From recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "One of the best self help guides ever published. At its core is the simple practice of "turn it around". Changed my life profoundly."; "Byron Katie has a fabulous way of taking her own life struggles and turning it into a life lesson for all of us. She has a way of writing that just relates to many people. I appreciated the message that in most cases it's easier to blame others for where we are at in our lives; It's harder to look deep within and figure out what we need to do or change to create the life that we want."
