I think this is a really good book to read in these times of uncertainty. It is divided into eight parts: Resilience, Connection, Gratitude, Possibility, Awe, Clarity and Power. In each part, Oprah gives insights on how to enjoy the present moment, overcome difficulties and live a better life. Many people may argue that from her position as a powerful woman it's quite easy to give advice, however, she didn't get there overnight and she certainly had to overcome many obstacles.
I found the book full of hope and simple but useful pieces of advice. My favourite quotes are:
When you choose to see the world as a classroom, you understand that all experiences are here to teach you something about yourself.
As women we've been programmed to sacrifice everything in the name of what is good and right for everyone else. Then if there's an inch left over, maybe we can have a piece of that. We need to reprogram ourselves.
She also mentions several times in her novel the importance of gratitude and the need to enjoy the simple pleasures of life.
I highly recommend this book to everyone who is in need of some encouraging words because Oprah's words will certainly make you feel at least a little bit better.
