This is a very positive book - great for anyone who is feeling at a bit of a loss about the next step in their life, in their job, in their relationship.
I took my time working through this book. There are a lot of pieces which I reread in order to clarify and integrate them into my own mind. Helpful diagrams assist in providing perspective on how our attitudes shape our lives and how we can regain control and sharpen our reactions to events.
I found the differentiation between a horizontal and vertical perspective particularly helpful, as it was a good reminder that we make tons of choices every day - and they are just that, choices. We choose how to respond when people send us potentially annoying emails, when we feel people are interfering, when we are determining how to react in our everyday relationships.
I also appreciated the reminder that gratitude should be an important part of each day. I saw sections which I believe strongly apply to me, as well as parts of the book which jumped out at me as being ways of understanding others in my life.
This book is recommended both for professionals and for those who are simply looking for a way to change to a more positive outlook.
Read this for work. Very interesting and I found a lot of it quite helpful for navigating life and your purpose, especially in this time of Covid-19. It will be interesting to see how this time away from jobs and “normal” life will change how people see their careers and overall existence. I feel we’ll see a big shift, towards change and goodness.
