“I was experiencing (once again) some of the toughest few months of my life. But so was everyone else. My "go to" people for encouragement were "gone", off on their own crisis adventures. Suddenly, I was getting well intentioned but ultimately bad advice from strangers. I shut down a little I admit. Didn't want to try anymore. Didn't want to hear "When one door closes..." or "It's always darkest before the dawn." I saw a friend's post about Philosopher's Notes and clicked the link. They have been just enough sweetness to quell my growing bitterness. No cliches but somehow I already knew the lessons which gave me the confidence to listen to and trust myself. I became my own "go to" person in the process. Thank you for reminding me that I am my greatest resource.” 

“What a fabulous concept! As a lifelong fan of personal development (you should see my bookshelf!) and someone who has written articles on the subject for many, many years, I find tremendous value in the service Brian Johnson provides in PhilosopersNotes. Constantly researching these materials, I often find myself unable to keep up, with piles of partially-read books. Brian culls the information for us, not only offering up key insights but also pointing out areas where we may want to delve further. Brilliant! Plus, he has an easy, friendly voice that was just made for mp3 … He can read to me any day!”  ~ Colleen McGunnigle, DesignByMuse.com
