Headline for Review: Finding and Loving your life Purpose

Tami Brady has a M.A. in Archaeology and Heritage and owns a archaeological consulting company. She writes four regular columns for print online media, has ghostwritten four ebooks, and has published over a dozen articles.

Tami had a conversation with her brother one day about how sad her life was and her brother said, “why not?” Why not live the life of your dream? Why not make room for what is important to you? We all make excuses for why not even I am guilty of that. In order to find our life purpose we all need to stop making excuses and “do it now.” Yes, find the time, energy and money. I believe that when we get our own “ah ha” moment, we do what we really want to do without any excuses. Tami was married with three children when she finally realized that she needed to do something about her life. She then set out on a path that led her to doing what she loved to do. She set tiny goals that finally gave her the motivation to “get going” forward. This book does a great job of laying down the foundation of how to “get going forward” and stop wasting time not knowing what we are here to do. If she can do it, we all can!

Quote from page 124:

“ you are you, a unique individual.

You are the compilation of all your

Mental

Spiritual

Emotional

And Physical Aspects.

You are the only one who actually knows

Who you are,

What you believe,

And your most private dreams.

You are the only one who can decide how to live your life.

You are the only one who can ultimately change your life.”

Headline for Book Review: How to deal with Narcissistic parents growing up in a world of all negativity

Quote: “Jesus never tells us to forgive someone who is not remorseful or who is unwilling to change their ways.”

When ReviewTheBook dot com sent me this book for free to do an honest review I had no idea what this book involved. I wanted to read on how to deal with Narcissistic people whom are in my own life. What I found out was that and so much more.

If you grew up with someone that was always negative and no supporting of you and your life and ideas then this book helps you get out of it forever. The author talks about the 21 Rules of No Contact and the 102 Questions to Ask Yourself when deciding whether to end an abusive relationship. You will answer those questions from your heart and be able to use the tools and strategies to overcome those whom have hurt your life in the past and how to deal with them now.

The author Sister Renee Pittelli has tons of scriptures to back up her claims which help the reader recover from the narcissistic person(s) in their lives.

Do you ever wonder what you can expect in the future, and how you will feel years from now if your abusers are no longer in your life? This book will tell you how to get away from it all and start living your full life the way it’s supposed to be. This book helps us to set boundaries so that the abusive person(s) may not have our permission to keep violating our lives.

Lessons from the author:

• Eventually they will lose their ability to impact you emotionally
• They’re not even in the ballpark of normal, and they never were.
• They are never going to be a part of your life again.
• Not everyone is going to hurt you.
• Healing takes time, but you will heal.
