I enjoyed reading this book. It was similar in some ways to Pastor Steven‘s sermons on TV. I appreciated the personal examples from daily life that he used to illustrate his points. Many of us sabotage ourselves by overcritical thinking, by comparisons to others, and useless speculation. This book reminds us how important it is to actually control your attitude, your perspective and your thoughts. Do not accept every thought that comes into your mind as valid. Try to be aware of what you’re thinking, and line your thoughts up with God’s word. Explore why you’re criticizing yourself, or feeling fearful, anxious, etc. instead of praying. I took my time reading the book and found it very practical.
