Approval Addiction (Abridged): Overcoming Your Need to Please Everyone Audiobook

" I would have only given this book 4 stars, but I didn't want the author to get mad at me. I'm kidding, of course. I need to keep this book nearby just to remind me every so often that there are so many different values and interests that people have, and there's no way to please everybody. There are a lot of talented people doing their thing, yet their thing may not be something that interests me in the least. The same is true for what I can do. "

" This book is awesome well worth reading :) "

" Thought this was a very good book. Deals with insecurity issues. "

" 10.16.12: Passed this book on to a church rummage sale. "

" It dragged on a lot, but the message was great. "

" Very applicable and timely. "

" This is probably my favorite book by Joyce Meyers. It's about putting God's approval above people, but of course, not in a rude way, ignoring people's feelings, but in a loving way. Help you not let people's opinions get in the way of the journey God put you on. "

" I loved it. I cried. She is a very intelligent and insightful woman and I felt that I was in a room listening to her talk to ME when i read the book. I highly recommend this book to everyone. "

" Learned soooo much from this book! "

" one of joyce's best books "

" I love EVERYTHING Joyce Meyer! "

" This is like a wonderful workbook to keep our motives straight, our thinking clear, and our heart turned to Christ vs. seeking man's approval. We all seem to get in the approval-trap from time to time and this pulls me out quite quickly. "

" It woke me up! "

" This was a very difficult read for me; maybe because I had to look into the depths of an addiction that I did not realize I even had. "

" If I'm good enough for the Lord, I'm good enough for anyone else. "

" I don't need other people's approval to enjoy life! Yay! :0) I'm on page 34. Good book for you, or to give you understanding for what others are feeling and why they behave the way they do.... "

" How to be a fundamentalist Christian.:) "

" You must read all her books are off the hook! "

" I did not realize how we are seeking for someone's approval. Joyce Meyers lays out it for real! I am a writer, always seeking for feedback, and if you think about it...I am seeking other people's approval! "

" Excellent book that describes me to a tee; especially this year. Christian based. "
