The final book that I am going to talk about is “The Fire Starter Sessions”, by Danielle LaPorte

Kudos to Pip Miller for bringing LaPorte’s work to my attention! This book is billed as a soulful, practical guide to creating success on our own terms. LaPorte has a lot of great ideas – but, for me, at least, her presentation is a bit overwhelming. To say the least, she is energized and passionate about what she is doing! It is somewhat like trying to read Dennis Rodman’s autobiography, with all the changes in font types, sizes etc. Only with LaPorte it is one page of normal text, the next page one sentence, in bold print, taking up the entire page.

The good thing is … she has a great deal to say! She puts everything in perspective, and she gives the reader worksheets (that can be downloaded from her site free of charge) that allow the reader to do the work they need to do to put the book to use in their own life. Well worth the price of admission, even if, like me, you may not connect well with the presentation (not the content … the presentation). Here is one of many You Tube videos that will show you what “The Fire Starter Sessions” is all about -
