Publisher's summary

Follow your heart. You do you. You are enough. We take these slogans for granted, but what if this path to personal happiness leads to a dead end? In Rethink Your Self, Trevin Wax encourages you to rethink some of our society’s most common assumptions about identity and the road to happiness. Most people define their identity and purpose by first looking in (to their desires), then looking around (to express their uniqueness), and finally - maybe - looking up (to add a spiritual dimension to life). Rethink Your Self proposes a counterintuitive approach: looking up before looking in.

It's only when we look up to learn who we were created to be that we discover our true purpose and become our truest selves.

Look up!

A God and Gospel centric approach to who are and how to get our identity based in who we are in Christ not how the world or culture defines us. Looking up to God first, then looking around to people who are following hard after Christ and then looking within is that we define ourselves so we can glorify God.

This is a book in how to live life as a Christian.

I read numbers of books each year written for Christians. Books in theology and doctrine and how to live life. This is that rare book that both the most advanced Christian can read along with the brand new Christian. Both ends of the spectrum and everyone in between will be a blessed by its message.

Bible-centric approach to self actualization

I was intrigued by the first couple of chapters, but then the author shifts from "look up first" to "the Bible is the best book and teaches us my philosophy."
Great resource for those who use the Bible as a spiritual guide. Great narration!
May not be as helpful for listeners who want to draw from other spiritual texts or philosophies. Untethered Soul, and Radical Acceptance, Lost Connections, and Stolen Focus might be good alternatives for those attracted to this title but who have religious trauma around viewing the Bible as a spiritual guidebook.
If you live your life by the Bible and are looking for a new spin on self-help, this book is for you and you will most certainly enjoy it.
