| "We think our future is shaped by big events - the decisions we make the thoughts we have - but this book will show that it is our daily actions the things we repeatedly do that are the key Repeat an action enough times and it will become a habit but habits lack thought consideration and presence To ensure long-lasting meaningful change our actions need to be filled with a sense of personal meaning purpose and power - they need to be ritualized Creating personal ritual in our lives allows us to bring the presence of the sacred into the everyday The rituals in this book have been created and designed as symbolic acts providing a framework for anyone to use to create positive change in their lives The 7 morning rituals are designed to help you 'wake with determination'; the 7 afternoon rituals focus on 'living on purpose'; and the 7 evening rituals focus on 'retiring with satisfaction'"

| "Many of us have a tendency to measure our self-worth by comparing ourselves to others But when we fail to reach our own families communities or societies 'ideals' this often results in feelings of inadequacy anxiety and low mood We may become self-critical experience shame and a sense of being different from others Although an improvement in 'self-esteem' is what we may feel we want this is not necessarily what we need This is because self-esteem is often associated with times when things are going well but can fail us when things do not go to plan In contrast self-confidence built from self-compassion can help us when things are going well and make us more resilient when things are difficultThis book uses the ideas and practices of Compassion Focused Therapy to help build self-confidence Attention is also paid to difficulties that often come hand in hand with lack of self-confidence such as anxiety depression substance use and anger"
