Surrounded by Setbacks: Or, How to Succeed When Everything's Gone Bad

I liked that Erikson turned sound theory into fluent reading and everyday examples.He tells stories one could relate to.He leads you to convince yourself you can reach your dreams.Surrounded by setbacks definitely empowered me for the next phase on my journey to success.Thanks, Thomas

Depuis le début, ça me fait lire le livre. Normalement, je ne lis pas beaucoup de livres mais cette série est vraiment bien. Le seul problème (j'ai enlevé 1 étoile pour cela) c'est que je ne sais pas avec quel livre commencer, à chaque fois parle d'un autre livre de cette série. Sinon 5 étoiles.

I would simply reccomend all books by Thomas Erikson.

The selfhelp industry never ceases to amaze me! There seems to be a new genre that I could only describe as "the disguised voice of your stepmom speaking", trying to hammer into you to become more responsible! Intricately packed with a colorful self-analysis of what a badass you are (you can't blame anyone else for this, it's your own analysis) and remedies a plenty which boil down to "start taking responsibility"! It makes you wonder whether you would rather receive the lecture from your stepmom or buy books like these.

Another slant on self improvement. The author has come up with a theory that people are either Red, Blue, Green or Yellow personality types. It's nothing to do with the actual colours, just a way to differentiate us all and how we handle life with our weaknesses and strengths.
