Helps to make a person BRAVE!

[Libby Andrews · Rating 3 out of 5]

David Viscott explains how we should take risks to make our lives happier and that when a child or friend says they’re going to do something we should say ‘Why not, thats a great idea.’ Obviously not if the idea is going to kill them 😂 He explains how fears hold us back and how to overcome this by analyzing fears and breaking them down. He also says anger is just fear and guilt is anger at ourselves. All in all an interesting book but nothing earth shattering.

One of those books I read forever ago but snippets of wisdom still stay with me. Like: "The secret of risking is not knowing what to risk but with whom."
