Me, Myself, and Lies: What to Say When You Talk to Yourself

Having just finished "Me, Myself & Lies" it's made me think about my "thought closet." In this book Jennifer challenges us to think about what is contained in this "thought closet." Some things on the shelves may need cleaning and she presents ways to evaluate what's there and what we might consider replacing or moving around. The ultimate goal is "to be well with my soul." If our closet is filled with God, we will feel better about ourselves and will feel His direction. She gives many personal examples to relate to and many scriptural directions to assist with change. Also she's included several famous friends' feelings about their "thought closets" which gives you more to contemplate. The book has been updated from a Bible Study and has that kind of feel to it. There is an edition for young women and presenting these ideas early would be very useful. I'd recommend this book to help you look at yourself and see if you can improve "your thought closet" and end up being at peace and happier.

Jennifer Rothschild's new book, 'Me, Myself & Lies' is a priceless treasure. Every woman (and man) should read this beautiful heartfelt book. We have all had negative thoughts about ourselves. We would never think of speaking these negative thoughts to someone else, so why are we saying them to ourselves? 'Me, Myself & Lies' walks us through weeding out our "thought closet". Step by step Jennifer encourages us to getting rid of those negative thoughts and replacing them with positive truth, God's truth. Her personal stories and great sense of humor made me feel as if I was sitting at her table having a coffee and chatting about life. Jennifer is truly a blessing and many will be encouraged, blessed and changed by this book! Jennifer also wrote a teen version of this book called 'Me, Myself & Lies for Young Women'. This would be a great gift for any young lady around the ages of 12 to 18.

If you have ever felt defeated, this is a book for you. Jennifer has put her finger on the problem of listening to that whispered voice inside our minds that tells us we are stupid, not enough, worthless, and I could go on. When we listen, repeat, and allow our spirits to agree with those words, we become defeated. This scripturally based book cleverly uses the concept of a closet for our thoughts. Every closet needs cleaning out occasionally and Jennifer shows us how to clean out our thought closets to allow some new thoughts to enterthe thoughts God has toward us. The subject matter is very biblical in its approach and is not a self-help book but a God help us book! You will be very glad you purchased Me, Myself, and Lies and will soon be recommending it to others.

I would recommend "Me, Myself & Lies" to EVERY woman, but especially to the woman who struggles with low self esteem due to the faulty things (lies!) she thinks about herself. Jennifer gives very practical examples of things we should say to ourselves. She doesn't just point out what is wrong with our thinking but gives correct thoughts to replace the incorrect thoughts (lies!). She also shares many personal stories, some of which are quite hilarious! When you read this book, you WILL laugh and learn, and Jennifer's prayer for you is that you change and grow.

Most of my life, I have been stuck in a cycle and didnt know how to change. The cycle of negative self-talk. For the most part, I didnt even know I was doing it. I was unaware of my thoughts and how they affected the rest of my life. That may seem ridiculous, but honestly, are you aware of your thoughts?

Me, Myself, & Lies by Jennifer Rothschild opened my eyes to see into my thought life. Not only did Jennifer enlighten me to how negative my thought patterns were, but she also gave very practical and Biblical advice of how to CHANGE these thought patterns. At the end of the chapters, she also introduced me to other people recognized and changed their thought patterns. Her honesty in sharing personal stories of trials and triumphs throughout her life coupled with her compassion made it seem like Jennifer was sitting across the table and talking to me personally. On every page in every chapter, she pointed me to Jesus and gave multiple Scriptures to help reinforce her points.

After reading this book, I can honestly say that I feel like a better person. I no longer let my thoughts control me in a negative way; I take each thought captive and turn it over to Jesus. I have a whole different mindset of how I think about my thoughts.

I highly recommend this book to EVERYONE. Even if you think you dont need it, you WILL benefit from it. You might as well purchase multiple copies because youre going to want to give it to your friends too!
