Just a book about different personalities

Very disappointed! I thought this would be a book about abuse recovery and learning to speak up. I was wrong. This book is just a book listing different personalities. It was an absolute waste of time. Read instead: Why Does He Do That? by Lundy Bancroft Not to People Like Us by Susan Weitzman Codependent No More by Melody Beattie 10 Lifesaving Principles for Women in Difficult relationships by Karla Downing The Verbally Abusive Relationship by Patricia Evans The Dance of Anger by Harriet Lerner

I've given away every one I've owned...

This is one of those books that can change your life. It was given to me by a dear friend , and I turned to it when my life made no sense. It helped me make sense of my life then, and it still makes wonderful sense today; 20+ years later. I have "passed it on" to many people and will probably do so as long as it's in print. I hope that this one will stay in my library, but if not, I know it will serve a purpose for someone that I care about - A great book to help you help yourself.....

Be Fully In the Moment

For many years, I wondered why some people abruptly shifted their eyes away from my eyes. I also wondered how it would be possible for me to acquire the charisma that I admire in many public people.This book is the answer.People who shift their eyes from my eyes fear that if I notice who they are, and if I don't like who they are, they won't be accepted, because, to them, that is all that they have. I learned that those people have a self-concept that is based upon anticipating what others will think of them.And to become as charismatic as those I most admire, I've learned that by first accepting everything about myself, I am free to emulate them, without losing myself. This little book has so much information for anyone who desires to be their best.Read this book to become more than comfortable in your own skin.

A Venture Into The Self

Any person who desires to understand himself in regard to personal growth and relationship with others must read this book. I have read and reread this book and use it to counsel others. Powell deals with the topic of human growth and development with acute precision and accuracy that informs a picture of the well-integrated, whole individual. He communicates this person in the honor of the image of God, not in a preachy tone but such as to reflect the dignity of humankind and his own vast understanding in religion and classical studies. He also touches at the nerve of why individuals mask themselves from others and the care and caution that we as counselors need to take in dealing with these people. His catalog of games and roles is so descriptive that even emotionally healthy persons can identify the weakend emotional tendencies that characterize their life. The principles in this book can be communicated to adolescent and adult alike. Simply indispensable.

Will teach you how to analize yourself

You are lucky that this book still is in print. This book is one of the best things you can read if you are lost between reality and fantasy. This book will guide you through discover why you are the way you are and how you can be what you want to be. This book is one of the many keys that will teach you how to be yourself and no one else. Don't be afraid to buy it!

Why Am I Afraid to Tell You Who I Am? Insights Into Personal Growth in New Year + Same You = Say Hello to Anti-Resolutions!
New Year + Same You = Say Hello to Anti-Resolutions!
Published by Beth Clark • January 01, 2019

New Year = Let the resolutions begin! Orrr...not. 2019 is new, but really, you woke up the same old you (older if you overindulged NYE), so maybe it's time to embrace your real, gloriously imperfect, weird self and say hello to anti-resolutions instead of the same old same old. (And good-bye to celery without peanut butter and raisins!)
