There's no way to choose three and a half stars unless you stab at the screen half way between the icons and see which one your subconsciousness guides you towards. So that's why four stars. Paul has a sense of humour that I really understand well. This kept the book entertaining and kept my interest.It's a strange review to have to write because I read the book as a result of attending a four week course in SUMO with my granddaughter at her Grammar School.

SUMO Wisdom: "Don't leave your dreams in the bin. Shut Up the voice that says 'no way', Move On to the voice that says 'Why not?" S.U.M.O. stands for Shut Up, Move On. It's a phrase to say to ourselves (and sometimes others) when we are acting or thinking in a way that is hindering our ability to succeed. It doesn't necessarily mean 'get over it' or 'pull yourself together' (although there may be occasions when both responses are necessary). 'Shut Up' means stop what you're doing, take time out to reflect, let go of baggage and beliefs that hinder your potential. 'Move On' means tomorrow can be different from today, look for new possibilities, don't just think about it, take action.

This principle the method of diagnosis Paul explains and the definitions for the 4 forms above, provided major breakthroughs for me personally and how my brain interacts with myself.
