The Confidence Course

I found this wonderful book by accident, searching for a book of similar title. Intrigued by the professional reviews, still I wasn't sure--so I checked it out at the library. It worked for me. I've now bought three more as gifts for family and friends and it's working for them too. The Confidence Course is a gem: Wisdom well-told.

well I think that this book was pretty cool. Iam only 15 and I read it and it has helped me alot personally inside. I still have trouble not being ever so shy around people but I just tell myself Iam just as good as them if better. Also I have found myself to be noticing how to deal and take responibilites for my own actions and apoligize etc when I know its right. I recommend this book to anyone that needs confidence or self esteem.

This book will help anyone either trying to improve their own self esteem or the self esteem of others. Walter tells a personal uplifting story then gives useful steps for ones own self fulfillment. Do yourself a favor and buy 2 copies, since as soon as you read it, you'll think of someone who needs it more than you do, and you won't want to give away your copy and its too hard to find in the book stores.

I bought this book for myself and found it immensely helpful for pulling me out of a slump. I then bought a copy for a friend who is in a prison's administration segregation unit (locked-up 23-1/2 hours a day. No human contact). He has in-turned loaned it out to other convicts who now want their own copy. Regardless of your background this book really reaches people and teaches confidence.

Walter Anderson's book, The Confidence Course, is a smorgasbord of wisdom flavored with humility and seasoned with humanity. He doesn't talk down or at the reader, but with the reader. By baring his own neck, heart and soul; Anderson enables the reader to entrust his or her heart to the words in this kind, wise and loving book. If you allow yourself to trust in the writer's words and to suspend whatever disbelief your skepticism or cynicism uses to protect you, you will feel less alone and your spirit will be lifted. The greatest accomplishment of this book and of Walter Anderson is his becoming the loving father to the reader that Mr. Anderson never had as a child. Buy this book to help heal the wounds that hold you back in life.
