Riassunto

Hey you! What are you hiding? Why? Is it that embarrassing? How awkward and creepy is it, really? Are you a secret people watcher? Maybe you are graceful enough to fall up stairs and trip on your own feet. Do you scream in the middle of a quiet church service? That’s not awkward, or creepy. At least, it doesn’t have to be. We all have something we are hiding. I mean, everyone else thinks they are normal, right?You are different. And you were meant to be different. There are over 7 billion people in the world. What makes it beautiful is that there are no two people exactly alike. The things that make each person special and unique are the things that give purpose and drive towards the most fulfilling and satisfying life possible! Self-esteem comes from fully loving one’s self; the things that are considered strengths as well as what are considered flaws. This book shows you your own secret weapon. It’s that thing you keep hiding from everyone. Paula uses her Tourette Syndrome to illustrate how potentially embarrassing situations have become cherished memories and golden opportunities. The freedom that comes from embracing and using your differences is both liberating and validating. Let the discovery of your true self take you to new places.
