Great book! Very inspiring. The stories and personal experiences were great in helping it relate to myself and getting the different points across. I especially loved the end where she spoke of the different kingdoms, comparing them to real estate and the requirements for getting to each one and what it will be like. It's given me a lot of motivation to better my life.

I’ve been reading/listening to a lot of talks and church books lately but this is the first one that has come of preachy and left me in a bad place rather then uplifted and motivated to do better. I felt like at times I was actually reading a parenting book. It just wasn’t for me.

I really enjoyed this book that was full of various gospel topics to uplift and inspire. Each chapter is an independent little story or thought and is only 2-3 pages in length. The author was asked to write spiritual thoughts for her Relief Society newsletter for years, and this book is a collection of some of those writings. I enjoyed some chapters more than others, but overall, I enjoyed this book and found myself reaching for this book often and reading 2-4 chapters at a time.

I read this book with a group of ladies and we all agreed that it was enjoyable. It was easy to read. It was talking to women and about life's situations. It was inspiring on how to become better sisters.
Using several different stories, each story was just 1 1/2 to two pages long and helped to take a look at life in positive and motivating ways.

This book was such a fun read and so uplifting! I laughed so hard most of the way through this book! Each chapter is literally only a page or two long and written on short subjects like: What does a Prophet Do When He's Depressed?, Emotional Strength Training, Failure Avoidance Plans, Sunday Vacations, Sucked in By a Worldly Philosophy...etc

A collection of short uplifting, motivating thoughts, stories and ideas. I listened to it on CD while I did dishes or worked out this week.

A lot of great thoughts. I had to get my high-lighter to underline my favorites. Now if I can only remember and apply them.

This book is full of short, uplifting thoughts and stories. Some I liked others didn't really apply to me and so didn't interest me much.

This was such an uplifting book. It was like having a daily devotional.
