More like 4 1/2 stars. The first part of the book was great becuase it was at the beginning stages of my seperation and it helped me think beyond the negative thoughts. I think the second part wasn't as inspirational becuase I had put it aside for a bit and picked it up after I have come to terms with the seperation and was in a good place already and didn't need the words of encouragement. Of course, it was still good to finish and go through the exercises. Recommend

Very good book to help you get through the ups and downs of our roller coaster lives. It's good for all kinds of changes you might be going through. What I enjoyed even more than the book was the website ... www.first30days.com

Met Ariane at the Mass Conference for Women a year ago - very interesting and motivating speaker. Good read for anyone going through a life change.

I really enjoyed this book. I actually listened to the audiocd's and ended up buying it so I could take some of the tests. I couldn't do that in my car! It was full of postive approaches to our everyday feelings like doubt, guilt, etc. Now if I can only remember all of the antedotes. I would recommend this to anyone going through a change in their life whether good or bad. It was very uplifting. I listened to it a second time I liked it so much.

It's a good book for people going through changes or rocky times in their life. I think I'd have given it more stars if I'd read it say 10-15 years ago. I've gone through enough of them that I've already figured out this stuff on my own, but it's good to have it all together in one book to give to people who are in their own rocky periods. It's well-written, with good explanations. And it's true.

I've read a lot of self-help books, but this one has some solid refreshing guidance I haven't seen before. Recommend to anyone just trying to adjust to the daily challenges of life.

To be perfectly honest I didn't learn much from the book, but that is because I've always had the belief that things happen for a reason, good or bad, so it wasn't really anything new for me. But if you have trouble getting through the rough changes in life, even the heartbreaking ones, this book is helpful and enlightening.

I don't usually enjoy self-help books. Can't say that I enjoyed the "read" (actually listen). That said, it served as an impetus for moving forward and clarifying things for me, and I am glad that I read it.
