Real life : preparing for the 7 most challenging days of your life / Phil McGraw.
Dr. Phil McGraw helps you confront what he believes are the seven most common critical days that you or a loved one are likely to face: the day you are shattered by death, divorce, or losing something of great value; the day you realize you have lived your life as a sellout and that every choice you have made was dictated by other people's expectations, not your own goals and desires; the day that the pressures of balancing your responsibilities and needs, along with life's demands, become too overwhelming; the day that your body breaks down because of illness, trauma, or disease; the day that the mind breaks down and betrays you or someone you love; the day that addiction takes over, and you realize that you are not in control; the day that you lose the purpose, compass, and connection to meaning in life and have no answer to the question "Why?"--Publisher description.
