Uplifting

[Jesus, Life Coach : Learn from the Best] I'm female & in business (we all are in one way or another!) and I don't agree that this is all business, or just for women. I felt this book was relevant for personal life as much as for business relationships. I want my husband to listen to it, and sent it to my best friend, and plan to send it to others I think would enjoy it. It is not new information, nor was The Path, but like The Path, it reinforces good principals that have been around a long time, reintroducing them into our awareness. It is about inventorying our vision, motives & inner life, and our relationships -- with ourselves, other people & with God. Laurie Beth Jones cites examples from the Master Himself. Regardless of whether or not you are a Believer, Jesus is a very good teacher & great role model. This book is a good follow up to The Path, and the author recommends first doing the exercises in it before proceeding to "Life Coach". I listen to these books on audio -- I enjoy them more that way. I have to say, the intro on Life Coach was hard to get through & put me off (kinda pithy) but once I got past that (it wasn't very long) it got good & I believe everyone could benefit from it. I don't know if I WOULD have listened to it when I was younger (and already knew everything), but wish I had been able to.

great book, great service

Hello! I must say that has exceeded my expectations! I have not read the book completely yet, but it makes me stronger every day while reading , even one page per day gives me more open view what and how we should do - both in our personal and business life. Of course the book is written in a way that does not force me to do this or that but makes me think why the ancient wisdom is still actual and essential. Although the book is written by a Methodist (I am a Catholic), Laurie proves that we all belong to only one GOD and our main devotion is LOVE to God, people and the whole World. By the way - I got the book very very quickly... I am from Poland in Europe (the book has not been translated into Polish yet) and I expected to get it in a month time, and actually I got in more than one week! Well done!

We Can All Benefit from Having the Right Coach

Laurie Beth Jones does an excellent job of sharing real wisdom to those who are open or seeking. If you want to be the best you have to learn from the best and she's picked the right individual to emulate. From carpenter to savior Jesus first transformed himself, then the world. We like Jesus have the same ability if we are open to renewing our mind in truth. Having life abundantly is no accident. Each of us needs a guide. As a new believer I'm thankful for people like Laurie Beth. In this age of heightened anxiety and turmoil having someone to guide us in our daily journey is a true blessing.

This book encourages Thinking - Questioning - Asking Tough Questions - That's Coaching!

I really enjoyed the book - read it through once underlined points to remember. Now I am going back and reading again the highlights. I like it even better, the second time through. Miss Jones' writing show passion. A man or woman, anybody who acts on the truths in this book will see change. That's what Coaching is about, Forward Change, not dwelling on the past, but learning, not dwelling in it. I am a man and enjoyed it greatly.
