Description

How can you live your best life, be your best self, achieve your personal goals, and make a lasting difference? There’s lots of advice out there, but does any of it work? 

In her thirties, Tieler Giles moved to New York to build the life she dreamed of and become the person she wanted to be: one self-help strategy at a time. Several years later, exhausted, she discovered the gospel of grace in a powerful, new way. 

In this book, she examines some of the ways in which our culture tells us to pursue happiness, power, identity, and love, and shows us how only God’s grace provides what we truly need to learn, grow, and live life well. 

Whether you’re a Christian or exploring spirituality, get ready to discover how God has the power to renew our minds, heal our hearts and restore our souls.

Truth and grace mark the ministry of our Lord, and they also mark Tieler’s perceptive book on ditching the endlessly exhausting pursuit of self-help. Full of insight into the human heart, How to Ditch the How-to will expose your need—and Christ’s perfect, abundant grace.

Jen Oshman

Author, Enough About Me

Take it from someone who’s been there: Tieler Giles really has put all the latest self-help trends to the test (manifesting, meditating, setting intentions, positive self-talk—you name it, she’s done it!). In How to Ditch the How-to, Tieler takes us with her on her years of trying to find happiness and fulfillment within herself. She shares candidly the effort and exhaustion, the high hopes and deep disillusionment. And then she shares with us the relief, peace, and soul-deep joy she finally found in Jesus. No doubt every reader will see some of herself in Tieler’s story. Who among us hasn’t succumbed to self-help? But Tieler tells us the better and truer story of who we are, in light of who our Creator is and how he made us to find abundant life in him. Tieler’s story is authentic, transparent, and ultimately full of the best news there is. If you’re tired of trying to keep up, then take up this book and find real rest.

Courtney Reissig

Author of Teach Me to Feel and Glory in the Ordinary

All of us want to improve and grow, and the world offers no shortage of answers and products to try. Tieler Giles embarked on a journey to try ‘self-help’ and came up wanting. But in the process, she learned about herself, and more importantly about her relationship with her Savior. This book is the fruit of that journey, and it’s one that will serve anyone who has believed that self-help books and tactics are the answer to their needs. Giles has been in your shoes, and she is a friend who invites you back to God’s purposes for you.

“Pointing us back to Jesus”

“ Living and looking like Jesus is not the product of a carefully crafted to-do list, excellent time management skills or having the commitment levels of a marathoner in training. We grow, change, and become who God has called us to be by His power,not our own.”

Tieler walks through many popular self help how to’s. Many that she her self tried and always came to the conclusion that it was never enough.

I greatly appreciate her honesty and transparency through each experience. Even more so how she was able to flip it around and point us back to the one that can bring fulfillment, Jesus ⭐️

This was a very easy book to read and follow. A great book especially for new believers.

I want to thank the good book company for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
