Turning Your Weaknesses into Strengths

This is a rare, life-changing book. "I'm afraid of getting hurt again". "When I look in the mirror, I'm never quite satisfied". "I can't stand criticism". "I'm always feeling tense and rushed". "I wish I could be happier". Do any of these sound familiar? Aren't they exactly the kinds of weaknesses that keep us from enjoying our lives to the fullest? This wise and compassionate book can help you confront these problems, perhaps for the first time in your life. Through a series of exercises, case studies, and personal growth techniques, you'll learn to analyse your weakness, and most imprtant, strip it of the power it has over you. "Making Peace With Yourself" is one of life's toughest challenges, but the rewards will be tremendous.

This book has Changed my life

I have had this book for years. I pull it out and refer to it often. It has given me the 'permission' to like myself and move on with my life. I highly recommend this book!

Really meaningful, helped to improve my life!

This is a terrific book--it's changing my life so that I'm becoming less critical of myself.I think I'm becoming a happier person because of it. I also found some of the reasons why I feel rushed, overworked, and tend to run late. Very eye-opening!!! This is a very compassionate book of loving and accepting oneself. I plan to read this book over and over! The authors write in a loving and caring manner. I am undergoing a lot of self-growth by reading books by these authors. I have read another book which they helped write, and I have just purchased my third book by them. I highly recommend this book, and other books which they have written.
