5 comments about Life Strategies Self-Discovery Journal: Finding What Matters Most for You.

1. Each page in this journal is in the same format. It has a one sentence epigram from Life Strategies at the top. You then get blue lines across the rest of the page, where you can fill in your ideas on this topic.

   Compared to either Life Strategies or The Life Strategies Workbook, this journal is not very helpful at all.

   If you have read Life Strategies, you can simply write down your ideas about the key elements in that book on your own paper.

   If you want to do exercises, The Life Strategies Workbook is superb and I highly recommend it.

   Skip this journal!

   Do you learn best by thinking, writing, talking, doing, or some combination of the above? Whatever the best method is, use that method to apply Life Strategies to improving your life.




2. This journal will help you to map out and record your quest for self-discovery and enlightenment. The lay out is great and you will find all of the extra tools and hints are useful and somewhat inspiring. Dr. McGraw has done it again! I also like to use this journal to record my personal growth from a book by Matt Pasquinilli called "The Child Whisperer." Even though the book is written with parents and teachers in mind, the ideas are simple to understand and apply to any person of any age.



3. If you have read Life Strategies or have completed any of the exercses in the Life Strategies Workbook, then you are already on your way to self-discovery. Both are excellent self-help tools and highly recommended. However, this journal is not like the original book or the companion workbook and readers could be very disappointed. There is nothing contained in this journal that would lead one to self-discovery other than what the reader actually chooses to write. You are not prompted for ideas, thoughts or feelings but left to your own resources to express your own thoughts. There are a variety of basic journals on the market, many for more outstanding than this one, so invest your money in the Life Strategies book and the Life Strategies Workbook and pass on the Self-Discovery Journal.



4. I was dissappointed in this journal, because it seemed like more of a workbook. I was expecting more of a self help book, not a book which I had to write my own opinions. I bought this book to hear the opinions of another person, that is not what I recieved. I do not think that is helpful, but if you like to do exercises, go ahead and try it.



5. Repeats itself quite a bit. If you can get it cheap enough, then I reccomend it. If not, skip it.

1. I'm so grateful that I was given a copy of this book by a friend. John Buffini has explained the human condition with remarkable accuracy. I now understand myself on a much deeper level and am able to live my life in a way that is finally meaningful and rewarding to me - the way I actually am instead of the way I always thought I was "supposed" to be. Many of the things that I would have changed about myself I've now learned are some of my greatest abilities. Learning to champion those abilities as well as how to appropriately manage and restrain them has become a huge part of my dramatically improved personal and professional success. What a remarkable journey and gift - one that I intend to share with everyone I care about. I wouldn't want anyone to miss the path to true individual happiness that I have found. Thank you John Buffini!



2. Yes ... I've been asked that question ... and ... yes ... I have also had the urge to ask that question. However, this book provided insight into personality dynamics between and within myself and others ... thus helping me understand how silly that question actually is. The primary benefits of having read this book ... are that I feel better able to celebrate my victories and strengths ... and more importantly ... I am better able to recognize people and environments that are toxic ... to me (i.e. not toxic in an absolute sense). This has made it easier for me to exercise the power of choice ... by either consciously making allowances ... or intentionally disassociating. I would strongly recommend this book to anyone who is serious about self-improvement ... in an absolute sense.



3. "Be Yourself" focuses on helping people understand themselves better through great stories and tremendous "word pictures". There are so many positive aspects of the book it's hard to describe in under 1,000 words. One of the benefits that may not be obvious at first, though, is the ability to have better relationships with others around you. Reading the book helps you to understand not just how you tick but how others around you tick as well. So for me, "Be Yourself" allows me to appreciate not only my own gifts and abilities but other's as well. Understanding that we all naturally have different gifts and abilities and learn and understand things differently, reduces my stress level in both business and personal relationships. I'd recommend this book to anyone that wants to better understand themselves and those around them.



4. This is a wonderful book on revealing the layers of ourselves and what we take for granted in our daily living. John Buffini has opened up or re-opened up many things about how and why I get the best out of myself and how to work and live with the important people and family. It is amazing to have the words jump of the page as I read them to get a better understanding of who I am and want to become. Be prepared to make notes and work exercises that will be helpful for the long term as you learn to become a better version of yourself. Very enjoyable experience, to having a good life!



5. I found this book to be extremely helpful to me in assessing and accepting the natural attributes of the people I love. It helped me realize I'm OK too. We are built a certain way and we can improve ourselves and don't have to try to change our nature just manage it better. I loved the book and am going to gift it to others.

1 comments about The Woman Who Found Her Voice: A Tale of Transforming.

1. "Once upon a time, long, long ago, feudal lords ruled and serfs and peasants worked the land. In that time, there was a place, and in that place, there was a valley through which a winding river flowed." This is the beginning of a magical, hopeful fable for adults about a woman named Maria. She begins a journey of self-discovery and transformation after she loses her family to the Great Fever and is unable to protect a young runaway serf from being recaptured. As Maria rails against life's unfairness and her inability to make a difference, a hawk appears. This magical hawk enables Maria to take two different animal forms: a wolf and a turtle. She gradually learns valuable lessons about life from each animal during her challenging journey, including when to "do" and when to "be." In the end, Maria literally regains her voice and develops the ability to speak up for what she believes in a way that inspires others to action, rather than alienating them. This is an excellent gift book, for yourself or a friend.

1. El libro es una excelente guía para entender cómo las relaciones humanas pueden arruinarse por no saber comprender al otro y lo mejor es que puede ser una excelente guía para intentar salvar una relación.
   La lectura es fácil y entretenida con ejemplos concretos de situaciones reales... Altamante recomendable para aquellos que quieren conocer al otro sexo y tratar de mantener una sana relación de pareja
