This review is from: What Stops You? Overcome Self-Sabotage: Personal and Professional (Paperback)

It takes courage to really look inside yourself and ask the "spirit you" what he/she wants and what it is that's stopping you from achieving your dreams. Is it fear of failure, fear of success, lack of focus, childhood issues, not being good enough or is it something hidden deep within? I am on a journey of self discovery and I want to feel whole and complete as I am, with added passion and belief in myself to continue to move forward. I want to stop being stopped.

This book was the catapult that shot me into another level of progress and joy. I was stuck in a job I didn't like, giving half way efforts towards a life I was wishing and dreaming about daily. I had lost sight of my life purpose and constantly felt like I would spin in circles without truly accomplishing anything significant. As I followed the character, Anna, through her struggles, I felt encouraged and I felt hope. I have integrated these lessons into my life and my days are now filled with everything I love. It wasn't easy and I had to take risks. I had to let go of the comfortable and accept that once I committed to my dream, magic would happen. There really is a way to free yourself from negative & limiting beliefs and to accept that you do deserve all that you dream.

This review is from: What Stops You? Overcome Self-Sabotage: Personal and Professional (Paperback)

In my seminars teaching people "how to learn" anything faster and easier, I've noticed thousands of initial, limiting beliefs like, "I freeze up during tests, I can't remember what I studied, I'm not good at learning news things,", etc.

When you want to change those beliefs or anything else in your life, personal or professional, the information and simple exercises in Darlene's book give you the "how" you need to succeed.

She shows you every human possible human emotion, how each one serves you and can hold you back at the same time.

When I first read her book, (I've read it twice now - it's that good), I jumped to the section in chapter 12, where Darlene guides you through a process showing that your "beliefs" are only one way of looking at something. Right away, it feels like she takes you by the hand and shows you how to change any limiting beliefs simply by seeing or hearing them differently.

This is one of those rare books that I love because it is so practical and easy to follow. It provides the "how" everyone needs to heal and literally gives you the blueprint to make the positive changes to create the life you really want.

From now on, I will include your book in the recommended reading in every coaching session or training I give.

Thank you Darlene. You've blessed the world with your heart-felt passion and passed on your wisdom in a way all of us can understand and use this very day!
