Sassy Brit (97 KP) rated Real Strength: Build Your Resilience and Bounce Back from Anything in Books
Jun 5, 2019
“Real Strength” is about bouncing back from anything and teaches you how to deal with change, problems and opportunities in a healthy way, whilst building resilience and physiological strength in order to thrive , despite adversity.
I am sure I cannot be the only one to say that life has certainly chucked more than a handful of obstacles my way. I’m pretty good at handling that and often get told how positive I am – sometimes to a fault (so I’m told – as if I’m ignorant! Hell no!) But from what I understand from this book, being positive is nothing to do with ignorance and has everything to do with seeing the world / issue for what it is, and dealing with it the best way possible. Obstacles are challenges to overcome. I don’t bury my head in the sand, I’ve just learnt how to be resilient and accept things I cannot change.
What I love about this book, is that it takes my way of thinking even further and offers some great techniques to help you bounce back from anything.
“Real Strength” is about taking control of your life, tackling uncertainty and learning to not only see things differently, but to manage your emotions, cope with change and being more aware of the here and now. To relieve ourselves from those stress-inducing worrying thoughts that can consume us.
Each chapter encourages you to take action via exercises and real life stories. It’s a comprehensive, encouraging book and another one of which I have spent time reading and highlighting the pages. Yes I do write and draw in these self-help books, I fully believe it’s the best way to learn! Very happy to add this to my Capstone Collection.

Ivana A. | Diary of Difference (1171 KP) rated Quidditch Through the Ages in Books
Jul 10, 2018
Note: I am not a muggle, I am, of course, a wizard, but I believe Hogwarts has made some admin mistakes and my letter is yet due to arrive!
But for you muggles out there, this book has been approved to be shared, and it talks about the most famous sport in the wizarding world - Quidditch. A sport in which Harry Potter was a star, just like his father and many famous people before him!
This book speaks about the rules of Quidditch, the history, the famous teams around the world, the most famous players, the most exciting matches, the most devastating injuries, and the most mysterious endings of the matches.
While I was listening to it (Yes, I have the audible version - actually the second audio book I have ever read/listened to), this book made me feel like I was a part of this world, the same feeling I always get when I read the Harry Potter series. J.K. Rowling is such an amazing writer, and times and times again, I wish this world was real, and I wish I was part of it.
With my audio version, I also got the bonus scenes of the 2014 World Cup being held, and it being reported by Ginny Potter and Rita Skeeter. It was the most amazing thing ever. It is also taken out from the Pottermore edition, so I think you might be able to find it online!
This book belongs to the never-forgettable shelf, alongside Harry Potter, and alongside all my other favourite books!
