This book was a bit dry and academic, however, it introduces a more personalized approach to reaching your goals and identifying why you have failed to succeed with past self-help books. Psychology trends are discussed regarding fixed mindsets and how they can lead to failure rather than success when trying to move forward and excel in life goals.

By analyzing and personalizing with the help of the work sheets, I believe, the reader is more likely to reach their goals than using the self-help books of the past. ( )

Unbelievable Me: 5 Steps to a Mindset for Success (Second Edition) by David Lowell

I received a free copy in return for an honest review.

Unbelievable Me is an interesting read. Lots of scientific research and history on how the mind works. It is a bit dry but don't worry - if it's too technical there are little summaries to help you process the info in each chapter. The second half of the book is basically a workbook to help you put into practice some of these ideas in your own life. The Kindle was probably not the ideal place to work on the workbook portion, but a piece of paper and a pencil served me just as well.

If you are interested in how the mind works or in changing your mindset to help you succeed in life, you might give this book a try. ( )

This is a thought-provoking read - and a great workbook for change. There's no doubt that following these tips will help you become your best self! There is also a short test included which could be a real eye-opener for you. ( )
