This was one of many books I read this summer to help me improve outlook on life, my mental toughness, and overall mental well being. I have posted several book reviews in the last few months on books that have really helped stay strong during my training for my first marathon as well as helping me to declutter all the things in my life that I don't really need.

Excellent book! Written beautifully and easy to read. The power in the words touches you heart and makes you realize how important these ten phrases are in life. Not only how they impact you but more importantly how they impact others. The whole reason we are here on earth is the support, help, inspire, love, and serve others. This book is excellent in teaching us the value of others.
People can be encouraged when they hear, I'm wrong, I'm sorry, You Can Do It, I Believe in You, I'm Proud of You, Thank You, I Need You, I Trust You, I Respect You and I Love You. Easy read and great insights about the life of Rich DeVos owner of Amway and the Orlando Magic.
This book has 10 chapters and in each chapter there is a word, for example chapter 1 it says "Im Wrong" and it teaches us to say these words to be a positive person. Im Wrong is all about the ways you should say if you are wrong. Chapter 2 is "Im Sorry". Im sorry is compared to Im wrong because when you are going to say sorry, there is something you did wrong so you will have to say,"Im was wrong and I am Sorry about that." Nobody can say anything back to you becaus...more
A very powerful book, easy to read with a fantastic message. Highly recommend to everyone.
the 10 phrases are a good reminder of the power of words -- but, not much substance in general to the book.
This is a must-read for all humans! Well-written, easy to get through.
The concept or 90/10 Steven Covey is here :)
