Reviews for Find Your Strongest Life

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Marcus Buckingham seems to really understand the struggles that women face. By understanding what struggles women face he is able to give us a plan on how to make our lives stronger. He gives advice on how to make every aspect of your life stronger: work, relationships, raising children, and personal life. I think the ideas make sense to some extent, but the ideas he presents go against all popular ideals. But I think that's the point, obviously what we've been told to do isn't working so a different plan of attack may just be what we need. I liked the ideas and have started to try and use them in my life. It was a fairly well-written book. The information is pretty straight forward and easy to understand. Overall I'd say this was a decent book.
