5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth reading, acting upon, and sharing, April 7, 1999
By Dick Thomas (rltvideo@voicenet.com) (Doylestown, Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews
'This Is Your Life, Not a Dress Rehearsal' inspires the reader to become pro-active about his life and then provides the techniques and tools to change the course of his life. For years I had allowed myself to drift down the river of life allowing the current to control my course. Jim Donovan has shown me how I can take control and change the course of my life. This book provided and provides me with many insights into discovering who I am and the means to become who I would like to be. For instance, after reading Chapter 2, I discovered how I limited myself by beliefs I had acquired as a child. Beliefs that were not true. From Donovan I learned how to challenge those beliefs, those false limits, and remove them. Is this book worth it? Absolutely. In fact, I have given away at least a half dozen to friends. Many read it the same day and called me to tell me how much it meant to them. I have used this book as a study guide for an adult Sunday School class. And I continue to use it on a daily basis.

4.0 out of 5 stars Touches on all the important subjects, May 11, 2002
By A Customer
this book is good and easy to read. Having read a few books on self-improvement, I recognized a lot of important subjects. The author presents these in an easy-going way and really does his best to build the reader up along the way.

So why only four stars? The answer lies in the word "touches" in the title of my review. The book doesn't contain all that much text. The author skims past about 50 subjects, each of which deserver a book in their own right.

The again, you want to improve your life, (probably) not get a Ph.D. in psychology. So, if you feel that you could do with some wise and credible words from a man who's been there, go ahead and buy this book. If you, after reading, feel that you're still stuck in a rut, then look further, cause there's a lot more in-depth material out there.
