Coming from someone who already has a Master's Degree in this subject, this is a really strong book. Even those of us with this degree can use this book as a good refresher. I like how the exercises are explained. I particularly like how this book is set up to guide the reader to be successful. It isn't too scientific but gives enough evidence of the "why". If you are looking to build resilience, actually reach your goals, and starting building the life you desire: this book is one to add to your collection. Do the exercises. Seriously. Not only was it fun, but it gives you lots of ideas of things to come back to and reassess down the road.

Always on the lookout for a 'book so good it could change your life', Level Up by Michelle Riberio fits the bill. It is the mid-pandemic boost we all need to come out winning and ready to face the world. With exercises, examples, and scenarios, the guide allows for trying out practices to develop a tougher mindset. Mental endurance and emotional strength will be yours. Riberio's words will become mantras to transform anxiety into security.

Honestly, I didn’t know what to expect after getting this for $5 at the store. I took my time with it and used some of the exercises to help me learn more about myself and what my strengths and weaknesses are. Overall a very good mental workshop read!

This book takes an empathetic approach and gives bite size approaches and allows you to have kindness and patience with yourself when dealing with life. This is so necessary for everyone to read in life. Highly recommend. Especially loved the reflection to true life to humanize my feelings and relate. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Very good. You'll get out of it what you put into it. This is essentially a long list of exercises grouped by category. I suspect most readers will pick and choose. Each one is well constructed. Recommended for those seeking growth.

I really appreciate the ARC for review!!

If you are looking to do some inward reflection this is a wonderful book, to begin with. I love how the exercises are explained and how easy yet powerful each thing is within the book.

This book really is a wonderful tool for both masters in this subject area and those just jumping in alike.

Not my usual type of book but I did really enjoy this one. It was clear cut and easy to follow. Definitely something to give a chance to if you want to improve your mindset.

[Nicole · Rating 4 out of 5]

Level Up is such an uplifting, motivating, and positive book. This one is beautifully written and easy to implement.

The content in the book makes you feel more willing to do the work and feel better about it, providing inspiring tips and aid for setting goals and staying motivated. It gives simple but effective methods to get things done and break things down into more digestible tasks. It offers guidance for how to bounce back after difficult situations through emotional acceptance. In the book, the author provides strategies to form new habits for success, boost motivation, design your environment, build grit, maintain patience and self-control, confront stress, forge self-confidence, improve self-awareness, and much more.

It was calm and easygoing, and it didn't read like a textbook but like a wise, coaching healing book with a pleasant overtone. It has a kind and powerful approach to change your mindset and reflect on your self-discovery and journey in life.

This book contains 100+ exercises to help you "level up" in life. The exercises themselves are small and straightforward with a bit of info about each one.

This book is geared towards people who haven't had the chance to read much in the genre before. It contains many ideas and a few would definitely be useful to everyone who read it.

3 stars

I received a free copy of this book from Netgalley. It doesn't impact my opinion in any way.

Great book. I don't think the title does it justice. The book is a how to on life. The author gives you ample tips on how to improve yourself and the life you lead. She covers goals, visions, good and bad habits, physical, mental and emotional health, whatever you can think of that affects your day to day. i would call this a reference book on how to do life. She gives basic tips and then goes further by offering you a more advanced version of the tips in question.

Most of the stuff I already knew, but as I was reading information with promotion of idolatry and food sacrificed to idols, I remembered Revelation 2:18-29, 2 Peter 2, and 2 John 1:7-11. I returned it to the library without finishing it. I couldn't abide in the false teachings; therefore, I DID level up!

[Alexandra · Rating 3 out of 5]

Exercises one right after each other. The exercises can be built on each other if you want. Can do them in one go or do some at the same time or extend the period you do them. Can be helpful to people.

[Morgan Conner · Rating 2 out of 5]

This book covers lots of big topics in small bite size pieces in a workbook/journaling format. While some of the advice was good, some was repetitive and off the wall.

Not a bad read, but overall I didn't get what I wanted from the book.

[Dessy · Rating 5 out of 5]

I’ve never read a book like this before. Brief, smart, without too much theory. This book is full with direct activities to practice to make you understand yourself better. It helps you deal with your own challenges and encourage to be a better you. Every word are important and true.
