When Your Best Isn't Good Enough

By: Kevin Leman

Narrated by: Chris Fabry

Some people feel they don't measure up to anyone's expectations. As a result, they tend to procrastinate, set unrealistic goals, or continually try to please others.

With the positive, no-nonsense strategies offered in When Your Best Isn't Good Enough, listeners can raise their low self-perception and overcome these feelings of rejection and inadequacy.

Working in his well-known, upbeat style, Dr. Kevin Leman helps those who struggle with self-doubt to value their talents and gifts and accept their shortcomings. He points out why the lifestyle we develop as a child determines our degree of success or failure and explains how, regardless of the past, each person can develop a healthy lifestyle today. Dr. Leman also shows readers how to apply these same principles in raising children with healthy self-esteem.

Loved it! Great advice, great content.

I loved the book, I definitely recommend it. As a parent, I want to be able to spot any such patterns so I can help correct them in myself or my child.
And the narrator was great. Very lively. I felt like it could have been the author himself reading the book. i liked his intonation, very pleasant and engaging, not monotonous at all.

How to Overcome being a Perfectionist.

This book is a self help book, but an easy read. You do not have to have a degree in counseling in order to be able to apply the principles laid out to help you overcome the issue of being a perfectionist. An issue that most "first born" people usually have to deal with. I have shared this book with several of my friends because I also purchased the Kindle version as well. Love that feature about Audible and Kindle, don't you?

Therapy

I loved the voice of the reader, it was really engaging and it made me feel as if Kevin Lehman himself was reading the book! Also the information presented in the book made me feel like I was in my own private therapy sessions- it was extremely helpful and gave me the confidence and validation I needed to make more positive changes in my life.

Life changing

While I personally may not fully agree with the more religious aspects in this book, I still believe this book (or at least a more secular version) should be required reading for high school. Wisdom like this usually takes a lifetime to learn and yet here it all is, ripe for the picking.

Read other book from this author - enjoyed this!

Would you listen to When Your Best Isn't Good Enough again? Why?

Yes. Learned allot and enjoyed listening. I tried to listen shortly before turning in for the night; and as a result I probably dozed off and missed some content.
