Great book on clearly describing low self esteem

This book was great in describing low self-esteem. Although I thought it was great in describing low self-esteem it was lacking in the solutions part how to actually make it grow. I guess that's in the workbook, that's unfortunately not available in audible.com

No correct chapter breaks

The content is excellent, and performance is fine, but there are only 4 "chapters" (the book has 10 chapters) and they don't line up with any true chapter beginnings or endings. I was using this in a group and couldn't participate until I got the Kindle version because I could never tell where the chapter began that we were on.

good information

This is a good book to help you understand low self esteem. If you or someone you love suffers, get this book.

Great audiobook

Effective exercises. The first step for me to overcome my depression; provided emotional interest and meaning for me, which I think is the first step. Second step is to work on negative thoughts (positive
self talk); i.e. slowly and steadily, but persistently, examining and talking back to those thoughts that tell you that you are rubbish, hopeless or a failure. Third step is to get a little help, guidance and support from either a friend, mentor, or mental health counselor. Supposedly, this plan should work because it's based on an article I believe in regarding depression, and I ran this article by one of my past therapists, and he commented that it was useful.

Good information, light on the solution....

If you could sum up Breaking the Chain of Low Self-Esteem in three words, what would they be?

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

Identify behaviors that result from low self-esteem.

Any additional comments?

More information on overcoming the issues would have been great.

Inspired

I thoroughly enjoyed this book as it gave “real life” examples of either party that suffers LSE. After, any example of a person with LSE, the author breaks down the positive opposite.

You will feel “attacked” as this is an emotion of defense, nonetheless it is to identify the issues for healthier way of thinking.

Good book and must hear again.

awesome book to read

awesome book to read. you will find things about yourself that you won't believe it exists in you.

This book seemed to make me feel worse

All I keep hearing is examples of low self esteem, but almost nothing on how to actually overcome it. This effectively makes me just think of negative situations, and not positive solutions. One of the worst books in self development I’ve read

Dont buy this if you want to listen on an ipod

Dont download these books if you want to listen on an ipod. Due to "security" they can only be used on cd's or on the computer and will not be converted to mp3 for ipods. Dont waste your money.

Abridged…😕

I missed that it’s an abridged version…distribution should be clearer. Please provide unabridged version.
