Review

The best self-help book I've read...everyone should read this ― Health Plus

Reading this book was a revelation. It's a wonderful book for life ― Julie Walters, actress

If you have trouble taking risks and need help read Feel The Fear And Do It Anyway ― Daily Express

Like the title says, just go for it ― Elle

Feel The Fear And Do It Anyway will help turn your fear into confidence and action ― Deidre Sanders, The Sun

From the Back Cover

What is stopping you from being the person you want to be and living your life the way you want to live it?

Fear of tackling an issue with your boss, fear of getting to grips with a problem in your home. Fear of change. Fear of taking control...

Everyone has these fears, and they run throughout our lives. Susan Jeffers' inspiring and mould-breaking book shows how to break this Catch 22 cycle and work through fear to a resolution. Feel the fear, she argues, but do it anyway.

Dr Jeffers' simple but profound techniques have inspired thousands to turn their anger into love - and their indecision into action.

'Whether your fear relates to work or relationships you can learn to accept and push through it, rather than see it as a barrier to success' Cosmopolitan

Feel The Fear and Do It Anyway by Susan Jeffers.
Feel The Fear! This fits into the 'Book that Intimidates Me' part of my life. I have had it on my shelf for a long while. I picked it up a few different times and decided the time wasn't right.
I had another book that was crying out to be read. I needed to go out and forgot to look at it again. I mean can you think of an excuse? I did. Intimidating? 'spose so.
Doozy
Susan Jeffers has written a doozy. This is the bee’s knees. Whatever that means.
As I have said a number of times before in reviewing books - there are gems on every page. I had to stop highlighting sentences and bookmarking pages on my kindle as I just about ran out of space.
Some Highlights:
• The Pain to Power Continuum. An awesome tool. Look it up.
• “… when you blame any outside force for any of your experience of life, you are literally giving away all your power and thus creating pain, paralysis and depression.”
• “See if you can week without criticising anyone, or complaining about anything.”
• “STOP FEEDING YOURSELF NEGATIVE THOUGHTS. Negative thoughts take away your power … and thus make you more paralysed from your fear.”
• “Each time the plane strayed off course, the system corrected it.”
• “Don't be deceived into thinking that by changing the external, the internal will be changed. It works the other way round.”
And MANY more. It is so inspiring.
Inspiring – Read Over and Over
A book that needs to be read a few times. A book that can change your life. I know that is a cliché, but clichés become so because they happen a lot. One thing is certain “Nothing Changes, If Nothing Changes.”
I don't know if you want a new life, but if you do, this book is for you.
It is written in plain language, and is easy to understand.
Exercises:
There are plenty of actual exercises for you to try (or not) depending on your own personal level of committent to change. The insights are astounding.

A classic, one of the best self help books ever. It has dated a bit but the relevance has not. A realistic approach to the age old question of "What is the worst that can happen?"

Worth all the praise and glowing reviews. I loved this book and strongly recommend it. There's great understanding of what makes us fearful and how much we stand in our own way, and importantly, a lot of patience with ourselves for overcoming it. I'll be referring to this and returning to it for a long time =)

1.0 out of 5 stars Wishy Washy blabber word. Not helpful if you have real anxiety/discomfort
Reviewed in Australia on 28 March 2024
Verified Purchase
I will summarize the book for you. "You are responsible for everything. You fear something, so what? get up and just do it."
That's it. That is all there is to this book. May be helpful for people who are not mentally struggling but just avoiding some things in life like uninspiring job, unhappy relationship etc. BUT definitely not helpful if you have some anxiety/fear/mental health issues.
A real book on how to actually help yourself to get up and do it using mindfulness and some exercises to practice would have been better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hits Home….in many ways
Reviewed in the United States on 24 August 2022

Some context: I am on page 84 of 167. I am age 60 and have had a useful career as a professional. Even so, there is still pervasive and paralyzing fear. Can I retire? Why do I feel so unsatisfied? Why do I feel “behind” or out of touch? I don’t like the way the world is changing, do I have to change with it? I want to keep earning, but a I really don’t feel like learning “new fangled” stuff. Will we have enough money? Etc etc….

From my view, this is an outstanding book and every chapter thus far has provided valuable insights that I will be required to read again, then again and then again. I am not going to beat myself up, but this book has pinpointed so many of my areas of weakness that it is uncanny. The first read, which I am still navigating, provides the possibilities and the hope. I see I can improve and grow….but I have to reiterate that you will need to read this book over and over to continue burning the concepts in….it is work.

Given all of that, I would say this is the best book of analysis and self-help I personally have read and I have read A LOT! I say that because I differentiate between platitudes and straight talk and actionable skills to learn. There are many “cheerleading” books and those also are valuable….and there is some cheerleading in this book as well, but there is also a heck of a lot of straight talk and actionable content.

I certainly don’t like some parts of the book - for instance the part accepting of leaving children while one goes back to school. I don’t know what age the children were so there could be some conjecture on my part, but if an individual wants children, my take is that a parent needs to be there for 18 years….sure, when they are 18 then go back and grow and make the world your stage.

I can’t recommend this book enough even after only half of it - and I will be reading this one in Perpetuity….a confident 5 out of 5 stars.

Thank You Dr Jeffers for a brilliant work….

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointment
Reviewed in Poland on 20 August 2023
Verified Purchase
I am so disappointed with this book but it is my fault for not checking this book out ,before buying it.

I have seen reviews from people that this book have helped them with anxiety.
Well, I guess some people don’t really know what anxiety is then. Yet I would say, I am a person that does not have severe anxiety.

This book has only two chapters about anxiety and one good exercise. Then, the book goes many different places.

This book felt more like help for people, who would love to do something in their life but nobody told them they could. If you have anxiety, you know it ain’t that simple.

ALSO!
This book has this kind of victim blaming/ telling you to not be mad/sad/ in despair attitude. There is a quote about, how if your friend is always late it is your problem you, you are choosing to be mad. Also there is an exercise that if you are mad about your situation, you should sit and imagine yourself feeling good about this situation.
