Editorial Reviews

Review

This is a book that rings true as a desperate cry for help. And the help is in these pages. Boffey has written with integrity and tenderness. Reinventing Yourself is practical, infinitely useful, full of promise, and simply joyful reading for anyone on their healing journey. -- Sidney B. Simon, Professor Emeritus, Psychological Education, University of Massachusetts.

From the Back Cover

Reinventing Yourself is about becoming the person you want to be. In this book, Barnes Boffey explains a deceivingly simple, but fundamentally different, way to understand how to make profound changes in your life and shares how to take the small, empowering steps that lead to personal transformation. Reinventing yourself is a process of learning to feel loving, powerful, playful, and free in even the most difficult situations. It is about discovering how you can be the solution to the problems in your life.

5.0 out of 5 stars An insightful approach to life improvement., September 30, 1999
This review is from: Reinventing Yourself: A Control Theory Approach to Becoming the Person You Want to Be (Paperback)
Barnes Boffey provides an extremely personal and insightful view of the process of "reinventing yourself." His comments arise out of his training and expertise in the field of Reality Therapy, in which he has served as a counselor and consultant. Boffey provides rich insights into the necessary components of change. His points are emphasized with personal stories of his own development and change throughout his life. This book is a wonderfully written, intersting comment on life change. It is a refreashing addition to this area of the literature.
