Critic reviews

"Refreshingly honest, [Michal] doesn't project a veneer of perfection but rather shatters the illusion that perfection is something to strive for. The format of the book allows for self-reflection at one's own pace, making it very approachable for readers of any or no religious persuasion." – Booklist

"This is a magnificent book – combining the best of rigorous self-reflection, professional and personal counsel and Jewish wisdom. Michal Oshman shows, in this beautifully construed, wisely informed and always engrossing work, how Jewish wisdom can serve its intended purpose – practical guidance – en route to making one's life happier, more fulfilling and better." – Mark Gerson, Co-Founder and Chairman, United Hatzalah and author of the Los Angeles Times bestseller, The Telling

Very practical book and lessons on how focussing on others and making their lives better is the true purpose in life by using one's talents to improve the world

Great book.

Very refreshing way to deal with difficult parts of life keeping in mind that you are made up of many parts and your emotional and spiritual parts are not less important than your physical and intellectual parts.
Combining modern ways of coaching high-achievers and ancient wisdom of Judaism. Thank you
