The title aptly summarizes the concept of Mr. Firmender’s book. He submits that our lives are always changing with new challenges to surmount. He adds that If your life is out of balance when changes occur,  you will become further out of balance and therefore not your best self.

          The Introduction opens with, “I want to introduce you to someone – Me.” Mr. Firmender explains how he came to write this first book and why he knows, not just thinks, it will benefit you. As I read, I felt as if I was listening to someone who cared about my success in finding balance in life.

In other words, by absorbing the key points of each chapter, you will be inspired to rearrange your life to become your best self. You may discover how to become your best self as you read and absorb this self-help book.

          This book is organized logically, sensibly and in a friendly manner. The author gives examples of highly successful people and how their thinking made them successful. Walt Disney is quoted in the Goal Setting and Achieving chapter, “The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.”   

          Every chapter gives the whys and wherefores: ideas, inspiration and tools to aid in accomplishing another piece of your life success. As a reader, you have the option of using this book as a course in life management. You will learn why it’s important to think about and to write your life mission. You will also learn why it’s important to write your life vision. and how mission and vision differ.  

          The back of the book lists 15 books to read for success in life. At the end of the list, there is a bonus book: “My Next Book – Stay Tuned.” That illustrates Firmender’s attitude; he’s confident, yet humble with a big dash of humor. And that’s how he writes. He imparts information and knowledge in a highly understandable manner that you will become totally immersed in.

          Mr. Firmender’s book is recommended reading for anyone at any age or station in life. It’s a sure way to assess your life and plan your personal and/or business success. According to a quote that the author uses, “An idiot with a plan can beat a genius without a plan.” Warren Buffett
