Becoming Fearless, by Dr. Benjamin Ritter, teaches readers how to overcome the anxieties that may be holding them back in their personal or professional lives. The book is divided into two main sections, the first addressed to readers on a personal level and the second for those working in professional situations. Ritter’s book is more than a repetition of self-help platitudes. The author encourages readers to “take action,” which is a phrase that occurs frequently in the book. The author also provides an additional resource to his readers by including a QR code to a “Becoming Fearless Worksheet.” Ritter has a doctorate in organizational leadership and runs a consulting organization, where he has taught his principles to thousands of people at well-known companies.
Everyone who wants to improve their self-confidence and/or advance in their career should read Becoming Fearless by Dr. Benjamin Ritter. One excellent piece of advice that meant a lot to me was, “If you’re in a nervous situation, look at it as being excited instead.” Another was, “List your accomplishments.” I know from personal experience how much this practice can help overcome self-doubt, so it was good to see that Ritter included it. I liked that the author understands the importance of easy-to-read text, so he utilizes plenty of white space. Every other page is a pull quote from the previous page, which both makes for easy reading and emphasizes the main point that he just wrote about. Most of all, I liked how he writes that becoming fearless is a choice. The first choice anyone who wants to change their life should make is to read Becoming Fearless.
