About this listen

The follow up to James Smith’s international number one bestseller, Not a Diet Book.

  • Do you love your job?
  • Does your future excite you?
  • Are your relationships working for you?

James Smith is back to challenge everything you thought you knew about the path to fulfilment and happiness. With hard-hitting home truths and a helping of tough love, be prepared to re-set your outlook, redefine your goals and truly consider:

What does SUCCESS truly mean to you?

Now, more than ever, is the time to take back control. Time to stop sleep-walking through your life; to challenge the status quo; and to truly ask yourself if you’re on the right path to success, happiness and fulfilment.

Only you can take the reins of your own life and choose to make a change, but with invaluable experience, a hunger for genuine happiness, and a drive to be the kind of coach he needed when his life was broken, James can give you the tools to do it.

Not a Diet Book mercilessly takes down every fad diet, workout and health drink you have been sold and instead explains [James’] mission to make understanding weight-loss as two words – calorie deficit.’ The Sun

‘Personal trainer James Smith’s new book, Not a Diet Book, offers frank advice on getting in shape and busts some major diet myths.’ Grazia

‘James’ book is the tough love version of life coaching. He tells you straight, refers to his own experiences in life and makes you laugh along the way.’ Metro

eye opening

I simply love James. Explicit and blunt with a whole lot of excellent points. I ate this book in 1 day.

Good. But not great.

This is a decent follow up. But not necessary. Yes I compare it to Jame Smith’s first book, Not A Diet Book, which was absolutely necessary. A sharp and sane voice cutting through all the noise and bull or the diet and weight loss world. This book is a continuum of the first (even if James says it’s not). But like I mentioned, it’s decent at its best, but not really necessary.

Great Style

An impressive book punching above its weight class. The author obviously has done a lot of personal work to internalize this knowledge and even though there’s technically nothing new here to someone well immersed in the self-improvement literature, but there’s plenty to be said about a great writing style, phenomenal storytelling abilities, and an uncanny ability to express emotions with voice. The author’s take on the ideas he shares in his book makes it a unique read that is well worth the time.

Loved and learned so much I bought his 1st book

Learned so much in very basic terms that really got through to me. So much value in the information given. I have new priorities, new goals and ways to achieve them for real this time. Learned to value my time and put that into my business. Thank you

Love this....

I’ve been a follower of James Smith for several years. From his Facebook Lives with Brian the bird in Bondi to a brief stint as a JSA member during the first Bali competition where I learned all I need to know to maintain and improve my fitness level. Now this, Not A Life Coach, at a time when pondering significant changes in my life, perfectly guiding my thoughts to what matter to ME, not anyone else. Thought provoking, encouraging, funny and from the heart. Thank you, James, for unknowingly being the person spouting the words I need to hear at just the right time in life. Congrats. Well done.
