Overview

We are often our own worst critics-but what happens when society and its inhabitants are the bigger critics? We get told that we can't. When we hear that enough, we believe that we can't. Unlike most self-help works, Renzo Reyes' Do It Anyway: Realizing Your Worth in a World That Makes You Feel Inadequate doesn't ask us to ignore the critical voices around us, but rather to acknowledge them, accept them, and still push forward anyway. Do It Anyway is the self-help book for the people most often overlooked by self-help. Applying well-researched psychological principles interwoven with personal stories and first-hand interviews, Reyes helps us answer our most vexing questions: Why is it that no matter what I do, I don't ever feel like I'm enough? How do I muffle the voices of my worst critics? How can I take on bold challenges against my deepest fears? Read Do It Anyway to discover how to regain control over your mind, spirit, and future-in a world that desperately tries to keep it from you.

Author Information

Renzo Reyes is a Peruvian-American lifelong scholar. He is a first-generation graduate from Georgetown University serving as a strategy and management consultant at a top global consulting firm. Reyes resides in Rockville, Maryland with his two loves: his husband, Kevin, and their fur son, a Siberian Husky named Kalel. Growing up as a gay, Latino, undocumented immigrant, he carried the weight of inadequacy on his shoulders, never feeling like he truly belonged anywhere. After twenty-six years, he had had enough. In Do It Anyway, Reyes challenges himself and his readers to examine their own feelings of inadequacy, empowering them to find and apply their worth when society has taken it from them.
