Heather

A Self Help Book from Someone who was a Non-Believer

Revisado: 03-10-20

If you’ve read all the books and are still searching when it comes to personal development this is the book YOU need to read. Get Out Of Your Own Way by Dave Hollis is the first time I felt like I wasn’t reading a personal growth book written by a cheerleader who had always been reaching for more but instead someone who has broken away from his fixed mindset to endless possibilities. This book evaluates a series of obstacles that ultimately he was at the root at and in turn teaches the reader the power of not using these excuses as reasons to be stuck. So many things ARE in our control yet we often don’t see it that way, Dave Hollis leads his reader to understand this. If someone could only read part of this book I would highly recommend Chapter 8 and the Conclusion. In Chapter 8 “Failure Means You’re Weak” we see Dave’s journey with a growth mindset. My favorite quote “the way you think may be leading you, rather than you leading the way you think” reminds us how powerful our thoughts truly are. In the conclusion of the book Dave sets out five areas in ones life that he believes will help you preserve a better life. Ultimately read this book and use one man’s story of growth to help yourself GET OUT OF YOUR OWN WAY!

Hollis wants YOU to be Your own HERO

Revisado: 03-05-19

Hollis wants YOU to be your own HERO and in her follow up to GWYF she lays the foundation for you to do just that. Go read this book!

The book is organized into three sections helping the reader to shift your mindset and re-think about how to go about achieving the goals that are most important to you. Part one talks about “Excuses to let go of.” This section of the book correlates to Hollis’s last book but instead of calling them lies she illustrates the excuses we use in life and how to STOP relying on them.

The second section is devoted to “Behaviors to adopt.” Here Hollis lays out seven behaviors to use to help you go chase down that ONE goal your working on. The last section of the book is about “Skills to acquire.” Focusing on the fact that “These are not unique and special abilities you were born with; they are learned abilities.” This section was really important to me because while so many of the skills we’re like duh of course I need to do that; Rachel perfectly outlines how to acquire these skills and practices to stay away from.

I am so thankful for this book and truly see it as another jumping off point to help women reach their full potential however that may look for them.

If you have made it this far, thank you! I urge you to read this book and will leave you with one of my favorite quotes. “You’re going to be there every single day, so you better believe your life is worth fighting for”
