In this no-fluff guide, clinical psychologist-turned-writer Boyes (The Anxiety Toolkit) addresses self-defeating behaviors, such as constantly questioning oneself and always feeling as if one is plagued with bad luck. The author helps readers identify negative patterns while capitalizing on the positive aspects of their personalities and converting those traits into constructive actions. She offers a multitude of examples of how people self-sabotage and provides remedies for removing "thinking blind spots" and ways to understanding our "relationship attachment style." VERDICT Practical charts and step-by-step suggestions for behavioral changes make this a helpful resource for spotting errors in thinking and implementing strategies for changing course.
