Best Self Be You Only Better Audible Audio Edition Mike Bayer Phil McGraw HarperAudio Books Reviews


  • I’m not a reader, but I couldn’t put this down and not in the cliche way. Each chapter left me wanting to know the next. I’ve since purchased several copies to give away to family and friends, and even strangers. Coach Mike’s approach to trials and tribulations and the idea of a best self, seems to be a solution for many situations we go through that otherwise lacked something that could be consistent and universal, but at the same time, individualized and specific to the person. I highly recommend this book. It’s also something that you refer back to and reread throughout your life and as there are changes or new challenges so you can keep it and it won’t sit on a shelf forever. It was new territory for me to truly dive into self-reflection, but definitely needed and probably necessary for you too.

    “There is a pervasive belief in society that people can’t change, not really. That is absolutely 100% untrue. If people couldn’t change, I’d still be penniless and addicted to drugs. If people couldn’t change, everyone would basically be doomed. I’ve seen people overcome all odds. People change. They did. You can.”

    If this doesn’t resonate with you, read it over and over again until it does. You won’t be disappointed.
  • With all due respect, this is a decent book but says nothing that hasn't been written about in thousands of other books. You have heard it all before and lets face it, the fact that Dr. Phil is promoting/endorsing it is the reason for the book's success. Spheres of your life, arenas of your life, whatever..same old headings. Again, information and tips are useful but no original thoughts, no "theoretical thinking." What I do not like is the implicit message that you are not good enough as you already are--that you can be better. In other words, I will say to the author--you can be better, you can get a real degree rather than bogus life coach certification which is no substitute for a legitimate graduate degree in psychology.
  • I purchased based upon the positive reviews, which I'm now seriously questioning. I did not find anything in this book that hasn't been said in other, much better written books. The book was average in writing style, long in stories (which I'm not interested in), and very generic in tips. The tips and homework were all common sense ideas that most already do and know about.

    I really wanted to like the book and I really was looking for some nuggets, but I found very few. It wasn't horrible (hence not giving it 1 star), but is very generic and average. If you are looking for something deep or something that will be useful to self change or self improvement then I believe you need to look elsewhere. I'm sure in person his coaching probably works, but his methods just simply don't translate into anything useful when reduced to writing without the in-person coaching.
  • "Best Self" is a must read for anyone looking for make any type of lasting change in his/her life. I found it to be extremely helpful. It felt like Coach Mike was taking me on a personal journey of self discovery; his personal and professional anecdotes were inspiring and helped me feel connected. With the guidance of "Best Self", I was able to gain personal insight and make the much needed adjustments in my life.
  • I received this book to review before it is released.

    I found this book to be very helpful. There are a lot of different action items that one can take. I chose to do some of them to get an idea of what the book is like, but want to keep the book so I can continue doing some of the other action items as I have time or as I need them.

    The few I did really changed my perspective. I like the idea of the Best Self and the Anti-Self. It's not that we are bad people, we just have a part of us that isn't quite so helpful.

    I also like the little snippets in Coach Mike's life and his client's lives. Real world examples always help me to understand things better.

    I would highly recommend this book for anyone. Even if you aren't into self-help books, toward the end there is a great chapter on setting goals. That is helpful alone.
  • I pre-ordered this book, received it Tuesday (thank you !) and finished it today. In his direct and clear style, Coach Mike provides a roadmap to understanding what makes us tick (both the good and the not-so-good), inspires us to live the “good” and teaches how and when push the “not-so-good” away, and allows us to coach ourselves to a better place. Having a really good life coach in my life on a continuing basis is something I may never be able to afford, but I really feel that Coach Mike is personally with me as I work through the exercises in his book. It makes me accountable and that’s something I really need.

    This book is not an ordinary “self book”, it is more of a self help bible to a happier life. I know these things take work, but I feel that I now have the tools to develop better relationships and more fulfillment in my life as long as I stay with the program. Thank you Coach Mike!
  • I have always been a fan of personal growth and this book really BRINGS IT! It does not just help you identify issues, but gives you tools to actually work through them so you can really address items and programs and change them. It allowed me to really take an honest look at myself, and net feel bad about it.... but feel hopeful and positive about making changes.
  • Too often I start a book and get sidetracked along the way not ever completing it. That was not the case with Coach Mike's book. I feel like I am going to be reading this a second time in the near future. He lays out a framework that is easy to understand while also being extremely thought-provoking. I am excited about my authentic future now!
