I like how it has 6 mini-stories. I am curious about the message and moral and how she worked smarter rather than harder. Thank you for writing a lovely review!

Believing in oneself is not the easiest task in the world if there’s no supportive background. I have to admire this author for overcoming such a lack. This book sounds very interesting, thanks for your detailed review!

I'd for sure like to know more about this book. Thank you for putting up such an eloquently written review!
The author shares lively, candid stories that give the reader a great look at the way she tackles obstacles. It’s an inspiring read—I hope you check it out. Thank you for your comment!

The six chapters held the perfect amount of information to give the reader a feel for how the author succeeded. And the stories were exciting! Thank you for your comment.

In the stories, the author talks about a few key people in her life that believed in her along the way. One of her workplace “believers” reminded me of a boss I had once. You never forget those who go out of their way to help you succeed.

Thank you for stopping by and leaving a comment!
