A record for me.This book is uplifting, inspiring and true!!! I felt motivation I haven't felt in a long time since I read this book.

Summary: Dream Big
Review: This is a very inspiring book. When I initially started reading, it felt like just another feel good book with general advice. However as I progressed it picked up and became quite interesting. The advice given by the author is not new or unique, but offered in the context of her own life experiences, become very useful.
One shortcoming of this book, as for many books of this nature, is that it seems to address primarily a younger audience. What about the readers who are now in their mid-forties, early fifties and have less time to start over and be effective? Understandably the author is in her thirties, hence this shortcoming. Nevertheless, I wish I had a book like this available to me when I was in my twenties, because the ideas offered are inspiring and most valuable.

Summary: Great Reading!!
Review: Using experiences from her own life, Shaw shows you how to chart a course of personal and professional success. Actually, the book is part autobiography, part "how to." Including her early setbacks and how she overcame them is what gives the book "meat." She's also a risk taker. I loved reading about how she mustered the guts to do something nobody thought she could do. She does this quite a bit! Some books just give you empty platitudes about "positive thinking," but neglect to include examples of how to handle unexpected problems. Not Shaw. She tells it all!
