From the Foreword by Jack Canfield, Co-author, Chicken Soup for the Soul® and The Success Principles:
“By the end of this book and your personal exploration, you will see here you wait for life to begin. You will see that all the answers you need come from within. You will learn to stop hiding your magnificence and stop jacking around. You will become, as Kristen proclaims, “a fierce disruption of the ordinary!”
Robyn Spizman, New York Times Bestselling Author and well known media personality says:“Refreshingly vulnerable, witty and wise. Waiting for Jack feels like a conversation with your best friend over coffee. With an honest approach and take action message, Kristen Moeller motivates readers to make it happen. This book is a special gift!”What are you waiting for?
Do you find yourself waiting for the right moment? The ideal relationship? The perfect job?
Are you waiting for your “real” life to begin?
Do think that the gifts of life are right around the corner? That one day you will arrive and everything will be okay?
Do you endlessly search, yet never seem to find?
Through the sharing of authentic personal stories and profound life lessons, Kristen Moeller explores our pervasive human tendency to wait for life and to look outside ourselves for answers.
Too often we are “Waiting for Jack”—whatever or whoever “Jack” is. So we don’t try; we give up. We sell out and we forget who we are. We are afraid to succeed, afraid to fail, and afraid to say we are afraid. But as Wayne Gretzky said, “You'll always miss one-hundred percent of the shots you don't take!”
Waiting for Jack will inspire you to get on the path, move forward and take the shot. And. to remember that you don’t have to wait for Jack!

An Antidote for Self Help Addicts,
By Grady Harp (Los Angeles, CA United States) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE) (TOP 50 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Waiting for Jack: Confessions of a Self-Help Junkie: How to Stop Waiting and Start Living Your Life (Paperback)
Self Help books and seminars, groupies, internet chat programs, even expensive courses offered in every city across the country serve a good purpose. They encourage people to change their lives or approach to the world to make living more comfortable an fulfilling. But there are people whose book shelves bulge with book after book of 'authoritative resources' to guide the reader through changes that require a lot of time and commitment to programs, lists, charts to mark progress, etc. It all of that really necessary? Yes, for some people who cannot commit to professional help to make their lives workable these inexpensive and in many cases very well prepared programs provide assistance. Then along comes Kristen Moeller and in her very entertaining, very personal, and very well written little book WAITING FOR JACK and the concept of becoming a 'self-help junkie' puts it all into perspective.
Moeller's precis is straightforward: 'stop waiting for remedies for external change and simply start living your life'. Sound simplistic? Not in Moeller's witty and caring and warm hands. Sharing her own experiences and having the courage to expose her own vulnerabilities and expectations for someone to help her 'fix' her life, she shares how introspection and learning to love yourself is a viable path to getting off the john and just take on living inside your own body and life. It is easy to read and easy to absorb. And for people who constantly engage in self help programs, it is a blessing! Grady Harp, May 10

I'm not waiting anymore!,
This review is from: Waiting for Jack: Confessions of a Self-Help Junkie: How to Stop Waiting and Start Living Your Life (Paperback)
After hearing Kristen (she is an amazing speaker) speak at Author 101 University, I just HAD to get her book! "Waiting for Jack" is a page turner! Kristen grabs your attention from the beginning with her story about meeting Jack Canfield for the first time and how that meeting allows for a new path to unfold in her life. However, this book is about more than one "Jack" and you will be entertained and inspired as Kristen takes you on a journey of self discovery and the opportunity to ask yourself this question, "What am I waiting for?".
I highly recommend this book to anyone who feels stuck...or feels like they are waiting for something or someone to give them the next step in their lives. "Waiting for Jack" will change your life. I'm not waiting anymore!

Waiting for Book #2,
This review is from: Waiting for Jack: Confessions of a Self-Help Junkie: How to Stop Waiting and Start Living Your Life (Paperback)
Waiting for Jack took me through Kristen Moeller's personal journey of overcoming her troubled young adulthood riddled with addiction and self doubt eventually reconnecting her to emotional, physical and spiritual well being. It is rich, intelligent and alive with humility and courage. In her ability to express the beauty of her humanity, Kristen shows us that self acceptance and a grateful life are available to us all, NOW. In seeing such a conscious and practical book from a first time published author, Kristen is sure to become an influential teacher and leader in the field of personal transformation.
