Trusting Yourself [EPUB ebook] 
Growing Your Self-Awareness, Self-Confidence, and Self-Reliance

In an age of constant media messages and so-called expert advice telling us to be richer, thinner, cleverer and faster, we’re all dogged with worry and self-doubt. Bestselling author, M. J. Ryan, believes we’ve become so dependent on "experts" to tell us how to live our lives that we listen to everyone except ourselves. In TRUSTING YOURSELF, Ryan identifies the answers to feeling swept away by life: understanding that we already have what it takes to cope and learning how to tap into the wisdom inside us by cultivating the three qualities of self-awareness, self-confidence and self-reliance. She teaches us how to set the critics aside and to trust ourselves instead. First she reveals the inner attitudes that nurture self-trust. If you accept that we learn through trial and error, if you believe that we each have unique strengths and that no one of us has to have them all, if you realise that labels only get in the way, then your self-trust will grow, your worries will shrink and you’ll find happiness and success with a lot less effort. This is a life coach in a book that readers can turn to again and again when stress or worry takes over to find more peaceful, saner lives every day.
