Summary: Big Words Much??
Comment: The Idea behind this book, as I was lead to believe, was to instruct the reader to practice radical honesty. All it did for me, however, was reintroduce me to my dictionary. The author fills his writings with underlying put-downs and sarcasm, telling the reader that they are "pathetic" if they believe one thing and just plain stupid if they really believe the other. I didn't make it through chapter 3 and I loaned this book to a friend of mine who said she didn't get past the first. I waited for this book in the mail for three weeks (I'm in Germany), tore open the box when it arrived and put everything else aside to begin my "journey". I thought this book would be a great follow up the the Celestine series and "Heaven Within", but all it proved to me was that Mr. Blanton had a PhD and I didn't. How Pathetic of me.

Summary: Take A Dive
Comment: Have you read Brad Blanton's first book, Radical Honesty?
If you have not, get it today. We can cut through endless layers of complication and turgid self preoccupation with ourselves and our past simply by learning to feel what is, and to tell it like it is. Brad has made telling the truth into a spiritual discipline, a short cut to God. I have done little more than dicking around in the shallow end of the pool with what he offers, but it was enough to get wet, and its refreshing. It will probably take the rest of my life to get to the deep end. Radical Honesty, if we live it full on, is a way of life, a complete spiritual journey.
If you have read his first book, then you will love this very practical follow up. Here are nitty gritty devilish little tricks to crack through our shell of pretence, and then to squeeze our love through the crack. This book goes way beyond the first, and offers a vision of getting honest with yourself, with your life and purpose and mission.
Jump up on the board, and plunge in. It sure beats shivering on the side, waiting to live...

Summary: Honesty Begets Intimacy
Comment: What I have learned from reading Brad Blanton's Radical Honesty books is that we all lie - a lot - to create and maintain an image of who we want people to think we really are. The problems come when we discover that living within that false image - both personally and professionally - is very stressful and disconnecting. While telling the truth may cause some very big scenes in the beginning, it is a quick path to a powerful place of personal freedom.
I also read "Radical Honesty", which I think is the best place (other than a workshop) to learn about the basics of the high costs we pay of the "little white (and big black) lie." "Practicing Radical Honesty" coaches us through much the same information with practical suggestions on how to ease into a life of actively open transparency that is Radical Honesty. Both are inspiring books and will give readers a lot of compelling reasons to begin telling the truth with everyone with whom we would like to have a close and authentic relationship.
