I LOVED this book. Going into 2016 I wanted to shake off all of the bad things that happened in 2015 and focus on being happy. I feel like Shannon really helped me figure out what I wanted and how to get the most of my life. As she mentions in the book she went through a really rough time in her life as well so I felt connected to her in that way. 2015 for me was really tough with my dad passing away in October I felt like I didn't know what to do with myself. I started really looking for something to focus my time on. Over winter break I literally went through everything I own that's at my parents house, got rid of a lot (lots of Goodwill trips), painted my entire room by myself, and then started to clean the rest of the house because my parents are low key hoarders. (Okay, maybe low key hoarders is a bad way to describe it because I would call it hoarding but then I feel like that makes it sound like my house should be on TLC but we aren't at the level of crazy yet).
While I know I was doing most of this stuff as a distraction, I feel like reading this book really helped me refocus what I want out of life. Going through my things just helped me eliminate what I didn't need any longer and what was just taking up unwanted space in my life.
If you're feeling like you want to make 2016 kick butt or are feeling lost then I HIGHLY recommend Kaiser's book.
I also recommend checking out MarissaLace and her Year of You "movement." :)
