This week’s book recommendation was really inspirational for me. I’ve been very introspective lately and one of the things I’ve been trying to get a handle on is my own authenticity. As I mentioned in an earlier post, Let’s Get Real, I am more likely to be dishonest about my true feelings in order to control the outcome of a situation. Chances are you’ve been guilty of doing the same, but maybe didn’t realize it.
Have you ever…
- been bored listening to someone but acted interested?
- had trouble admitting you didn’t know something you’re supposed to know?
- had trouble admitting you’re wrong?
- had difficulty asking for what you wanted?
- had a problem saying no or marking your boundaries?
These are some of the questions that author Susan Campbell, Ph.D. poses in her book Getting Real, and if you answered yes to any of these than you need to read it.
This Week’s Book Recommendation

Susan defines 10 Truth Skills that, when practiced, will allow you to live an authentic life and will help you discover the freedom that comes from relating more and controlling less. She has a real knack for using personal anecdotes to illustrate her point and show her own experience on the subject.
It’s time to start living in the now, be open to the real you – mistakes and all. This book will improve your relationships and interactions.
Stay tuned because I’m going to be giving YOU an opportunity to win an autographed copy of Susan’s book. She has graciously given me two copies to give away to my readers and I’ll be posting details about this contest soon!
In the meantime, if you just can’t wait, I encourage you to order this book and start changing your life.

I’m going to start making weekly recommendations of books that I really enjoyed reading and I think will be of some great use to all of you. It occurred to me that I was “hogging” a lot of great reads by not talking about them so I’m going to change that and post some brief reviews. If you’re an avid reader like I am then I hope you’ll recommend some of your favorites as well. I’m always looking for the next good read. Let’s get started with the first review…
This Week’s Book Recommendation
| Make Today Count: The Secret of Your Success Is Determined by Your Daily Agenda by John C. Maxwell |
|
|
This little book packs a big punch and I now have a fresh perspective on how to live each day. This is a condensed version of John’s book, Today Matters, which I appreciate because I read through it quickly and easily and didn’t feel like I was missing anything critical.
Are you ready to make each day a masterpiece?
The idea is simple: Good Decisions + Daily Discipline = A Masterpiece of Potential. John then talks about the 12 Daily Principles (or the “Daily Dozen”) that are key ingredients in making this recipe work. If you’re looking for motivation and a new angle on how to make each day meaningful then I highly recommend this book.
