Great book for those who feel stuck in business or in life!
I had heard so much about this book and finally decided to pick it up. It was well worth the read! It definitely provides food for thought. The questions and stories really helped me re-think the times when I felt stuck and the reasoning behind that condition. I've recommended this book to coaching clients and job seekers alike. If you want to move forward, you've got to take The Big Leap.

Our problems are all basically psychological. That's why a book that helps you get to the root of our most deeply hidden internal issues is useful.

I suspect most ppl who read this will have an epiphany or 3 or 5, since we're not taught to monitor and communicate our feelings. This book shows us how those secret things hold us back in ways we can't understand. Once you understand what is happening, the power of them begins to break.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great meditation… short on action
Reviewed in the United States on November 7, 2023

The Big Leap is a great book with a mundane title. It’s in the vein of Think and Grow rich and other books which encourage you to align your inner self with a conscious invitation to more. This book reads like an essay of the authors personal reflections, but I have conviction that there is science and research to back up the Upper Limit theory simply because it matches attachment theory and other findings that we carry behaviors and childhood lessons into the future no matter how harmful they are.

The guidance for working through the Upper Limit problem is a series of meditations; which may prove helpful but that needs to be measured on a time scale different than the book. For the time period awareness is helpful—it would be helpful if this worked through some challenges when upper limit problems surface in interpersonal challenges; or further how to disarm an argument. But there are other books that treat that as the aim.

I've always loved learning. But I've more recently become interested in removing obstacles to growth. I'll turn 71 this year, yet I see so many areas of my life that are crying out for change or improvement. I'm not done with myself by any stretch of my imagination.

I recently read a book called The Big Leap by Gay Hendrickson. The book discusses deep, hidden beliefs acquired chiefly in our early life that guide and sometimes limit our ability to grow and achieve more. I had not thought much about the problem of identifying such obstacles, examining them, and then removing them to enable incredible growth. The book was a big revelation for me.

This brings me to a question that may sound silly: Have you ever gone looking for something you didn't know existed? Who does that? Almost no one. But that's exactly what I did with The Big Leap. I went looking for something I didn't know existed. A book or a training program can do that, but you have to be prepared to turn over some rocks and expect to walk down some paths that lead nowhere until you discover something wonderful that you didn't know existed. You have to go looking for something wonderful that you don't even know exists.

That something wonderful can be an idea, a wonderful tool for your kitchen, a terribly wrong assumption about how the world works, a bit of history that illuminates your modern world, or a simple truth about yourself that was hidden for years.

I meet people all the time who appear to have so much to offer the world, yet their self-limiting beliefs keep them from achieving more--for their own benefit and the world’s benefit. I also see people who are no brighter than you or me who are soaring to great heights of achievement, starting new companies, writing numerous books, giving seminars, being interviewed on TV, growing in knowledge and happiness, and having a wonderful influential life. How did they do that? As I just said, they're not brighter than you or me. What's their secret?

I believe their secret lies in their having successfully made The Big Leap.

This is THE book to read if you find yourself wondering why you seem to be stuck at your current level of success, no matter what you do. I just re-read the book, 5+ years after I first found it. It was amazing this time too. I have recommended it to so many friends and clients. Its contents have been truly life-changing for me.

I’ll be honest felt like I was reading a self help book. I tried to push through the first 2 chapters but it was just boring to me. Easy to read large print but just was not what I was expecting.

Simple, concise, and entertaining. This book is very impactful psychologically and it is appropriate in length. The author distills very complex and insightful ideas into straightforward and easy to assimilate information, which is masterfully done. My only gripe is that there a couple of questionable claims by the author, but if you can overlook those, this book is a gem.
