I read book reviews on amazon before I purchase books, in order to ensure that I am getting books that have helped the most people. I figure there's strength in numbers, in a manner of speaking. That's half the reason I ordered this book by Maria Forleo -- good reviews. The other half of the reason was the title: Make Every Man Want You. Who could resist a title like that? It was too intriguing to pass up! I wanted to know what these so-called secrets were.
Sadly, this was indeed a case of GREAT marketing... way too great. The title completely oversold the book. What I expected to read was a helpful guide overviewing some of the pitfalls that trip up women and make them self-sabotage on dates. What I found instead was a useless pep talk written by someone who honestly comes across as a 20-year-old college cheerleader. "You're so fabulous!!" and "You are an amazing, irresistable woman!" scream up at you from every page until you want to shake the book and throw it against the wall. Honestly. I wanted to yell, "I know that! I have a graduate degree, I'm not a moron! Tell me something useful." I completely agree with the reviewer who said that Forleo doesn't present a single original idea in this entire book. It's basically a book of other people's thoughts cobbled together in the peppy cheerleader voice. Some highlights:
-- You're irresistable!
-- Live in the moment! That's all there is!
-- Embrace your is-ness (does this remind ANYONE else of You, Me and Dupree when Owen Wilson becomes famous for his series of books and lectures on "harnessing your inner 'ness'"??? No? Just me?
I felt compelled to write something after I read the two negative reviews among the 3 "Most Helpful", which may prevent many from benefiting from the sage advice this book has to offer. I had low expectations for this book. I thought it would tell me to go to the gym, dress sexier, and make eye contact. It offered much, much more.
There are parts to the two negative reviews that I acknowledge and do agree with, which are: 1) the book is told in a peppy cheerleader tone which is at times, annoying and distracting, 2) The underlying messages in the book are few, simple, and straightforward. But if you can ignore the way the message is delivered, you can focus on the actual message. And even if the messages are few and simple, that doesn't mean they're not worth reading or applying in your life.
I'm actually only halfway through the book, but I really liked this fact the author shared with us: "Humans have approx. 50-60,000 thoughts per day. 95% of those thoughts are the same ones we had yesterday. This thinking is repetitive, illusory, and toxic." I do believe women get into these self-perpetuating cycles of complaining and perceived helplessness toward certain areas of life. This type of thinking is pervasive and we'd all be better off without it. This book wakes you up to it, and pep-talks you into shedding complacency with mediocrity, and becoming accountable for (the results in) and fully engaged in all areas of your life. Beyond this, it also gives *terrific* relationship tips. Easier to say/read than to follow, but this book is not a quick fix. It is for those of us who want to improve the quality and meaning in our lives/relationships.
