Change Starts Within You by Cortney McDermott

I don’t think there’s anyone that doesn’t want to change something about their life. Whether it’s personal or business activities, there’s always an opportunity to improve. I know I have many areas that I need to work on. This prompted me to want to review a self-help motivational book written by a business owner who made a big change in her life.

Change starts within you is not only something that we hear often, but now it is a tangible book that can help you start working on the process of improvement.

Cortney McDermott had it all–a rising career at a Fortune 500 company, a loving husband, the Jimmy Choos. To an outsider, she was living the dream. But inside, her mind was racing from meetings to e-mails to childcare, and her thoughts were filled with self-doubt.

She had checked all the boxes, so why was it never enough? Why wasn’t her dream life sustainable?

Forced to rethink what it means to be successful, Cortney realized that it’s not about achieving goal after goal. It’s about learning to sustain yourself. To live a life of purpose, you must first look within.

Whatever your aspirations might be, Cortney’s journey will encourage you to make them a reality. With a fresh take on personal empowerment, inspiring anecdotes, and introspective tools and exercises to help you rebuild confidence in your life’s vision, Change Starts Within You teaches us to look inside ourselves to create a brighter tomorrow.

Review of Change Starts Within You by Cortney McDermott

When I first got this book, I flipped through it and saw a lot of quotes that were familiar. So I wasn’t quite sure how much this book was going to encourage me. After all, I do read a lot of these books.

But when I sat down and started actually reading (go figure), I realized that while the content may be familiar to those who read business or self-help motivational books, the author does have unique positions and takes the extra step in identifying areas for improvement and how to actually make changes.

The book itself is small. However, it is packed with great thoughts and even a few activities that helps to designate what you need to work on in your personal or business life. Especially since they interact so much today.

Change Starts Within You is actually perfect for finding the balance everywhere in your life. From health to finances to family issues or negativity, this book has some positive applications that can make a difference.

Easy and quick to read with a good layout, this book is made to interact with and even read again and again. I found a few things that made an impression on me. Worth checking out for sure.
