Dave is entertaining although he never comes to entertain. His mission is to inspire to breath life into people encouraging them to reach deep and become the best person possible both at work and in their private lives. Dave s favorite activity occurs one-on-one in the trenches as a coach facilitating real and lasting change.

Reviews

[Debby]

What an excellent tool!! Finally a book that thoughtfully addresses self sabotage with tools, understanding, identification and a way toward your best you.
Dave Blanchard provides so many resources within and outside of this book. Excellent!

This book has the potential to significantly touch my life if I apply what I've read.
It resonates deeply with me.

Not my kind of book

[Jessica]

This book was a great reminder of lessons I have learned, and that accomplishments don't happen while sitting in a place of frustration/depression/self-pity. It even helped me to figure out the solution to a recent problem that I've been stuck on for a while. The reminder was timely for me and has inspired action moving myself toward things I am passionate about. It's a short book so if you need a quick kick in the butt, this is a good one.

If you want an expanded discussion of some of the topics, I suggest Tao of Pooh, Stumbling on Happiness, and A Return To Love. (then read this one again, it's sure to bring additional insights)

[Shae Burton]

Although the concept was really good the book didn't hold my attention well and I was left feeling a little bit like there was too much repetition and the author had to work hard just to create the book. It lacked the comfortable flow.

[Cassandra]

Great book! Really makes you evaluate who you are looking at yourself and fixing those negative processes we have in our mind.

[Dustin Hedrick]

This is a book I will need to read over and over. Walking with the Blanchard’s now is such a gift. So grateful for what this book has already awakened in me!
