Yoo-hoo, I'm up here, now a BALCONY PERSON !!!
After reading this book, I have loaned it out to many people. Many seem to be touched by this book. It made me aware of how I can affect others with my attitude and my encouragement. It is a short, simple book that has impacted my life. I believe that reading this book is the start of changing one's life. But, one also has to make that "choice" to be a balcony person vs. a basement person.

Great gift to pass on to your balcony people!
This is an easy-to-read book that even people who hate to read can enjoy. Reading this book helped me to realize that some people are not really "telling you the truth" they are telling you "their" truth and that they often think that they are protecting you from harm's way by being negative about your ideas, projects, plans, etc. I learned to identify the uplifting, supportive people in my life who I can count on to cheer for me from the balcony, and to identify others who discourage my efforts as basement people trying to pull me down to their level. This book helped me to take action for myself more easily and to stop listening to the nay-sayers. I gave this book out to my balcony people friends. It's a great gift.

Balcony People
I found the book to be suprisingly helpful and interesting. I would recommend it to anyone. It hope to view relationships in a different light and ask myself if I am a evaluator or an affirmer. The book is an easy read but the author does a good job of making some effective points.
