Synopsis
Joel Osteen's previous bestselling title, Your Best Life Now, offered readers guidance for living a good life. In this eagerly awaited new book he'll guide readers to look within themselves to find their authentic soul and conduct a spiritual examination so they can uncover the core of who they really are. Osteen's message is that God didn't create us to be average - He wants us to stretch ourselves, keep pressing forward for greatness, and to embark on mission of self-discovery. God has given us everything we need to live a victorious life, but it's up to us to draw it out and become the tremendous person He wants us to be. Osteen will be revealing 7 key principles that will enable us to achieve this goal, to expand our horizons and fill our lives with love, joy and peace.
Review
This is a good read, especially if life seems to be handing you all the negativity that you do not want to hold on to. As the title says Becoming a Better You - seven keys to improving the life you live, helps to releave the negativity and the pressure of modern life.
Joel Osteen is the pastor of Lakewood Church and also very well known on Televison and through his other books. Many receive his daily messages via their emails where Joel speak a great deal of sense. In this particular book he concentrates on the positive and not the negativity in everyday living which opened my eyes to looking at people differently. For every negative thought, you try and put a positive thought about that person problem in its place instead.
This book encourages all to reach their own unique potential with God, because as he says, we are all unique and that, potential is within us and God just wants us to enjoy what he has placed before us. At the end of each section, there are pointers for one to remember and focus on a great way, to dig yourself out of being the person who always says yes to please others, instead of saying no so that you can do what you need to do.
This book is one I would love to keep on my bookshelf and dip in and out of again and again, to stop me becoming depressed and overwhelmed as I do many times with my Autism
