You don't need to be blind to benefit from the insights provided in this great "little" book (only 111 pages!) It is clearly written, easy to understand, and perfect for all ages. The author is a great public speaker, and now, an equally great writer! A few years ago I heard him speak at a conference, and was inspired to get out of my rut and begin living the life of my dreams...without the self-imposed limitations and negative and defeating "self-talk" that I was not even aware I was doing...and it was easy! I always wished his stories were available in a book that I could tuck into my bag and read in snips and starts during my day. Well, this is that book! In Insights, Colbert cuts right to the truth of why we struggle with constant change, and explains in everyday, nonthreatening words how our attitudes, emotions, and ideas keep us from experiencing life to the fullest. Insights contains a dozen funny and inspriational short stories, all set within the very personal story of a blind man learning to "see" his life. Every page...and just about every paragraph contains something meaningful, motivational, and thought-provoking, but this is not just another "how to feel good" or "pump-you-up" self-help guide. This is a "real life" story of a "real life" person, just like you and me, and will help you think about your life and the simple choices you make everyday...and begin making decisions and choices that bring the happiness and joy you deserve. There's a BIG message in this wonderfully put together "little" book, which you're sure to turn to again and again for a little comic relief, a gentle kick in the right direction, or a good dose of "get over yourself." I recommend it for everyone, no matter where you are on the journey of self-discovery, but especially for people, young and old alike, who are struggling with a sudden and dramatic challenge or change in their life, and those who need a little inspirational "jump start" out of one of life's many little ruts.
