Review ::

Achieve Anything In Just One Year: Be Inspired Daily to Live Your Dreams and Accomplish Your Goals by Jason Harvey is an inspiring book that can help you change your life one day at a time. This book is intended to be read on a daily basis (one page per day) for a whole year. Each day begins with an inspiring quote (which I love), and follows with questions to get your mind pondering, a mini lesson, and an “assignment” for the day. I really like that this book is meant to be taken one day at a time. I feel that too often self improvement books are meant to be read all at once and it’s usually a lot of information to take in at the same time. So you read the book in a week, take it all in, and forget half of it because of the massive amount of content and end up with no help that you were looking for to begin with. But this book is different. With only one page to read a day, the message is short, but very powerful and motivating.

I have only been reading this book for two weeks now (I began on February 8) and I have already learned quite a bit about myself. On day 1 your assignment is to begin a notebook of dreams in which you write down everything you wish to do, even if it seems impossible at the time. This notebook has shown me some new sides of me — new things I never would have thought I’d like to do, which is very interesting. I really enjoy the critical thinking questions that are asked each day. Some of them I have even written down in a notebook, along with my answer. Self discovery is important to me, so I’m glad that I was introduced to this book and I feel as though I’m on a positive journey forward in my life.

Achieve Anything In Just One Year is an excellent tool for learning how to set goals and stick to them and staying motivated throughout the year to achieve your goals. Even though self improvement books tend to have a negative stigma attached,you shouldn’t let that stop you from reading them. Not all self improvement books need to be embarrassing to be seen reading, especially this one. If anything, this book can help you feel more confident about yourself and you can begin to help motivating others through what you learn.
