5.0 out of 5 stars Refreshing and full of insight, July 6, 2007

Kathy Loves Books (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Find Your Courage!: Unleash Your Full Potential and Live the Life You Really Want (Paperback)

Having read my share of self help books -- as both business writer and eager consumer -- I'm seldom surprised by something new. But with "Find Your Courage," Aussie author Margie Warrell truly does offer a fresh take on moving beyond your limitations and going after the life you want. In addition to being very readable, well-organized and inspiring, Warrell's book (unlike so many in this genre) is also very practical -- drawing on her work as an executive coach and corporate speaker and offering thought-provoking exercises to make your dreams reality. Her twelve daily acts of courage, which build from taking responsibility and challenging your stories (my personal favorite!) to the courage to let go and be a leader are as applicable to a fulfilling personal life as to professional success, making this book useful to anyone looking to "live more boldly," as Warrel puts it. I know this is a book I'll come back to again and again and strongly recommend it.

This review is from: Find Your Courage!: Unleash Your Full Potential and Live the Life You Really Want (Paperback)

This is a fabulous book and should be viewed as a "workbook". The content and the exercises are strong. When you purchase this book, open it with the intention to pace yourself and do the exercises. Give yourself time to learn and enjoy, it is worth it. Finding your Courage will change your life, but it's up to you to do the work. I guaranttee if you do, you will find your courage. I have, and every day I get stronger and stronger.
