Emotional Bailout! : Nine Principles for Rising when Your World Is Falling by Cathy Holloway Hill is one of those books that hit me at just the right time in my life in terms of impact and receptivity to the message. Her message is one of internal change, and how you can change your attitude and mindset to move into places you never dreamed possible. Even though I've heard many of the items before, the overall package struck me as something I've let get away from me over the last year.

Contents:

Principle 1 - Who Are You?; Principle 2 - If You Think It, You Become It; Principle 3 - Think Again; Principle 4 - Clear the Clutter, Chaos, and Confusion; Principle 5 - From Vision to Victory: What You See Is What You Get; Principle 6 - Financial Literacy; Principle 7 - Lifelong Learning; Principle 8 - Support, Networking, Mentors; Principle 9 - Fueling Your Inner Fire, Keep Rising!; Appendix 1 - Learning Resources; Appendix 2 - Motivational Quotes; Appendix 3 - Income Earning Websites; Appendix 4 - My Personal Goals Worksheets

Hill approaches her message from the standpoint of the economy... how to come up with your own "bailout" to survive this particular recession we find ourselves in. Many feel trapped in situations where they have no control or can't make any changes to improve their position. Hill argues to the contrary. The principles she puts forth are framed to have you sit down, take a deep look at who you are and where you want to go, and then plan a detailed approach to getting there. History is replete with people who have come from normal or disadvantaged backgrounds, and have risen to accomplish things that the world looks at with amazement. You are no different, and learning the proper mindset can start you on that path and adventure.

Personally, I needed to hear the messages about vision and motivation. I've made the mistake of thinking about what I want, but not putting it down on paper and really thinking about how that would look and feel. Also, motivation has been lacking due to stress and health issues. Refocusing on these items have helped me launch a couple of dreams that I had always put down as "that'd never happen." There's no reason *why* it shouldn't happen to me, and it's up to me to make it happen.

For me, this was a great book that has already paid benefits. If you're willing to be open to change, I can't help but think it would do the same for you.

I suggest reading this book with a highlighter, and keeping a journal handy. Cathy does more than explain, she poses questions which require deep LISTENING. Cathy wrote this book based on her own experience. She describes her proven action plans that the reader can put into play immediately in their lives and see new results. Some of these suggestions may be new to the reader, and some will be much needed reminders.

As extra bonus, Cathy provides a resource section of links and additional learning materials to support the reader in their ongoing success.

Holloway-Hill offers realistic and meaningful principles/strategies to create immediate change and success in all areas of life. I feel alive and confident each time I open this book.

I must admit that I was skeptical because self-helps books are not something I typically read, but THIS book was the perfect combination of just enough but not too much. It opened my eyes to a lot of ways that I could help myself instead of waiting for a miracle to happen in my life. I absolutely believe if people would take the time to read it, the multiple steams of income section will truly have you thinking outside your box and comfort zone. Thank you!

I have been struggling for quite awhile with job loss, and my bad emotional mindset has destroyed my family relationships as well as so many other areas of my life. I have tears in my eyes right now as I'm writing this. Emotional Bailout gave me hope, encouragement, inspiration, and most importantly BELIEF in myself. The chapter on financial literacy and ways to generate multiple streams of income and ideas was my favorite. There is so much valuable information that I had never considered or figured out on my own. Cathy Holloway Hill is a God-send, and I want to thank YOU (if you're reading this) from the bottom of my heart for rescuing me from a miserable severe emotional crisis!
