Be Brilliant

Rate this book
Slow down, own who you really are and unleash your inner brilliance.

You already have everything you need to become truly brilliant ― to lead a successful, fulfilling life ― even though it doesn’t always feel like it. When everything external to us is moving so quickly, we feel out of control and exhausted; we worry about what we don’t have or what we need more of; we seek solutions to band-aid our perceived imperfections and doubts. Crowded calendars and unending demands at home and work give us little time to look internally ― though it is within each of us where the answers can be found.

At a time when we suffer from unprecedented stress, comparison-itis and self-doubt, author Janine Garner asks us to slow down and turn our focus inward. She challenges you to take ownership of who you are and who you want to become, to rise above limitations, and unleash your brilliance within.

Learn the 4 Laws of Brilliance and explore how

• discover and own your spotlight
• harness your natural energy
• connect and collaborate with intent
• enhance and magnify your influence.

Be Brilliant helps you get out of your own way and unlock your true potential.

Be a brilliant version of you

This book asked me some hard questions and provides a clear, simple and actionable framework to make progress.

I recommend this book who has ever thought in their darkest moments or their quietest thoughts - Am I all I can be.

Janine's combination of honest and personal stories with practical next steps helped me to see myself in a completely different future.

It’s not often I find a book that book is easy to read, practical and inspiring at the same time. I have found this with Janine Garner’s ‘Be Brilliant’. Told through a very engaging, personal lens, this book is great to encourage people to be the best they can be, adopt some practical strategies and quite simply, Be Brilliant. I highly recommend it.

This book asks the hard questions and makes you to take a good look at yourself. Should you decide that there’s room for improvement, it sets clear, simple and actionable steps you can take to get yourself from who you are to who you want to be. Along the way, you’ll learn to embrace your flaws - because we all have them.

Janine Garner serves up a combination of personal and honest stories that will inspire you to update to a better version you. Like all the books that fall into this category, you only get to ‘Be Brilliant' if you you take action. There’s no point stopping at just reading the book.

With COVID-19 testing us to breaking point, there’s no better time to update to a better version of you.

We can all be brilliant!

Janine’s book is not only thought provoking but also provides practical tips and reflections as you work through the book. I could hear Janine’s voice throughout all the pages. The wisdom in this book is gold!

I love the fact that this book challenges you to continue to work on yourself, noting that brilliance is not something you “do once” but that it is a constant and evolving process, as all good things are, consistency is the key!

Great work Janine, thoroughly recommend this read!

Janine Garner is a prolific writer and author. This is a great read on building influence by helping others reach their goals. Referral business this the best way to generate new business and Janine is great at helping salespeople and business owners expand their circles of influence. The author is an avid speaker and travels (when possible) assisting people through her writing and speaking, plus she works with individuals in smaller groups and on a one-on-one basis, a great read if you are planning on expanding your business contacts.

Was easy to read - clear and relatable, enough practical examples and experiences of others to inspire, and good amount of actionable points to make it relevant.
It felt like it is written from the position of support and kindness.

Janine pulls together a lot of information in a streamlined and simple way. The end of chapter tasks are enough to make you think and to be actionable without being overwhelmed.

Thanks to Janine for this as it was a great book to finish before I start a new job.

This book didn't feel like your traditional personal development book, the way that Janine writes is more conversational and friendly. She offers useful tips and shares stories that aim to aid decision making and help you build up confidence in the workplace. The details within this book have helped guide me through my current career change, and I'd recommend it to anyone who is moving into leadership or feels a little lost in their work.
