The most detailed examinations of self-defeating behavior I have ever read. Contains some very useful methods of defeating self-defeatism. --Albert Ellis, PH.D., President, Institute of Rational-emotive therapy, and author of A New Guide To Rational Living Some of my patients would not need therapy if they would read this book. --Dr. Alan Loy McGinnis, author of The Power of Optimism We can choose to use self-defeating or life-enhancing behaviors. The first time a self-defeating behavior eased a difficult time was probably an accident. After that, we chose it. Now, we can un-choose it.... [Self-Defeating Behaviors] is logical and most helpful. -- The Phoenix
