If you're not living your dreams, this book will help you discover WHY NOT, HOW to get moving without excuses and HOW to build for success.
How good is this book? Buy it, open it up at random and just see if it doesn't begin to give you that needed jolt of lightening to get you off your "but" (your excuses) that keep the doors and windows from opening!
This is one of the most powerful books I've ever experienced and I highly recommend it as a life-changing read!

Wonderfully witty and poignant for any stage of life. I needed this book and it appeared (literally, i just noticed it on my bookshelf one day - no idea where it came from!)...
You can read this book straight through or open randomly for an enlightening refresher.

I really enjoyed this book. It's a quick read even though it looks large. I read straight through it and now am planning to go back and do all of the activities. I also loved all of the great quotes.

I was fortunate to hear Peter McWilliams speak at an Insight Seminar around the time this book was published (1991). "Do It! Let's Get Off Our Buts" has the same same easy, upbeat style in writing that Peter McWilliams has as a speaker.
This is a gonzo book filled on every right-hand page with juicy quotations. You could easily buy the book at this low price for the quotations alone. It's a fat book that encompasses psychology, philosophy (McWilliams is a student of John-Rogers, founder of the Movement of Spiritual Inner Awareness and many other organizations devoted to peace and spirituality), and practical advice--with lots of humor in the mix.
I liked his coining of the word "selfing"--which means "doing for one's Self, in the larger sense of Self, as if True Self, or 'To thine own self be true.' It means fulfilling the dreams, goals and aspirations inherent within us. It means living our life 'on purpose.'" This term and its definition are, for me, at the heart of the book and what it uniquely has to offer in the bustling world of self-help books.
A friend asked me after my book was published, "How does it feel to be living your dream?" I replied that "Your dream is only as good as you are, so you better get ready." This book is an excellent guide to help you get there and get ready for what comes next.
