Pick Yourself Up: Overcome Setbacks and Maintain Focus on Your Life Journey Simon Templin

Publisher Marketing: Are we happy with the present, and with what we think the future holds for us? Most people will face devastating setbacks at some point: it's part of life. Often, what separates the successful and the happy from the rest is their resilience-their ability to pick themselves up and bounce back. In Pick Yourself Up, Simon Templin offers advice on how to get back on track at any point of your life, by telling his own story and reflecting on that experience. Dealing thematically with a range of topics focused on challenges relating to career, money, marriage, achieving your goals, and cultivating a positive attitude, it will show you how to live a purposeful life in which you never accept defeat. I've had many unforeseen setbacks in my life, which have caused me much grief. Now, as I continue the constant process of rebuilding, I'm working towards a situation where I can look back on everything that has happened and see that I've managed to overcome adversity at every step. This is not a biography, but it is the story of a fight to live a life that I could be proud of. It will encourage you to take a good look at where you are, to reject complacency, and to accept and take responsibility for what life has brought you. You alone are in control of your destiny. You choose the road on which you travel. Learn to make that choice actively, and soon you will feel like a new person, excited about what lies ahead of you in life. -Simon Templin
