From the Back Cover:

Revamp your life to grow, evolve, and become who you want to be

"In our culture, we are bombarded by messages that essentially say, 'Change! Improve! Get better!' ... . Given how overwhelming these messages are, it's tempting to simply shut them out. Who can possibly follow all that advice? But we still give it half an ear because we know, deep down, that we could change for the better, if only we knew how."
