Media Reviews
In this argumentative, sometimes counterintuitive self--help book, first--time author Coxe declares that positive thinking is a lie and it doesna t work! It doesna t create lasting results; it is very difficult if youa re emotionally spent; and when it fails, you just feel worse. Instead of avoiding negative thoughts and emotions, he says, you should acknowledge and manipulate them to attain success. The key to using negative feelings constructively is learning to play games with our minds instead of our minds playing games with us. Coxe, who rails against other pop--psychologists and attributes his own expertise to life experience, offers a few basic tools, such as scenario planning, emotion control techniques and the booka s centerpiece, The 4--Step Process, a series of reframing exercises that identify readersa empowering beliefs and thoughts and their limiting ones. (Explaining why his 4--Step Process includes a step on positive thinking, Coxe does some reframing of his own, arguing that ita s not so much positive thinking itself thata s the hoax, ita s the way it is presented. ) Coxe declares that his process can cure people of longtime phobias in less than an hour. Readers intrigued by his multiple appearances on televisiona s Maury Povich Show may want to pick up this book. (Dec.) (Publishers Weekly, October 10, 2005)
