by David Rendall
This book came to me at a time that I was still grieving my mother’s death. A combination of factors brought me to the conclusion that life is too short to be someone I’m not. It is impossible to please everyone and as this book teaches, when you choose who to please you also choose who you will offend.
It is okay to be different and to go against the grain of life. I have been much more forthcoming since my mother died and I have lost many so-called friends as well as gaining deeper relationships through my authenticity. I have received criticism and encouragement from facebook friends for my controversial posts (not to mention being deleted and blocked by several as well). But I feel, as Rendall says, that this is more likely to help me stand out as a unique writer and become successful, than not.
The ideas presented in this book are “outside the box” and I take my hat off to Rendall even if I don’t agree with every statement. It is positive, uplifting and funny!
