There are so many words of wisdom from the strong and inspirational people in this book, it is impossible to describe them all in this review. Each story had its own unique message of triumphing over adversity and turning obstacles into success, each story had a life lesson that I could relate to. One of my particular favourites was Own My Story On The Journey, which deals with the negative results of procrastination and self-doubt. How trying to live up to everyone’s expectations and not your own will inhibit your life’s journey. Also the importance of believing in yourself and not apologizing for being you. In Starting Where You Are, Keeping The Dream, you learn about success and life goals and how they are unique to you. I found this story particularly poignant. The courage and determination shown to keep focused on her dreams was outstanding. A truly amazing book of encouragement and insight.
