The Woman's Field Guide to Exceptional Living: Practical Steps for Living a Big, Bold, Beautiful Life!

Reviewed by LuAnn Morgan for RebeccasReads (6/08)

Have you ever felt like you were missing something vital in your life? Maybe you haven’t lived up to your full potential or maybe you feel overwhelmed by day-to-day living?  Then, this is the book for you!

Corrie Woods offers a series of practical steps to living the life you’ve always wanted to live. Easy to follow suggestions lead the reader through a series of lessons and guidelines that promise to be life changing.  From celebrating life to self-courtship to personal retreats to learning from the past, Woods will lead you on a journey to help you be the woman you’ve always wanted to be.

Woods credits her grandfather with planting the seed that made her decide to live her life to the fullest. She wanted to be able to end her life (whenever that may be) with the words, “If I had my life to live over again I wouldn’t change a thing. No regrets!”
After reading “The Woman’s Field Guide,” I truly believe that can be accomplished by following Woods’ advice … but it won’t be easy. These are steps that will force you to look honestly at yourself and how you perceive your life. Then, you have to actually complete the assignments she gives you in order to make some key changes.
The lessons aren’t difficult, but they are designed to be thought provoking. The only way you will accomplish these tasks is to look inside your own soul and listen to your conscience.

I enjoyed reading this book. Woods has a wonderful style of writing that makes you feel as if she is talking one-on-one with the reader personally.  Because this book was read in order to do this review, I didn’t have the opportunity to give it the time it deserved or to try any of the assignments. I do, however, intend to pick it up again in the future and do just that.
