- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I really like this book for it's bluntness and conciseness on the BS we all do and the steps he recommends on change that. This book is full of tools and ways to do more self-affirmations and self-assertiveness. I also enjoyed the section on "unfuck" your relationships and thought it was helpful in highlighting the root of issues with many and the linkages of childhood trauma to the way we may act, think, and react. A great read!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Amazing Book, Must Read!
I highly recommend. I've read many self help books over the years, but this one is the one to read. It made me re-evaluate many aspects of my life, and I apply the knowledge that I've learned from this reading daily. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Insightful, layered, highly recommend! You won’t be disappointed in this book. Gives 7 great tips to help you become who you e always dreamed of being. This is my second reading of the material so I decided to leave a review. I’m off to integrate what I’ve refreshed on with the next book Doing the Work by the author, Gary.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I don’t care how many self-help books you have read, you’ve read NOTHING like this! It’s short, but bluntly to the point, and provides more “ah ha!” moments to consider, that it frankly might make your head spin! It has more actionable, as well as motivation, inspirational, and thought-provoking content then most books twice it’s length. A MUST READ!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Great book read it hear it just get into it
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great book I really enjoyed will read again soon

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Of course, yet another eye opening and enlightening book from Gary John Bishop that has helped me unf*ck myself. I am very grateful for what this book has taught me, and I will continue to revisit these words so they never leave me. I can’t recommend enough.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I have not read the first book in this series: Unfu*k Yourself: Get Out of Your Head and Into Your Life. The message that Gary John Bishop delivers has resonated with millions of people. He helps people identify the problems that keep people from achieving their goals. And he does it in such a no-nonsense, in-your-face, blatantly honest way. Do the Work: The Official Unrepentant, Ass-Kicking, No-Kidding, Change-Your-Life Sidekick to Unfu*k Yourself is the companion workbook to Unfu*k Yourself: Get Out of Your Head and Into Your Life. In this workbook, Bishop strives to help his readers to take the next step by helping to identify and understand some of the issues that block your personal progress by breaking it down into three categories: Self, People, and Purpose.Are you living your best life? Do you want to change the direction your life is taking? Are you being honest with yourself? Are you really, though? Sometimes we need a kick in the ass to get ourselves going. And Bishop does just that. I listened to this book on audio, and I really enjoyed it. I think having Bishop's voice in my ear is a real motivator. This book only took a little over two hours from start to finish, but it's also the kind of book that you want to listen to again and again. Especially when those destructive behaviors start to creep back in.There are so many things we can't control in this life. However, we can control ourselves, our actions, and how we deal with problems. But sometimes we get in our own way of success. Are you ready to do the work? Are you ready to stop making excuses? Then it's time to listen to Do the Work: The Official Unrepentant, Ass-Kicking, No-Kidding.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I loved Un Fu*k Yourself and this one made it even better. His tone works for me, he's not saying anything new he's just saying it crisp and clear. His method is one of self responsibility, woah image being responsible for your own life and not playing. the blame game No one is going to save you, save yourself, lift yourself stop being a fu*king baby. Being stuck sucks, get up do the work and make your life more.Yeh I loved it.
