Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway
Feel the Fear . . . and Do It Anyway
Amazon Price: $7.14 (as of 05/28/2012)
Feel the fear and do it anyway was given to me by my Mum and it was probably the best present she ever gave me. It helped me turn myself from somebody who was timid and frightened of the tasks of everyday life to somebody who is bold and pushes out of her comfort zone.
As a result of reading this book I moved away from my home town to London. I gave up my job and changed my career. I started living a full life and enjoying it, opening myself to new exciting experiences and enjoying all that life has to offer. This book gives you lots of techniques to help you do what you want in your life and push through the fear that we all experience when leaving our comfort zone.
Life is not worth living unless you push through the limits you create for yourself and women are good at keeping safe within a small comfort zone. Expand your life using the techniques in this book and it will change your life for the better. Probably one of the best self help books of all time

Women tend to try do too much in their lives. They juggle lots, raising kids, having a career, doing the housework, keeping up friendships and try to please their partner.

It shows you that about 20% of what you do produces the best results and the most happiness in your life while the other 80% makes little impact. It then advises how to do more of the 20% of things that make you happy and less of the 80% that doesn't.
It covers all areas of you life from career to money to love to children. It shows you how to work smarter rather than harder.
I think about and use the concepts in this book in my everday life. It has revolutionised the way I manage my time. I knock off tasks that really aren't that important. It has meant I spend more time with my son doing the things that I love and less time working at a job I don't like.

The Magic of Thinking Big
The Magic of Thinking Big
Amazon Price: $6.99 (as of 05/28/2012)
This is definitely one of my favorite self help books of all time. It is so optimistic and upbeat as soon as I started reading it, I just wanted to take some action. I first borrowed it from the library but I loved it so much I bought my own copy.
This book changes the way you think. Many women have a tendency to think small, to underestimate themselves, to lack confidence and to not push themselves forward. This book will help change this thinking. It helps you build confidence, think positively, cure indecision, take action, overcome fear - the list is endless. There are lots of pratical techniques to use and lots of examples of how they work.
I would highly recommend this self help book. Buy it and you won't be disappointed. Whenever I start procrastinating or worrying, I read a few pages of this book and it helps me feel better and start dealing with my life instead of worrying about it.

As well as all the good advice, this book is really interesting to read. You can read it cover to cover or dip in and out of certain chapters.
