Perfectly Yourself: 9 Lessons for Enduring Happiness

Perfectly Yourself: 9 Lessons for Enduring Happiness

â‚¬Å“Just be yourself!â‚¬Â People say it all the time, but how do we actually live it?

For more than a decade Matthew Kelly has been helping people discover the best version of themselves. Now, in Perfectly Yourself, he addresses the opportunities and obstacles that we encounter once we decide to ask lifeâ‚¬s big questions: Who am I? What am I here for? Focusing on nine powerful and practical lessons, Kelly shows us how to find lasting happiness in a changing world.

We all have an insatiable need to grow and improve: Every year millions of us buy books and attend workshops in the hope that we will lose weight, improve our relationships, conquer debt, accomplish more in our careers, achieve financial independence, reach spiritual enlightenment, become better parents or loversâ‚¬â€œthe list goes on. We yearn for progress. And yet, many of us fail to achieve the transformations we desire.

â‚¬Å“People donâ‚¬t fail because they want to fail,â‚¬Â Kelly explains. â‚¬Å“People donâ‚¬t go on a diet because they want to get fat. People donâ‚¬t get married to get divorced. Whether we are dealing with health and wellness, relationships, finances, spirituality, or career, people want to advance. Personal development animates us, brings us to life. In many cases one diet is as good as the next. One financial plan is as good as another. People are smart enough to work out which are the best, but still so many fail. We have to ask ourselves: Why?

â‚¬Å“Fundamental to all transformation is understanding the dynamics of change so that we can be aware of the obstacles and opportunities that await us when we attempt to transform an area of our lives.â‚¬Â

Kelly teaches us how to find the balance between accepting ourselves for who we are and challenging ourselves to become all we are capable of being. He encourages us to unify the many aspects of our lives, and reveals how to move beyond other peopleâ‚¬s expectations of who and what we should be.

Perfectly Yourself is for anyone who has ever failed at a diet, survived the collapse of a relationship, or wondered if he or she will ever find a fulfilling career. Itâ‚¬s a book for all of us who long to be at peace with who we are, where we are, and what we are doing, not in some distant tomorrow but here and nowâ‚¬â€œtoday.
