I read this book when I was going through a particularly touch time in my life. It really helped me to change the way I think. That is the key to a happier, more fulfilling life. People don't realize how negative they can be. This book caused me to be conscious of any negative thinking and change it into a positive. It taught me how to take action now to get the things I want in life. I recommend this book to anyone wanting to change their life for the better. It even includes some questions at the end of each chapter that you can write in a journal about. Great book!
