Maximum Self-Esteem: The Handbook for Reclaiming Your Sense of Self-Worth

I was looking for an answer to why I can't get over things which were done to me in my past and why I keep confusing approval with acceptance. This book will point out a lot of "buts" and WHY we should like ourselves better. It's good for me because I kept beating myself up about not being good enough and because I've always been depressed with how I look, etc. I hope it brings other people the same happiness it has brought to me. I'm not stuck anymore and I can appreciate my life.Kristina

Great book!It offered lots of information and shows you how to get in touch with your inner self and organize.It makes you think and take action.Teaches you how to remove self doubt and makes you realize that you are a person that can make a difference in your own life as well as others.

I have throughly enjoyed Maximum Self Esteem, and have bought copies for all my children and grandchildren. I think it explains in simple words ideas that we should keep in mind in our everyday lives. It has helped me deal with issues in my life by putting them in perspective,so that they are no longer problems for me. Although people may read this book for different reasons and interpret it differently, I have not met anyone who could not benefit from the ideas it contains.

At last, a book that breaks the grip of victimization! I have been "hurt" in the past and I have "hurt" others. This book aids me in letting go of the BLAME for pain , anger and grief of the past and encourages me to take charge of my "future" self. I don't need to drag it through the refuse-pile of past mistakes. Anger and grief can be very real but they are difficult, heavy baggage to haul around. Even the Bible tells us "you are what you think/feel." I feel I am O.K. and things will improve if I use clear, positive affirmation/prayers! My "Thanks" to the author for this and the "52 ways" book ! More, please!

This book is very easy to read. He writes in a straight forward manner. Self esteem is a difficult topic and he writes in a way that is easy to understand, extremely helpful, and nonjudgemental. I highly recommend it.The layout allows the reader to take a survey and then read the chapters that would be most helpful. I picked it up, began reading and within minutes learned something about myself.
