I don't know who needs to hear this, but you have everything you need to be confident, successful, and live on your terms. That's the message from Unstoppable Self Confidence, which I just finished reading.
I really enjoyed the book and it gave me some fresh perspectives on how to control the negative thinking and banish my limiting beliefs.
I will say, it's a little bloated. The author hammers home his point in each chapter over and over. My guess is to make sure the message sinks in (which it did)—but toward the end I found it a little tiresome. A little like when you agree with someone, but they keep making their point anyway.
Here are my top 5 takeaways:
1. GAIN CONTROL OF YOUR THOUGHTS Don’t listen to the negative thoughts you have that limit your success mindset. Your potential is unlimited. Everything that tells you otherwise is learned.
2. REMOVE THE BAD PROGRAMMING There is no limit to your potential. Picture the person you want to be and the life that goes with it. Choose the path that will achieve it and focus on the very next step you’ll take toward it.
1. STOP OVERTHINKING Our mind is occupied with consequences instead of possibilities. Fear creates boundaries; we accept limits rather than overcome them.
Stop searching for things that could go wrong. Look for things that could go right.
2. GET OUT OF YOUR OWN WAY Stop telling yourself to be “realistic.” You are capable of achieving anything if you want it badly enough.
Don’t waste time feeling bad or guilty for your mistakes. You’ll get things wrong.
Learn the lesson, make amends if you need to and move on.
3. LIFE ALWAYS WORKS OUT FOR THE BEST Even if the worst happens, there’s always benefits and value to be gained from the experience.
The size of your problems is nothing compared to your ability to overcome them.

The most interesting idea for me was that idea of being "realistic" and how we're taught from a young age to put limits on what we can achieve. That's something I'm going to change!
This book has changed my life – a true Gem! Andrew led me onto the journey of un-learning negative and limiting ‘programs’ I didn’t even know I had, those that were stopping me from moving ahead! I’m re-discovering the natural confidence I was born with, re-discovering my natural way of thinking that is incredibly powerful yet so simple now that I’ve found it again! The materials are easy to apply… I’m especially grateful that, in a short space of time I could truly forgive others and myself, let go of guilt, and move forward. I feel the sense of inner peace that’s been missing for a long long time.
Thank you Andrew for your amazing, inspiring, life-changing work! I like how you encouraged us to take one step at a time, no need to rush, no need to take great effort, just take the next step on what feels right, and the next… which is exactly what I need to do….to become the very best version of me, happy, calm, fearless and unstoppable!
The knowledge I’ve gained from this book has made me feel indestructible! It is a unique read because it is not only informative as to why we think the way we do, but it gives practical easy to follow advice on how to create a more serving and positive mindset. Forever. It is accessible to anyone. The info is clear and comprehensive. I’d also definitely recommend to parents who want to support and guide their children’s mental health. The book connected with me because I could see that I’m not alone. We all have negative thoughts and sometimes struggle to ignore them, now I know how to! No one will regret buying this book! Just apply the knowledge and live better. I also think it’s a super reasonable price for the reward!
If there’s a book to completely transform your outlook on life, then this is one of them. I am loving everything I’ve read so far, the writer , Andrew helps you realise that although society may make you think you are broken and need fixing, his first few lines and perhaps why I purchased it was because of these lines- ‘you are not broken!’ He takes you on a journey - like a step by step sort of journey slowly helping you unleash that natural confidence we are all born with. I always thought I was a confident person but I’m this journey I have realised society had so much to do with my ups and downs in that field but For the first time I am loving the person I am becoming.
This is quite simply the best self help book I have ever read, and I have read a lot! From the first few words that we are not broken it is comforting, realistic, and practical. Easy to follow Andrew guides and prompts action. It has transformed my internal world which has impacted massively on my outer world. I would urge anyone who is looking to make changes in their life to not waste a moment elsewhere, this book is where you need to be. It is like coming home.
Andrew writes as he speaks. Simply, Honestly and from the Heart. It is easy to understand although the content has depth and is thought provoking. The book is very easy to read and has more nuggets in it than I can count. I wish Andrew Leedham all the very best for the future and thank him immensely.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Overall this book has some really great points. The author typically uses repetitive speech to get his point across and quite frankly it can become exhausting. I trudged though the book and I think that what I learned was worth it, but I would have dug in much deeper had the constant repetitiveness turned me off so much.
Some really great pointers. It almost reads like a study guide - there are moments for you to stop and try out an exercise. It has many grammatical errors, so it could use more edits and a new published version. It also touches over and over again on the same pointers, which can be a bit tiresome, but the author does it for a reason.
Great read. If there is a part of you holding you back from taking that next step, read this book. For me, this was extremely valuable when I wanted to expand my business, but my inner critic was telling me why it wouldn't work. After reading this book, I feel certain there is nothing that can hold me back.
If I could give this book 10 stars I would. I think this is something everyone should read to learn how to be the best version of themelves and to be in conrtol of thier lives. Not only are the concepts so easy to undetstand and implement he actually breaks down how to do it. If your ready to elevate your life go read this now!!!
Andrew Leedham presents some thought-provoking ideas in this refreshing, no-frills, honest approach to resetting and reprogramming one's thoughts and perceptions. As humans, we are by-products of the society we interact in and as a result, a lot of people become what their peers think of them. Andrews's approach, coupled with an internal "makeover" and ridding one's self of the bad programming leads to a better self-image and in turn, Unstoppable Self Confidence.5/5, the best book I have read on the subject.
Fantastic read - clear, concise and well constructed. Through open and honest testimony, the author Andrew enables the reader to identify destructive thought patterns and empowers them to rediscover their authentic-selves. The book offers real-life, strategic tools to manage the challenges life throws at us, as the absolute best version of ourselves. Highly recommended.
