The Miracle? Inspiring a Pessimist to Hope, January 14, 2008
This review is from: The Miracle of Optimism: Change Your Perspective, Transform Your Life. (Paperback)
I am an admitted pessimist, and have been for most of my life. That said, I still have some room in my cynical soul for a little hope and inspiration to push through, and Mr. Touhey's book has just the sort of sincere and comfortable quality to reach me.
Touhey's book is revealing, not only about his own familial and personal history, but also about the mistakes people often make in viewing themselves and the world. His lessons and exercises are totally effective in leading people toward a definite change in perspective, and his personal definitions of certain key self-growth ideas are just as helpful. His way of describing self esteem versus self confidence influenced me greatly, and inspired me to re-evaluate how I feel about myself and my actions in certain situations.
If you are a reader looking for a different way to view the world and yourself in it, The Miracle of Optimism, with its relatable storytelling style and its effective lessons and exercises is a book you need to read.

A Book to Live by..., January 27, 2008
This review is from: The Miracle of Optimism: Change Your Perspective, Transform Your Life. (Paperback)
When I purchased this book, I really did not know what to expect. What I did know was that I needed a guide to help me through my life's journey. This book has taught me so many lessons and has made me look at the challenges I face in a whole new way. It has taught me to let go of the anger I feel for my daughters rare disorder. A circumstance I had no choice but to be thrown into. I no longer dwell on the question that would melt my brian, "Why did God do this to my child"? I am now able to see the beauty in every little precious gift and feel a wonderful sense of Honor. I am so grateful to have The Miracle of Optimism. It really has given me a new Perspective and Transformed my Life...I am forever grateful, Thank you Mr. Kevin Touhey and Thank you for sharing your truly inspirational, beautiful family.
