An inspiring and laugh-out-loud guide to building the kind of confidence it really takes to live the life of your dreams, from Impact Theory co-founder and growth mindset guru Lisa Bilyeu.
Lisa Bilyeu grew up in London, where she was told her dreams of Hollywood were a little too big for a girl. After all, in her traditional Greek culture, who cared about prestigious awards when you could be a housewife? Lisa cared. Except after graduating from college, meeting the man of her dreams, and moving to Los Angeles, a housewife was exactly what Lisa became - for eight years!
Radical Confidence is the story of how Lisa unpaused her life to co-found a company that went from zero to a billion dollars in just five years and become a leader in the world of personal development. Transforming herself with a growth mindset, Lisa learned to face her insecurities and inadequacies, embrace new challenges, solve her own problems, tell her negative voice to shut up and become the hero of her own life by life-hacking her way to feeling confident.
Radical Confidence is deeply personal and filled with insight and practical tools for honest self-assessment, mastering emotions and staying motivated. With humour and honesty, this book teaches you how to be driven by your insecurities to create the life of your dreams.
Το διάβασα στα ελληνικά με τίτλο " Απόλυτη αυτοπεποίθηση" και ήταν βιβλίο αυτοβοήθειας και καλά... Την κυρία Λίζα δεν την ξέρω και δεν επιθυμούσα και να τη μάθω αλλά να που διάβασα την αυτοβιογραφία της γεμάτη με κλισέ κανόνες για τα πάντα και για το πόσο καλά τα κατάφερε στη ζωή της.. ( Σχετικό είναι αυτό) Δεν ένιωσα να με βοηθάει και κάπου γιατί δεν ταυτίζομαι πουθενά με τη κοπέλα και γενικά ήταν ένα αχρείαστο βιβλίο για μένα που νιώθω ότι απλά έχασα τον χρόνο μου..
I thrifted this book for $1 so I figured I had nothing to lose in giving it a go. I loved reading Lisa’s story in how she went from a stay at home wife to helping create the brand Quest with her husband. It was super relatable + there were so many great little take aways! I really enjoyed it!
Great book, sunny and amazingly descriptive! However is addressing only to women,which made me think " Don't Men need confidence as as well? Don't they need support? A cheerleader to their corner?" and if it is a book written only for women it should be clear on the cover.
An uplifting and positive read. Biggest take away for me is ensuring that your habits/activities serve your goals and ruthlessly weed out or outsource those things that distract. Boom!
This is funny and powerful. I started by watching her on YouTube and then I saw this book and knew it was going to be so authentically Lisa. It really was and I'm so glad I got it.
