Summary

What's standing in the way of you living your best life? Most people would reference things like relationships with other people, money, their job, or unfortunate circumstances. None of these explanations make any difference. Through decades of working with people as a personal development coach, Gary John Bishop has determined that the barrier is one thing only: you. If you're easily offended, stop reading now. This isn't the book for you. But if you're looking for a book that gives you the power to find everything you ever wanted residing within you like a well of potential, waiting to be expressed, you're in luck. It isn't other people standing in your way. It isn't even your circumstances that are blocking your ability to thrive. It's yourself and the negative self-talk you keep telling yourself. Bishop leads you through a series of seven assertions to help you move past self-imposed limitations.
