5.0 out of 5 stars A Raw Look into the Reality of You, Mar 15 2008
By 
Greg Morrison (Halifax, Canada) - See all my reviews
This book is simply amazing! Debbie Ford's best yet! It really does explain that which we choose all to often to ignore in ourselves. We must begin to tune in to who we are at our core. We allow our egos to run the show in our individual lives, and the consequences, as mentioned in this book, are both evident and prolific in our daily lives. What she offers is a method of healing, infused with love and compassion for EVERY quality of our selves and the qualities we project onto others. A must read.. this book has the ability to bring awareness to our higher self.

5.0 out of 5 stars A starkly confronting read..., Mar 14 2008
By WhollyMan - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Why Good People Do Bad Things (Hardcover)
Having been a student of personal growth and transformational work for years, I can sometimes feel pretty smug about my own mental/spiritual/emotional state of affairs. After reading this book, I'm now quite aware that I'm still far from done with my personal journey of self-awareness and self-love. That despite what I'd like to believe, I still have many limiting and damaging tendencies lurking under the surface. Turns out that the together, nice-guy, intellectual persona I've been so proud of, is nothing more than mask that I still hide behind to conceal my shame. Ouch.

Debbie Ford uses the pages of her newest work to expertly cut through the illusions of good and bad, right and wrong, real and unreal. She quickly gets to the root of the most significant problem plaguing the world today - the effects of toxic shame, and the inability of people to accept and make peace with the totality of who they are - both the light and the dark. She points to the internal split that results, as the cause of an on-going conflict within each one of us. She explains the unconscious mechanisms that inexhorably draw us into a range of negative and destructive behaviors that will continue to plague us until the split is healed and the conflict resolved. Fortunately, Ms. Ford also offers useful concepts, tools and antidotes for making peace and returning to wholeness.

One can choose to read this book and be fascinated intellectually by the ideas presented without taking personal action. Or one can choose to use it as a catalyst to explore their inner world, make new choices and ultimately become more authentic and whole. I recommend the latter.

5.0 out of 5 stars a chilling exploration of why we do what we do, Mar 13 2008
By Bethany - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Why Good People Do Bad Things (Hardcover)
I bought this book because I respect Debbie Ford's work and I wanted to understand why I seem to sabotage my progress just as I am about to take a giant leap forward. Why do I push people away when I say I want more intimacy in my life? Why do I spend money on triffles when I am trying to save to buy a home?

I have long felt that there are "two" sides of me that are vying for my attention. This book explains with incredible detail just how true this is. Nearly every page sent chills up my spine.

"Why Good People Do Bad Things: How to Stop Being Your Own Worst Enemy" helped me to understand the hidden causes of my own self-sabotage and more importantly, gave me the spiritual antidotes needed to steer my choices in a more positive direction.

5.0 out of 5 stars A FABULOUS BOOK!, Mar 15 2008
By E. Henry Brown - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Why Good People Do Bad Things (Hardcover)
Another FABULOUS book by Debbie Ford.. and very possibly her best and most helpful to date. If you find the recent headlines about Eliot Spitzer or Larry Craig perplexing, or simply would like to understand why you do things, both subtle and obvious, to undermine yourself and sabotage your own success, you need to look no further than the 243 pages of this remarkable book. Everything you need to know is here, including how to once and for all release yourself from the mire of self destructive, self defeating behavior. This is a true Godsend!
