There Must be More Than This addresses the subtle sabotage that underlies the majority of people's behavior. It is timely, appropriate, and important for those who want to illuminate their choices, and change their behaviors in order to -fulfill their lives. |

It is very revealing just how much of what we do follows certain recurring patterns we are barely aware of, if at all. Judith Wright will share with you insights that will alter your self-perspective forever. And that's a good thing! |

I couldn't wait to read the book when it came out as I am a fan of Judith's having participated in the life training seminars and workshops she and her husband Bob Wright conduct at the Wright Institute in Chicago and their training center in Wisconsin. I am delighted to see that her heart felt and experiential material isn't diluted but even more powerful as it is articulated in a step by step process that I can access at anytime. I found her compassionate process motivating and her method of conveying her life work and helping others to get more out of life well articulated. I recommend this book highly to anyone sensing that there is something missing in life, that there must be more to it than this. Judith has a practical process that engages the spirit and puts the power of choice back in daily life. My husband and I have deeper points of contact as a result of this book, my time spent with others is more satisfying as I am thinking and engaging at new deeper levels. I get that I will and do go back to old methods of "comfort", zoning or checking out, but I like that now it is a choice. I now have more tools available to me and can choose to the level of meaning and interaction I have rather than walking around with a vaguely dissatisfied feeling about my day. I make it happen. |

If you read a lot of success books, you WILL enjoy this one; it really stood out. I read with a pen and hi-lighter to call out new areas of learning, so you can imagine how colorful this book looked when I got done. I had something on almost every page.
I never counted myself as having any addictions, because I don't have any serious ones. But what Judith teaches is how to carefully exam your 'soft addictions', because these on the ones that really reduce your joy, steal your time, and zap your energy.
In her book, Judith covers 8 key life skills that will bring you the right kind of More in your life:
1. Making your 'One Decision' to live a life of More.
2. Identifying your soft addictions
3. Minding your mind to break your denial and clean up your stinking thinking
4. Discovering the Why of your soft addictions and cracking your own code.
5. Differentiating your hungers from your wants.
6. Developing a Vision
7. Learning the 'Math of More' to implement your Vision
8. Developing support and accountability
I interviewed Judith Wright on "The Inside Success Show" and loved every minute. She revealed a whole new facet to personal success - getting rid of 'soft addictions.' She makes you say, I WANT MORE!" |

I bought a bunch of copies of this book and am giving them to my friends, family and business customers. I found Judith Wright's message about soft addictions to be simple and easy to understand, and at the same time very deep and meaningful. Unlike most other "self help" books, she actually tells you how to help yourself and change your life in ways anybody can do. She doesn't just talk about how to have a life with more love and meaning, she shows you how. You also get the sense that this is a woman who walks her talk. She gives personal examples about herself and many others who have made impressive changes in their lives. By giving this book to people and talking about its message, it helps me do exactly what Judith talks about. It gives me a way to get into deeper, more meaningful conversations and make an everyday meeting more satisfying and fulfilling. It also has a fabulous cover that grabs people's attention and makes them feel like you gave them something very special. |

Reading this book reminded me that I often ask whether the ways that I spend my time are helping me achieve my life purpose. This book re- connected with the truth - that I want more in life and that I want my life to matter. With compassion, humor and grace, Judith helped me unveil the soft addictions that I choose to take me away from my purpose. Her book helps me acknowledge the potency of awareness and choice. Will I stop eating sugar forever? Not the point. Rather the question I can ask is will I add more things that fulfill my soul and propel me towards living the life that I want? Regardless of which choice I make, by asking the question I am more likely to use awareness rather than mindless routine to guide my life. This book is a great read, a stirring topic and a great topic of conversation with friends and family. |

Motivational speaker and writer Judith Wright insists that the minor harmless habits are the dangerous ones that hold people prisoners within "soft addictions" that keep an individual from enjoying love and meaningfulness in life. These time filling disillusioned ruts like watching TV or surfing the Internet typically leave a person unfulfilled. Ms. Wright offers a program to eliminate or at least reduce the "soft addictions" in order to gain a more harmonic lifestyle shared with loved ones. The author espouses live everyday with the expressed purpose of achieving your goals and stepping closer to attaining one's vision rather than hide within the socially acceptable rut.
This self-help book is well written and easy to follow once the reader understands the underlying hypothesis fostered by Ms. Wright, who makes a strong anecdotal case defending her belief. The difficult part remains disciplining one's self because these "soft addictions" are so hypnotic even when one is left feeling empty afterward, but Ms. Wright offers small steps as a plan to achieve a more satiated life shared with loved ones. THERE MUST BE MORE THAN THIS: FINDING MORE LIFE, LOVE, AND MEANING BY OVERCOMING YOUR SOFT ADDICTIONS is solid advice for those who seek greater harmony within themselves. |

I read this book a few weeks ago and I am still working it every day. I started out very resistant to the thought of what I had to "give up", but it quickly shifted to what I wanted. I am getting about another hour of work done per day, another hour with my family and another hour of sleep on average. By being more honest about the things that I use to distract me I can now consciously choose: 'do I want to distract myself or be with my wife?' Sometimes I choose the crossword puzzle, however I now can start asking myself 'what am I avoiding' and that question makes it so much more availble. Sometimes the 'it' is a hug, sometimes I just need to talk, sometimes I want to babble. That part becomes easy once I can name it. In the end my wife are having more intimacy and play. In addition, my days are more exciting, I expect to have more satisfaction. I bounce out of bed usually before the alarm looking forward to my to-do list(never thought that was even possible). Lastly, I have a different sense of spirit. I do not know how to relate except to say that I notice more things are organicly beautiful. I don't know exactly where another 2-3 hours came from, but I seem to be quicker, more generative, on tasks faster and in general more present to myself during the day. Thank you Judith Wright! |
