5.0 out of 5 stars Life-changing reading!, June 2, 2004

By page 20, I knew this was a very special book. Rhonda has a familiar voice, speaks like a friend who cares enough to give it to you straight, and gives us the very rare of gift of realistic action-oriented solutions and freeing thought processes. One particular gem turned a big switch on for me, and I've made tremendous, brave steps that in turn (and this is the best part) have given all of my relationships a new strength and comfort level. This is the first book I've read where the insights stay with you. There's no going back to a life of fear and worry. Thanks, Rhonda. You're a treasure.

5.0 out of 5 stars I changed my life!, June 16, 2004

I feel like by the end of this book Rhonda (Britten) was the best friend that I had never met. She hits to the core with facing the fears that hold each of us back. This is, honestly, the only book that I have read, to the end, and applied to my life. She goes beyond the normal "self-help" books. She makes you do the work and that is why it is successful. Her story of facing fear is most heartening and inspirational beyond belief. Her life's tribulations are what made her today. To be able to take the fear out of your life and use it to benefit your life is truly amazing insight! A "must read" for anyone that truly wants to be true to themselves and do what they really want to do - in all parts of their life! Thank you Rhonda, from the bottom of my heart.

5.0 out of 5 stars Only on day four, but so far, WOW!, February 14, 2004

By 

B-Man (Orlando, FL) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Change Your Life In 30 Days: A Journey to Finding Your True Self (Hardcover)

I am on day four of working through all of the exercises and this book has already surpassed all of my expectations. I am not sure if because of watching some of the Starting Over program, I can understand how to work through this book better than other self help books, or if I am actually spending the time trying to seriously consider how I live my life and how I would like to live my life, but regardless, I am finding this book very encouraging as well as challenging.

Putting all of this to practice will be the next challenge, but just looking for places in my everyday life where I am already experiencing successes or gaining confidence is helping me identify those areas where I can build upon or areas that I need to focus on or concentrate on improving.

I must say that it would be very easy in even these early pages to put the book down because Rhonda asks very difficult questions or calls you to really look deep inside yourself even if what you find is difficult to confront.

I suppose this book is not doing anything unique or surprising to those who deal with psychology as a profession or are well versed with self help books in general, but what I can attest to is that this book is to borrow a cliche, striking the right chord for me personally, which is important in that it may for you as well. If not, move on to something else. But, if it does challenge you to think about how you can change your life, then stick with it. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
