A book for women on how to live, written by a very smiley man ; initially this could pose some questions but in the pursuit of all things Thomas Nelson, I gladly review. The book touches on searching yourself, and points out such ideas about drive, partnership in life, passion and dreams. The author touches on not entrusting your life to dreams, because they are only short-term, and that we are increasingly immune to tragedy in the world, if we focus too much on the joy of dreams.
An underlying theme is that many of us seek balance in our lives. We need to seek imbalance. Sounds weird, eh? Imbalance keeps us alive, is Buckingham’s theory….. moreso, “the secret to success and happiness lies in your ability to know yourself well enough to make strong choices without regret…”
One particular point of research reasoned that women are less happy now than at any point since 1972! Buckingham goes on to point out that today women are twice as likely to be on anti-depressants medication as men. Buckingham outlines the SIGN;s of women who live the mantra of this book;- ’strong lives.’ Those are: Succcess, Instinct, Growth and Needs fulfilled.
It’s slow, solid – yet full of sparkle……. The online test and other ‘lady’ resources doubtless will shine too! and yes it’s wonderfully (overly) optimistic!!
