Customer Reviews

Learn To Power Think
This book really hit home the fact that our power comes from within. Once read I had the ability to look at my strengths. I now feel I can be the best I know I can be both with my personal and professional life. I really liked the step by step exercises that made the process fun and fool proof. Thanks Caterina, for showing me how to reduce my stress and believe in myself.

Your Heart's Desires Can Easily Be Yours
A great book that I have decided to use in my class this Fall so that students can self assess and determine what they want and proceed to figure out ways to get it.

Working with students committed to social justice is my passion. I want to give them every possible tool to be successful in what ever they choose to do and be. This book is an excellent foundation to do so.

A self-help book that actually helps
Rando's ebullient personality comes through her writing, and I found this book inspiring. She presents good ideas for analyzing the way you think and demonstrates how your thoughts limit you. She gives thoughtful, practical ideas for turning your good ideas into action. I particularly liked her section on remembering the good things you've accomplished in the past and building on the self-esteem they foster. Rando is one of those writers you'd like to do lunch with!

Four stars instead of five because art director puts exercises in miniscule type on colored background and they are extremely difficult to read. Illustrations are lovely, however, and basically this book looks wonderful, which in some ways enhances the text. But someone should have overruled the art director on type size. In a self-help book, content is more important than the look of the book. You'll find plenty of content here -- if you can read it.
