Fear Is The Enemy!!, February 11, 2004

I really loved this book. (If you're not into self-help books or interested
in personal empowerment, you can stop reading now.)
Britten is a life coach and radio host, and her big idea is that fear
holds us back--fear keeps us in bad relationships with men, stuck in
bad jobs, together with friends who don't support us, under the thumb
of abusive parents/siblings/ mentors, etc.
Britten analyzes where those fears come from, explains how to understand
them and offers a plan of attack for overcoming them. This book features
an accelerated 30-day plan, like a boot camp for self-improvement.
She's practical and not overly analytical--good, clear, helpful thinking.
I'd also like to recommend a book I got as a Xmas present, "I Sleep At
Red Lights: a True Story of Life After Triplets," by Bruce Stockler,
a touching and hilarious story of what happens when a man decides his
kids are more important than his career.
Nothing in common with "Change Your Life" except it's an amazing and
funny story about how kids change your life for the better--and teach
you who you are. I'm still single with no kids and now I really want
to have my own brood.
