I have heard Jim speak, listed to his CD's and have read this book. Jim has a way of speaking to you via real life issues that we all encounter and compare to. He speaks straight and to the point, and that is what makes him and his words so powerful. Looking to get at your core issues and be willing to accept the truth.... Then Jim's Book or CD's are for you!

I have heard Jim Jackson speak several times and I always leave with a new perspective. This book has the potential to change your life, but the choice is up to you. Jim gives real life examples, easy to understand guidelines, and ask the reader thought provoking questions. Get ready to raise your self-esteem!! This isn't just some self-help, make you feel good about yourself book. It just shows you the power we all have to make the right decisions in life based on your passion, vision, and purpose.

This review is from: Power to Change (Hardcover)

I've read several self-help books over the past 20+ years and almost all of them sound the same. This book is different: Jim Jackson doesn't preach and he doesn't promise you a rose garden, unless you really want a rose garden! His message is clear, concise and pretty darn simple: You have the power to change your life. He tells you why you have the power and how to use it. I read the book (several times actually) and I'm not only changing careers, I've started my own company. I gave the book to the boss I'm leaving and he's changing his life too. I highly recommend this book.
