“I have never met anyone as passionate and positive as Lisa Sasso. Reading her book is like having Lisa right beside you, encouraging and empowering you to strive for the life you want, the life you deserve. Lisa’s enthusiasm on each page is contagious. I especially like how Lisa’s book is broken down into chapters for each month of the year, each with a renewing focus. We all have great intentions and lofty goals in January, but what about the other eleven months? Each chapter is like a New Year re-boot. I also like the book’s focus on family and work/life balance. Lisa’s writings remind us of one of the many benefits of success: the freedom to spend time with loved ones. Lisa discusses the need to recharge our batteries and to cherish every moment. This book is a great tool to keep close at hand all year long. During any time of the year, if you need to refocus, open this book and get the encouraging and wise coaching you need.”

“I thoroughly enjoyed reading Motivation Now! by Lisa Sasso. It was easy to read, well organized, and quite thought provoking, too. We all have busy lives, especially at certain time of the year (seasonal holidays and other annual celebrations). These special moments throughout the year should give us time to ponder and reflect, and to consider how blessed and grateful we are. Sometimes it’s hard to stay positive when things aren’t exactly going as we imagined. Lisa suggests taking your hopes and dreams and turning them into personal or professional goals, taking one day at a time, and being grateful for what we have achieved. We should celebrate all the small victories in our lives!”

“I thoroughly enjoyed reading Motivation Now! I appreciated the monthly format and loved March-Luck Now! I also loved the monthly quotes, my favorite being “Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you’ll be a success” (Albert Schweitzer). After reading Motivation Now! I was reminded of the many blessings in the people surrounding me and opportunities I have had in my life. Lisa’s reminders of having goals and remaining focused enhance these blessing and prepare you for even greater achievements. As a fitness professional, I strive to help my clients see their potential, and I am confident Motivation Now! will be another tool to add to my repertoire. I love being able to write thoughts and reflections at the end of each chapter…. I plan to return to those and review the changes I have made (as well as changes I still need to make) as I read the book again and again. I plan to share Lisa’s inspirational messages and introspective exercises with my friends, family and clients by gifting them a copy of Motivation Now!”
