all of us want untold riches. Some of us want better friendships and relationships with our family members. Some of us also need to learn to appreciate when they simply have enough.
Highly recommended!

I received a copy of this book by the author through NetGalley for an honest review. As I read what the book was about, I could relate to it. I oftentimes am so negative with myself and I do expect so much more from myself than I do anyone else. So I thought this book would help me understand why I did it. In some ways, I had already been doing some of the things I was reading. What I wasn't doing was realizing what was enough. I think for me my enough was based on everyone else and others always wanted more and more from me and I would try and try to give it to them. Reading this book, I could see the problems and wanted to just be enough. The book helped me to see what enough was for me. I printed off this quote in the book, "The world is waiting for you to become the magnificent person you were always supposed to be. You are enough. You are brilliant. Let yourself shine." So I am going to pay attention to myself, see whom I am supposed to become because I know it isn't striving to meet other's expectations anymore. When I become whom I am supposed to be, I am confident I will like myself and so will others because since reading the book, I realized when I couldn't accept myself, why would others.
This is a tool to help me stay on the path I want to go on. I didn't realize until after I read the book that is was meant for a younger reader. As women, we seem to have a knack for being hard on ourselves, berating ourselves, and thinking we have to do it all. I am far from young but this book is going to help me break the negative cycle I have lived with, and I think in my future I will have a much better relationship with myself. Is this a book that might change your life?
