Re: What Made this Book Stand Out from the Typical 'Self-Help' Genre?
1. I will recommend this book to anyone dealing with stress or being helpless since it provides excellent insights and motivation.
2. It emphasizes how worry can lead to calm, clarity of mind, and happiness, as well as help individuals who are stuck or undecided.
3. It is also an excellent resource for people seeking motivation and perseverance in the face of adversity.
4. It encourages people to shift their perspectives on challenges and take different approaches, beginning with hope.

- Latest Review: Fireproof Happiness by Dr. Randy Ross
I absolutely agree with this. A book about hope being written in such a dark time, coming from an author who's been through tough times himself, definitely shows he practices what he preaches and gives added value to the concept of hope itself.Bradley Twesten wrote: ↑16 Feb 2024, 12:05 For me, it wasn't the format, or the data, it was just the timeliness of the book being written during the pandemic. My mind just kept going back to those times. For me, the pandemic was working in the basement with a spaceheater between my legs. My boss reacting if my little dot in MS TEAMS went from green to yellow or the dreaded red. My daughters breaking up my day asking about content with their home-schooling materials. Looking out the window at the neighbor, who didn't have to work and was out doing yard work or relaxing....but probably wasn't getting paid either. They were tough times. We needed hope.
