Life is messy, but the mess doesn’t define you. Keep reading to find out how to turn your life around… Self-Help for At-Risk Teens is written from the perspective of someone who has been there. Through his words, the hard lessons he learned from watching his life spiral out of control, and with a no-nonsense approach, you will learn how to overcome the odds and live the life you were always meant to live. Follow my story as I navigate a life that began under unfortunate circumstances and continued down that rocky road until I didn’t know who I was or why I did what I did. A stint in a juvenile program didn’t help me change my ways. Instead, I found solace in all the wrong places while doing all the wrong things. My story is the story of so many young people in the world. Although the names and places may be different, the poor decision-making skills, negativity, self-hatred, loathing, and everything that followed are universal to those who don’t yet know how to channel their pain. Thankfully, after narrowly escaping the worst possible outcome, I found my way out of the hopelessness and despair. In this self-help guide, I share what helped me in the hopes it will help you as you heal and grow. Inside, you’ll discover: · What’s putting you at risk · How anger affects you · How to adapt to your living situation · The dangers of drugs and alcohol · Self-development strategies · And more! If you’re ready to see lasting changes and live the life of your dreams, this book is the perfect tool to help you get there. Scroll up and click “Buy Now” to read it today!

Book Description
'The bottom line: Your life's outcome is solely up to you. If you can get out of bed in the morning, go to the bathroom, get dressed and nuke something in the microwave without any help, then you are capable of doing, achieving and handling just about anything that life can throw at you. You can do this. You can live up to your potential. And at your age, frankly, I expect you to.' Straight-talking, unpatronising, inspirational advice from bestselling author Dave Pelzer. Before he became a teenager, Pelzer was subjected to horrific physical and mental abuse from his mother. During his teens the long road to recovery began and today Pelzer spends much of his working life talking to young adults in schools and foster care centres. Pelzer’s message is simple and powerful: identify problems, face them, think about where you want to be in life and never, ever give up on yourself. Being a teenager isn't easy in today's world, but as Pelzer says, it brings with it massive opportunities - and it's much more exciting than being an adult.

For teens, confidence is key! This fully revised and updated edition of The Self-Esteem Workbook for Teens has everything you need to boost self-confidence, improve your social skills, balance social media use, and reach your goals. As a teen, it is incredibly important to have self-confidence, especially when you consider all the societal pressures teens face today, particularly about appearance and grades. Growing up in today’s world is difficult, and in the midst of all this life-related stress, it’s easy to magnify your own weaknesses and minimize—or even ignore—your true assets. This workbook can help. In this fully revised and updated second edition of The Self-Esteem Workbook for Teens, you’ll learn to develop a healthy, realistic view of yourself that includes honest assessments of your weaknesses and strengths, and you will learn to respect yourself, faults and all. You’ll also learn the difference between self-esteem and being self-centered, self-absorbed, or selfish. Finally, this book will show you how to distinguish the outer appearance of confidence from the quiet, steady, inner acceptance and humility of true self-esteem. This second edition includes practical exercises to help you deal with body image issues, be more assertive and set boundaries with others, and navigate difficult social situations—including bullying, cyberbullying and social media overload. You’ll also find activities that promote healthy thinking habits and problem solving; tips for handling criticism, setbacks, and self-doubt; and strategies for developing self-awareness, self-acceptance, and self-worth. With the right amount of self-confidence, you will have the emotional resources you need to succeed and reach your goals. This workbook can help you get started, step by step.
