A Year of Positive Thinking: Daily Inspiration, Wisdom, and Courage, A Guide to Transforming Your Mindset (A Year of Daily Reflections)

Wonderful little book of inspiration. Plan to send one to each of my sons on Mothers Day. My regular habit of sending them a favorite book of mine on "my" special day. The quotes always gets my day off to a good start.

I’m a big quotes person and I just LOVE this book! It brightens my day when I read a page each day. Superbly written, brightly colored, and excellent quality.

This is a great book that we've been reading since Christmas her and I both really enjoy the messages book has

I love this book its is the best mental inspiration

While this could be very useful for many it was not what I was looking for. In my opinion it is titled incorrectly. This is more like bits of wisdom, with short explanatory paragraphs. Not the positive affirmations I was hoping for. It doesn’t seem all that positive so far. Some of the days I read depressed my mood, rather than elevating it. Which was not a great way to start my day. To me it reads more like a self help book. I’m almost all the way through month one. For example day 7: “Expectation Is The Thief Of Joy.” On Day 9 the title was “You Will Make Mistakes In Your Life.” Day 24 “How You Perceive The World Is How You Will Live.” While the info is probably useful, possibly contemplative, I find the tone a bit flat. I was looking for something with more energy and something that felt uplifting. This wasn’t it. If you are looking for bits of wisdom at the start of your day, give it a try, it might be wonderful for you. It wasn’t for me.

Thank You! Uplifting, a great addition to start the day.

What a gem of a book this is! Cyndie Spiegel has compiled quotations, mantras, writing exercises, and a ton of positive thoughts suitable for readers of any age (beyond maybe 13 or so). I enjoyed it so much that I bought a copy for one of my teenage piano students with the hope that she will feel supported by the positive energy and encouragement to follow her dreams. I really wish I had had a book like this earlier in my own life to help get through some difficult times, but it's never too late. My 88-year-old mother wants to read my copy next! The book is formatted by the twelve months (a “chapter” per month) with a quote, thought or exercise for each day of the year. I read it over a period of a week so I could review it, but I loved what I was reading so much that I'm not sure I could ever limit myself to one quote per day. I really love that Spiegel underscores variations on “you are enough” and that she acknowledges that grief, hurt and bad times are a very real part of life rather than viewing things through the proverbial rose-colored glasses. The majority of the book revels in the beauty of life and the possibilities we all offer by being our true selves, but this is NOT a book of fluff pieces, unicorns and rainbows. Life can get tough and Spiegel offers some excellent coping mechanisms and the encouragement to learn the lessons that hard times offer and move on. Ms Spiegel has an avid new fan in me and I hope to spread the word about this beyond excellent book.

A great compendium of thought, focused on positive thinking.

I use this book in my chair yoga class, and the students love it! Some of the info is a bit dated, but overall I'm very happy with this ebook purchase.
