That a book I chose out of the millions of books was destined to be the one that would change my life. You might think it's an exaggeration of me saying that this book changed my life-well it's not.

I felt I had to seek help in my life because I could not believe in my skills.That feeling that I was incapable of doing certain tasks or if people didn't believe in me, it would make me shy away from "hard tasks" these were things I resented because of the feeling it gave me. I felt like a fish out of water.
