Morrow does a fantastic job of helping the reader think
outside the box and
look for opportunities that abound around us. She
helps the reader understand
there are many influencers around us that help
mold us into their thinking,
but also consider that we can be an
influencer and affect those around us
concerning our thinking.
She discusses how we must learn to release control
as well as understand
that we can't change someone. When a person realizes
they need to change
then the opportunity for change comes, but not before
then. There are many
personal stories and illustrations to help the reader
learn from issues
within the author's life and thus easy for the reader to
stay focused and
learn without it reading like a textbook. This is a very
enjoyable,
valuable and rewarding read.
There is a section on focusing on
the positive as well as the blessings we
find surrounding us. Also, there is
a section on asking for help and not
trying to go the journey alone. How many
of us can relate and learn from
this?
She also discusses how anger can eat
one alive and destroy their
opportunity to be the best person they can
become. Then she challenges the
reader to get past their past and move
forward in life. Again, I must ask,
how many readers wouldn't need this
material at some point within their
life?
This book is so relational and
helpful. I would recommend it to anyone who
desires to improve their own life
and make a positive influence in the
lives of others.
