There are many self-help books on the shelves nowadays and more are added each day. So here is what seems to be yet another one...but this book is different, special. Why? Because its author is different, 'extra'! "Think Upside Down" is narrated as an autobiography. The author, Marie-Anne Rase, who is, amongst other things, a NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) practitioner, a mentor, a business analyst as well as a mother of three adult children raised all by herself tells it as it is. She goes through the journey of her life from being a child up to a grandmother when, at 54 years old, she feels the urge to write this book. Even if the book is about her, her, her (after all, it is her autobiography!) the reader is not bored. She forces admiration by the way of how she struggles facing challenges, learning from them and always moving ahead, no turning back no matter what. She guides the reader to view life experiences from a different angle and turn them upside down. Her philosophy, her mindset and her way of thinking is not that of everyone. The reader can perceive her happiness, her gratefulness to life and how she feels she is on the right track to her self-realisation.
At the end of her book, the author shares with the reader 10 tips or guidelines which may help him or her go through the challenges of daily life and face them positively. So read the book, learn, inwardly digest...and most of all, enjoy!
