Great Self Help Book July 12, 2008
This is a great self-help book. If you complete the exercises you will learn a lot about yourself.
Another excellent self help book August 9, 2007
This is another excellent book by Harville Hendrix in which you can learn a lot about what makes you do the things you do in a relationship, and why others do what they do. I found both this book and Hendrix's Guide for Couples extremely enlightening and I've read a lot of self-help books! (The Guide for Couples is fine for Singles, by the way)
Powerful self help book June 28, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
If you are really committed to personal growth and to not repeating the same old mistakes in your next relationship, then this is the book. it is not an easy read. I was recommended this book by my therapist and it's the most intense self help book I have ever worked through (and I have been doing this for some time).
Doing the exercises in the book has helped me to bring all kinds of thoughts and habits that I wasn't aware of into consciousness where I stand a chance of healing them and doing things differently in the future. The process has been painful and uncomfortable at times and I had to take breaks and come back to it, but it has accelerated my personal growth dramatically. Really worth it.
 dry and unapplicable April 10, 2007
1 out of 8 found this review helpful
I found this book quite disappointing, because I found the author's writing style quite dry and not applicable to my life, because it tried to dissect everything down into pieces. Measurements alter the state of the system, and I think this is especially true for relationships: Don't think *too* hard about them, or you will forget to have fun. Which relationship can survive if you don't primarily enjoy being together? So I think this book will help grow the already overly large group of over-thinkers.
4 years of practicing what I learned - amazing results!!! March 30, 2007
10 out of 10 found this review helpful
I read this book 4 years ago when my marriage of 11 years ended. My goal was to understand what happened in my relationship and make sure I didn't make the same mistake again. This was one of about 20 books I read and literally the only one that I still practice what I learned everyday. I would love to boil it down to the key elements, but I strongly recommend taking this book to heart and going through the entire process. Also, it is important to be honest with yourself when Hendrix asks the tough questions. I also advise keeping this book and the notes you will write in a private place. If you're honest with yourself, you will be looking at yourself from the outside in. You will be completed and "whole" yourself and ready to be in a relationship. I also recommend that when you do find that next person, to encourage them to read this book, if not, at least employ some of key tactics, which you will pick up through reading the book. This is truly one of those books that has had a dramatically positive affect on my life.
