TEASER TUESDAYS :
hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading ~
"Listen, this isn't about being everything to everybody. There are dozens of books on the market that say, "You can have it all! You can do it all!"
You and I both know what the problem with that is -- it just doesn't work. But there is a big difference between devoting yourself to being a great mother, wife and worker and giving up on your dreams completely."
[Let me jump in here and say that this is an empowering teaser, Kathi is telling us that we can be great and still achieve our dreams, then she proceeds to share with us how we can manage both in a realistic way. I'm loving this book! ~ Wendi]
~ page 14 “The Me Project: 21 Days to Living the Life You've Always Wanted" by Kathi Lipp
About the Book (from Amazon):
Most women in the midst of careers, marriage, raising children, and caring for parents set their personal goals aside. The Me Project provides women with fun and creative ways to bring back the sense of purpose and vitality that comes with living out the plans and dreams God has planted in their hearts. Kathi Lipp’s warm tone and laugh-out-loud humor will motivate women to take daily steps toward bringing purpose back into their lives and give them the confidence they can do it in spite of busy schedules.I always look forward to reading everyone's teasers! ~ Wendi
A woman who reads and applies The Me Project will
* discover the unique plan God has for her life and her role as a wife, mother, worker, or volunteer
* gather a community of like-minded women who want to make their goals a priority
* change her attitudes toward her roles in life, as well as how she approaches her personal goals
This handy guide coaches women to do one simple thing toward achieving their goals each day for three weeks, bringing a sense of vitality and exhilaration back into their lives.
