Sometimes when life doesn’t turn out the way we thought it would, our tendency is to try to fight the feelings of loss, anger, and being out of control. Dreams are dashed, people get sick, promises are broken, deaths occur, life gets messy, and we clench our fists tightly around whatever we can, trying to hold onto our perception of normal. When we learn to loosen our grip, unclench our fists, and grasp God’s hand, a place of rest and healing can begin. His faithfulness becomes our new focus, and our tight knuckles open up and rest in God’s palm of peace. Letting go is possible, because the discovery of God’s faithfulness runs like a smooth salve over the bruised and broken places in our lives. That discovery can be trusted and counted on, beyond our wounded hearts, frayed nerves, and unanswerable questions. The journey is worth the process, and restoration and hope can then replace pain and loss.

John Hoover, an organizational leadership consultant, discusses how to deal with an "Idiot Boss" - or I-Boss - who does stupid things. Hoover distinguishes idiots from other tricky bosses, including those who think they are God, or who are paranoid, sadistic or Machiavellian. He leaves the reader with a couple of issues. First, you'll think no good, caring bosses still exist. Second, he doesn't tell you clearly where to set boundaries or when enough is finally enough. He often advocates appeasing bad bosses, although his other counsel on how to deal with them has some effective pointers. To his credit, Hoover is very candid about how he has learned from experience, including his mistakes. He offers personal examples from his experiences at Disney and elsewhere, and tries to write in a light-hearted or whimsical vein. getAbstract.com finds the book strongest when it is strategic and weakest when it tries to be funny, given that with bad bosses you only laugh to keep from crying.

In Let Go of your But!, Kimberly Banks encourages readers to open their hearts and minds in order to overcome the obstacles that deter women from achieving their ultimate success. We all have had our aspirations negated by the "but" of mountains we create in our heads. "I would love to finish this book, but..." It isn't until we recognize that the desires of our heart is just the spirit's way of reminding us of the intentions we chose before making our physical entrance into this world. Banks teaches women how to take the first step out of fear and pain and into the love and light that empowers them to continue toward the manifestation of the self they've always imagined. Touching on topics dealing with fear, procrastination, matters of the heart (pain and disappointment), gratitude and realizing the authentic self, the author provokes the minds of women who have reached the understanding that "something's gotta give."
