I was given the opportunity to review Caught in the Headlights by Barry K. Phillips', is a truly delightful read. Written in a lighthearted, self-deprecating manner, the author allows us to benefit from his wise advise, while enjoying the gentle fun with which he bombards himself. It's hard not to learn in such an enjoyable environment. With a foreword by radio and television personality, Glenn Beck, there was no way it was going to be poorly written. And it wasn't. This is definitely a book worth reading.
From the backliner:
Have you ever gotten what you wished for, only to discover that it's not really what you wanted after all? We've all had those deer in the headlights moments when we realize we've been chasing after the wrong things. Caught in the Headlights is a frank, insightful look at 10 key goals most of us think we want - only to discover our eyes are on the wrong prize. Barry Phillips not only entertains but also examines common values and enlightens us to the goals we should seek, and what to do differently now that we know better. From goals such as happiness, self-esteem, protecting our pride, or the perfect physique, Phillips takes a closer look at those aims prized by society and explores how we can pursue higher goals. A thoughtful, funny, and at times profound look into the real reasons we all have for the things we do, this book will entertain, enlighten, and inspire.
