Review : INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "This book will change lives." --Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love From the host of the award-winning MarieTV and The Marie Forleo Podcast, an indispensable handbook for becoming the creative force of your own life. While most self-help books offer quick fixes, Everything is Figureoutable will retrain your brain to think more creatively and positively in the face of setbacks. In the words of Cheryl Strayed, it's "a must-read for anyone who wants to face their fears, fulfill their dreams, and find a better way forward." If you're having trouble solving a problem or reaching a dream, the problem isn't you. It's that you haven't yet installed the one belief that changes everything. Marie's mom once told her, "Nothing in life is that complicated. You can do whatever you set your mind to if you roll up your sleeves. Everything is figureoutable." Whether you want to leave a dead end job, break an addiction, learn to dance, heal a relationship, or grow a business, Everything is Figureoutable will show you how. You'll learn: The habit that makes it 42% more likely you'll achieve your goals. How to overcome a lack of time and money. How to deal with criticism and imposter syndrome. It's more than just a fun phrase to say. It's a philosophy of relentless optimism. A mindset. A mantra. A conviction. Most important, it's about to make you unstoppable. Read more
Review : Marie's energy is infectious and contagious. I derive a tremendous amount of inspiration from watching people walk the walk and from those who take on increasing challenges for their own lives. Marie lives this to the fullest, and walks the walk—she has, over the past decade and beyond, systematically brought rigor, play, and drive to her work in business and marketing, and continues to level up in everything that she does. She may not even know how many lives she touches because of what she has built. For me personally, I had a fascinating emotional journey and reaction while reading the book. I was hooked in the beginning and had a "hell yeah!" response. Like, YEAH, I can DO THIS. Then, for some reason I started to get angry in the middle—I don't know why; perhaps it's because I was starting to feel overwhelmed by how much work there is to do and how freaking hard it can be to overcome some of life's obstacles. There's something overwhelming, too, about reading so many journeys of success and feeling internally like "Well, shit, I don't have it figured out yet—look how many people have done so much with so little, so who the heck am I?" I think this is totally normal, to be honest, and I see that some of the other reviewers have experienced this as well. At the end of the day, making work in the world can be HARD, and full of doubts. So I put the book down for a few days—it had been a series of late nights with sick kids and slamming my head against a wall trying to figure out my latest business offering all the while working on a never-ending book proposal that's challenging me deeply on a regular basis—basically I wanted to chuck this book across the room. Figuring out what to do next is the work of a lifetime. And it can be excruciating, it can be hard, and it can be devastating, and it can be lonely. I found my way back to the book and kept reading bit by bit. I found reading a few pages a day was best—I read from 8pm-8:15pm, until I could barely keep my eyes open and fell asleep with the ideas. Consuming it this way was best; each idea or nugget filtered into my subconscious. Too much felt overwhelming, and I'm an ambitious lady. The thing is, adopting a belief like this might be easy for some people. And it might be really REALLY hard for other people. It's hard to take full ownership of your next steps in life, ESPECIALLY when you've been dealt a shit sandwich for cards. By the end of reading it, my husband asked me what I thought of the book and I said "You know, I really dig it. I needed this book in my life right now." I'm glad I bought it. WHO THIS BOOK IS FOR: Read this if you want to uplevel your belief systems and challenge yourself to grow. You must be willing to do some inner work and stay in the game when shit gets uncomfortable. Read it serially (bit by bit) if it gets overwhelming. If negative thoughts come up while reading, journal them and write them down: you might learn something new about yourself. WHO IT IS NOT FOR: If you're looking for an easy answer or a step-by-step solution, this isn't the book. This is about a bigger philosophical, mental, mindset shift and it takes guts. Sometimes adopting a new mindset can be like turning on a light switch. Other times it feels like re-doing the electrical wiring in your house, and can take longer to do. Both versions are worth it. I'd also say that this book might not be for you if you're really at the bottom of the barrel. It can be infuriating to hear that everything is figureoutable when you're getting knocked down by a bunch of waves—nothing feels great about having someone on the beach shout at you to keep going when you're getting slammed around in your first surf lesson. If your heart is broken or you're recovering from loss, or you're in a place where psychotherapy or deeper support is what's needed, I'd look first to books like Michael Singer's "Untethered Soul," Pema Chodron's "When Things Fall Apart," Parker Palmer's "Let Your Life Speak" or Viktor Frankl's "Man's Search For Meaning." Let yourself experience and process your heartbreak and hurt. Then, when you've found your way back to a more stable heart and a mind ready to grab onto the change you CAN make, and the things you CAN control, and you want a combination of ass-kicking to propel you in your leadership journey, check out this book. You need to find the right messenger for you. Sometimes we can't hear something until Judge Judy tells us (or, as Marie says in the book, it might take a new friend to say something other people have been telling you all along.) Marie's style is a match for my kind of business brain, and she's been a huge help in my journey, even though I don't think I've ever told her this yet. This book might stir up some feelings in you. That might be a good thing.
