There are a zillion self help book, but for whatever reason, this one gave me HOPE.I noticed a difference in almost all aspects of my life when I began to do the thingsthat are discussed in the book, Sometimes when I started to feel down I would open the bookanywhere and read 1 page and I would feel better right away. It talked about doing thingsthat were do-able. And it feels so much better to feel good about life than sad. I lovedthis book so much I bought 3 used copies, and gave one to each of my sons and a friend.It helped both my sons and friend, still pending. It's the kind of book to keep at your bedsideand re-read whenever you find yourself needing a lift. Many situations in mu life have changedfor the better and I believe "the secret" coming into my life help'd me to make that happen.
