Keep Telling Yourself is a down-to-earth and motivational book for anyone who wishes to escape negative thinking and create a more positive, resilient mind. Chad Sanschagrin weaves personal stories, practical exercises, and real success stories to demonstrate how affirmations and self-talk can change people’s lives. He suggests that while positive thinking has enormous potential, it must be combined with effort and an enabling environment to have a lasting impact. In highlighting limitations and offering practical guides, Sanschagrin presents a motivating and grounded message: anyone can redefine their setbacks, recreate their minds, and orchestrate their destinies. I purchased the Kindle version, but I highly suggest a hard copy of this book—it’s on my list of top books for 2025 so far and was an absolute success among many of the members of the book clubs I belong to.

This book spoke to me! At a time when I was looking for direction in my life, this book motivated me to move from thinking about what I needed to do to actually taking action. The personal stories are totally relatable. It made me reflect on what was blocking me from reaching my full potential. Every chapter had me questioning: what’s holding me back? What are my excuses for not taking action? From finding joy in the future to yelling out loud 'Banana' while driving, I realized happiness is in my control—I just needed to shift my mentality. Whether you're already in a good place or in need of a boost, Chad had the insight I needed to hear. It had me rethinking where I was and what initiative I could take. Best use of a yellow highlighter! My new go-to gift for friends and family. I can’t wait to get the workbook for Keep Telling Yourself!

Knowing Chad and being coached by him is one of the best things that has happened in my life—from improving my health to having a better relationship with my wife and kids. I can quickly identify Chad’s influence on my life before and after. What I was not ready for was to find all of his best advice and stories between the two covers of this book. Every page reminds me why I'm enough. Every page motivated me to continue looking for betterment and stay outside of my comfort zone. Every book recommendation was a gift to expand my toolbox. I will forever be grateful to God for putting Chad in my life; now I’m also grateful for this book that I can share with my loved ones and watch them flourish into the best versions of themselves.
