The Blurb On The Back:
Courage, confidence, success: they begin with self-esteem - and self-esteem begins with you!
Of all the judgments you make in your life, none is as important as the one you make about yourself. The difference between low self-esteem and high self-esteem is the difference between passivity and action, between failure and success. Now, one of America's foremost psychologists and a pioneer in self-esteem development offers a step-by-step guide to strengthening your sense of self-worth. Here are simple, straightforward and effective techniques that will dramatically improve the way you think and feel about yourself. You'll learn:
- How to break free of negative self-concepts and self-defeating behaviour.
- How to dissolve internal barriers to success in work and love.
- How to overcome anxiety, depression, guilt and anger.
- How to conquer the fear of intimacy and success.
- How to find - and keep - the courage to love yourself.
And much more.

The Verdict:
Although I did get a certain amount from this book, it's not going to be the sort of thing that helps everyone. I liked the results-focused approach and the idea of producing solutions to problems rather than just talking about them, but I'd suggest it's the sort of book that you only get something out of if you're prepared to buy into it.
