As a mental health professional, I am excited to be able to "prescribe" this book to clients who suffer with chronic self-doubt and self-criticism. This is not just another "self-help" book! In Confidence Beyond Measure, Dr. Bernard Sullivan shares his revolutionary insights into the underpinnings of self-confidence. He unveils an entirely new understanding of inborn confidence that most of us are unfortunately programmed to unconsciously suppress with self-doubt and self-criticism. Based on solid research, this book also provides a simple visualization program to help us stop suppressing our strongest belief in ourselves. Many thanks to Dr. Sullivan for this is a major contribution to the field of mental health, a revolutionary new look at neuroscience and evolutionary biology to recover inborn self-confidence!

A great book! Dr. Sullivan is an incredibly talented writer. His book reads easily as if he were speaking directly to you. I got a lot out of it and bought 10 copies to give to friends.

Dr. Sullivan’s visualizations have increased my confidence immensely. His theory runs contrary to traditional self-help approaches, which may be exactly why it’s the only one that has ever worked for me—and I’ve tried them all.

A fascinating new theory that shatters everything you know about self-confidence and introduces a new kind of inborn confidence. It offers a sound and practical visualization program that could dramatically increase your self-confidence and success. This revolutionary book discards the classic and anemic "I think I can" and instead helps you find and release your deepest most empowering belief, "I can and I will."
