Time to employ and enjoy your crazy to create your reality?
What if what is called insanity is the sanity that changes our world?
Honestly I had a hard time with this one. I had an equal amount of curiosity as well as out right resistance to what Susanna was saying in this book. There are some great key points, and many "mindset skills" one can absorb from reading this book. I had to work really hard to keep an open mind while reading. I really didn't enjoy all the leading questions...I skipped paragraphs cause I got tired of that writing style real quick.
