Product Description
From Library Journal
Jeffers, a popular workshop leader and author of the best-selling Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway (Harcourt, 1987), wants to show her readers, basically, how to "go with the flow." She argues that even in the face of adversity, people do?and the reader can?live a joyful life. No one would argue that inner peace is not a worthy goal, and, indeed, works on the subject have growing appeal. Yet this book is curiously uninspiring and at times even fails to hold the reader's interest. Its best points are its intention and the quotations that appear at the start of each chapter. Barbara DeAngelis said it better in Real Moments (LJ 9/1/94). Only those public libraries where Jeffers has a following need to purchase this one.?January Adams, Franklin Twp. P.L., Somerset, N.J.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Disappointing,
By Rion (Alameda, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: End the Struggle and Dance with Life: How to Build Yourself Up When the World Gets You Down (Paperback)
I have read and highly appreciated two of Jeffers previous books: "Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway", and "Dare to Connect". I would give both of those books 5 stars. Unfortunately, as good as Dare to Connect is, it remains out of print and, I believe, this was the motivating force behind writing End the Struggle. It is basically a merging of the two books, yet it does not seem to have the energy and intensity, often coming off a bit naive or pollyannaish.For me, it was just a review of what I'd read in the previous two books and therefore of little value. It's not fair for me to rate it lower on that alone, however. No, it's lower energy combined with the publisher's trick of reintroducing "Dare to Connect" principles (which is available online used) is what bothered me. We see this a lot. An author writes another book that is basically a rehash of another, or tries to present the same views a little differently just so the public will think it's a "new" book.

A Diamond in a sea of Zircons,
By MR HS Luke (London United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: End the Struggle and Dance with Life: How to Build Yourself Up When the World Gets You Down (Paperback)
Susan Jeffers is an incredibly gifted and creative writer. This book has, to spout the usual cliche, changed my life. Coupled with Embracing Uncertainty it has the power to bring clarity to the most confused and troubled psyche but more importantly to spur you on to greater efforts at achieving peace and wonder in a tough world. This is a spiritual text and her message is a consistent spiritual one.A very beautiful and loving and sustaining book. I highly recommend it.
4.0 out of 5 stars

This book reached out to me at a difficult time in my life and helped me. The title is somewhat dramatic but Susan Jeffers writes fantastically. She has many books which are uplifting. Recommended unreservedly.
