Don’t get me wrong. Just because it’s fun, delightful, colorful, and has a killer personality doesn’t mean there isn’t a great deal of substance here, because there is. The fact that it has a great deal of fun serving up the wonderful nuggets of self growth simply means that you’ll stay with them all the way to the end. I can’t imagine anyone bailing on this book midway – you’d be too afraid of missing what might come next!

Top 10 Things I Love About The Swiss Cheese Theory of Life:
- The book has such a positive vibe it floats off of the pages. There’s no negativity, scare tactics, or heavy handed advice.
- The authors treat important matters as important matters but don’t take things overly seriously. Life’s fun and this book doesn’t just “get” that, it celebrates it.
- I look at reading as sitting down and having a friendly visit with an author or authors. These authors are great company and I’m hoping for more collaborations.
- This book is highly interactive, inviting the reader to think, solve, and resolve. We don’t grow when others do all the thinking for us!
- There are many fascinating quotes, illustrations, and examples. The lively writing is compelling.
- There are FUN illustrations and even comics. LOVE that!
- The book reads very fast, but doesn’t at all feel like “fast food.” It’s fine dining quality but can be read by even the busiest person in no time at all.
- The authors show you how to take complete control of your life and bring the changes about that YOU want – not the changes someone else wants for you. Very important.
- The authors take good ole human emotions and short-comings into consideration. Very often they hit you with your excuses before they’ve even completely formed in your mind! Best of all, they offer solutions.
- Last, but certainly not least, this book shows that it is never, ever too late. Lifelong mistakes or even even consistent shortcomings can be turned around. The ship can be “righted” and.. guess what… we’re at the helm!
