Be present.

Decided to rate this book 5 stars because of how it made me FEEL. I finally feel more connected to the present moment instead of constantly living in the past or living in the future.

Changed a lot

The book that changed a lot for me, therefore I felt compelled to leave a quick review, something I rarely do.
Always had issues with living in the present - I was always overthinking, dwelling on the past and wondering about the future. Which is quite a horrible way to live. This book taught me, finally, how to let go a little. I am not perfect, but genuinely and honestly, I am more present in the current moment than I have ever been. Full marks.

Actually very good.

3 weeks after finishing this I felt compelled to leave a review as I am seeing good results from this in different areas of life. Think I will actually give it a second listen now.

Morning commute

I have been enjoying this book (for the 3rd time now...) on my morning commute. It had a powerful effect in setting me up for the day in a calm, collected, happy, powerful and confident way.

All of this could be yours.

Want to be a calmer, more successful and happier person? less stressed? Less anxious? Less shy? More confident?

My advice in this case is clear; buy this book.

Took a chance...very glad I did!

Took a bit of a chance on this one! Had seen some good reviews on blogs but had not read into it too much - I am VERY glad I took the chance. This is an very helpful, accessible and easy-to-follow guide to letting go of things and becoming a happier calmer and more in control person. It really helped me with issues I had been having with anxiety, self esteem, worry and confidence.

Fantastic. Thank you to the author :-)

Full marks.

Happy to give this book full marks for the simple reason that it is, every day, helping me so much in life, to let go of a lot of anxieties and nonsense in my head and live a happier and calmer life.
