  One of the most alarming features of our world today is the developing importance of therapists, counsellors, personal assistants and every manner of 'helper'. The underlying message is that we are unable to 'look after' ourselves, and therefore never leave the dependence of childhood behind us. 'Be Confident!' focuses on the innate capacity of people to be effective in their environment, to survive in the family and to become healthy individuals in society. It is about enabling each of us to discover and use our unused strength, to draw on that pool of wisdom inherited from our extended family, and to recognise that we all possess the ability to live our lives effectively. Dr O Donnchadha takes a hard look at unpopular issues such as anger, jealousy, greed and hate, and examines how these unconscious feelings can block us taking responsibility for ourselves. He uses a number of case studies to give us insight into how people can use their own inner resources to grow and change. 'Be Confident!' brings the reader on a journey of discovery of his or her own hidden resources and to see that it is within themselves that most help is to be found.
