About the author
David Ferrers
9 books24 followersWhat I think about most of the time is: "how to be happy, friendly, reasonably prosperous and a good coach.” These thoughts drive my reading and my writing.
I found that the quality of my life improved when I set my life purpose to: "help other people to find meaning, happiness and prosperity."
I try my best to ensure that you will be wiser and a little happier and that your life will be enhanced by reading how to coach yourself to achieve what you want in my articles and books.
My style is to help you to make progress simply by showing you how to coach yourself to achieve what you want.
Everything you read in my books or learn on my courses is the result of the 25+ years I have spent coaching people in the UK, USA and India from whom I have learned how people like you can enhance your life. This is what some of my clients say about me on LinkedIn:
“David is a most astute and exceptionally motivating coach with great personal and professional integrity. For somebody with such depth of experience, he is remarkable in his continuing quest for learning and improvement, whether it’s sport, business or leading a balanced life. He works skillfully with many different types of people, and encourages them to find their potential with their own formula. The support he provides always exceeds what one can reasonably expect. The initiative he recently took to set up a service to support executives hit by the economic downturn shows imagination and compassion.

Happiness and freedom come from knowing how to break free from the restrictions of your current life – and most importantly, free yourself to express who you really are. Feeling Groovy is a practical and philosophical book that will teach readers the wisdom to be able to do just that. Ferrers gives you the blueprints to get your head out of the pre-conceived notions of doing things the right way, take a hard look at yourself, what you really want, and shed many of the illusions you’ve been slowly poisoning your life with. It doesn’t matter if you’re a millennial or no, this book will provide you with a healthy point of view.
The book is divided into twenty chapters and each chapter offers different strategies to help readers integrate the goal (of staying happy) into their life. There are a lots of strategies Ferrers goes through in this book. Some of the main themes are these:
(1) Choosing what do you really want; focusing on the things that are actually meaningful to you
(2) Learning to be ok with your fears
(3) Setting a big goal for you and working to achieve it slowly
(4) Understanding the importance of values you hold in your life
(5) Learning to enjoy simple things in life
(6) figuring out what in the end give your life a meaning
As with all the self-help books, the exact mechanics are left to the reader, but the questions, Ferrers raises and the principles provided are thorough and workable. The ideas in one of the chapter(where some of the people decided to follow a comparatively less lucrative dream job after abandoning their high-profile careers sounded a bit over the top) wouldn’t sit very well with money-minded people. But in the end, it is up to any person to realise what is more important to them. A little bit of copy-editing would do this book good to remove restating of some of the phrases.
The pace is fast and the book flows smoothly; it’s an easy read that feels more like a conversation than a dissertation on self-realization. The story-telling occurs at fairly regular intervals, but it’s short and to the point. Readers wouldn’t feel bogged down by too many examples of real-life incidents from strangers’ lives.
A lovely self-help book that even people who don’t read self-help books would enjoy!

This is a refreshing approach to find meaning in your life so that you develop greater self-understanding, confidence and fulfilment.
The author's experience of having coached over 1,000 people really shines through in both the "how-to" advice and the real-life stories he tells.
If you find some situations stressful and you sometimes feel that your confidence wanes this book will help you.
