Comments by Book Reviewers: Reduce Drama at Work and Home

“Joyce Weiss captures the immense pleasure and rewards of harnessing your earliest passion, transforming them into a way of life. She nurtures that same process in others. A must-read for anyone who has ever tried to take off on their two wheels.”

Lane Nameth

“The idea of looking back to your first bike lesson to find your essential strength in life is a tremendous concept. And it works! By helping me remember and bring my bike story to life in this book, Joyce helped me recognize new sources of energy and vitality in myself. And to keep this process going. This is essential to me as an artist.”
Monte Nagler
Fine Arts Photographer
 
“For us, goals have been so important, both on and off the ice. Here, in one book, is one remarkable story after another. Plus all you need to turn inspiration into acceleration. Joyce Weiss is a dynamo. Her riveting book is destined to be a winner. And…HOWE!”
Gordie and Colleen Howe

“This book gives you the confidence, and creativity to make it happen. An absolute gem. It belongs in the briefcase, backpack…or bike rack, of anyone with a dream!”
Joe Girard
Author of How to Sell Anything to Anybody
 
“Joyce has an amazing ability to help people see how simple it can be to “shift gears.” And to make those small changes. The result is that it can lead to such dramatic and overwhelmingly positive improvements, both at work and in their personal lives.”
Bob Danzig
Former Nationwide CEO of Hearst Newspapers
 
“This book is clear, organized, and logically sequential. The examples are helpful in applying the concepts to life’s situations. It is well-written and applicable to readers of all ages and walks of life.”
Virginia Hosback

“I’ve never seen so many good and useful ideas between the two covers of a book. Bravo, Joyce. You’ve done it again. This latest book is pure genius!”
Mark “Doc” Andrews
Sports Director CBS-FM Radio, Detroit
 
“Terrific stuff – Joyce! You are an endless source of practical ideas and great inspiration for getting everyone involved in turning around potentially negative situations. The bicycle analogy is something we can all relate to and is a truly inspirational message.”
 
Bill Zehnder
President, Bavarian Inn Restaurant
Frankenmuth, Mi
 
“An entertaining, fun-filled book with inspirational, common-sense ideas guaranteed to motivate its reader. Joyce Weiss knows her stuff.”
Robert Shook
New York Times best-selling author
 

“Take the Ride of Your Life! Is a book capable of changing one’s life. And gives one the tools and courage to do just that. Author Weiss’ analogy of learning to ride a bicycle; the anticipation, the excitement, the heart-pounding fear, are used to help one to recognize that no improvements in life are made without a minimal amount of risk or uncertainty.

Shifting gears shouldn’t be so filled with fear, and with MS. Weiss’ help, doing so seems less dangerous. Instead, she offers the lure of the thrill of adventure as an incentive to risk change and strive for self-improvement.

The author explains, in her smooth and friendly writing style, that obstacles can be navigated and overcome. And, that feeling of fear and uncertainty can transform into feelings of freedom and adventure. Additionally, perhaps best of all, that we should never stop learning or exploring not only our own selves but those around us.

Author Joyce Weiss employs a realistic, though at the same time extremely encouraging manner to encourage attempts to attain our goals. Her lessons instill confidence; self-reliance and acceptance are heartfelt and compassionate. Most of all, one gets the sense that she truly cares. Her enthusiasm for her subject shines through in her casual though thought-provoking prose. Take the Ride of Your Life! offers motivation for everyone and it’s delivered with an uncanny combination of insight, warmth, and humor.”
