This book was initially created for a close friend who suffers with Bi-polar, Depression and anxiety and had lost his way in life. Unfortunately, when people struggle with mental health issues you can get bogged down and become extremely unfocused and basically can't see the wood for the trees. This happened to my friend. I suggested that he wrote a list of things that made him feel happy etc but because of the place he was in emotionally, understandably he couldn't focus on thinking of any questions to ask himself for him to start this process. Subsequently, that gave birth to this book. It's not an answer to all your problems because the answer is you all this book will do is make you think about different areas in your life. There is nothing too scary in there it is just a starting block to get you thinking of ways to start the process of moving forward and taking back control of your life. Moving forward in a way where you can be more pro-active rather than reactive. I do this with myself; I have a huge list of questions which I review on a very regular basis. I have found it a very positive thing to dip in and out of and hopefully, you will too. On another note I know there are people who just like writing lists and lists of lists; my lovely daughter-in-law and I are both guilty of this. I hope it helps people going through a difficult time to re-focus their thoughts even for a short time.
