Who are you? Three simple words--one very deep question. Knowing who you are and being able to express this true self to the world, is a very rare gift. The Power of Self is designed and written in such a way that will allow you to explore who you are, gain deep insight about yourself (possibly for the first time in your life), and, most importantly, provide you with the means and ability to express yourself in a truly self-aware and authentic manner. In short, this book will help provide you with the knowledge and understanding that will allow you to fully answer the question, "Who are you?" The Power of Self accomplishes this seemingly impossible task by first instructing you on what it takes to gather, organize, and reflect through a series of lessons, learnings, and insights. From this point, and through the completion of multiple exercises, assessments, and reflections that are based upon the book's three pillars of Self-Knowledge, Self-Concept, and Self-Understanding, you will be better equipped (and able) to identify, formulate, and demonstrate to the world who you truly are.

But here, for the first time, he tells his own story - and it is full of surprises. An idiosyncratic, splendid autobiography of a well known personality, and the discovery of a writing talent.The stories from his childhood in Somerset are vivid and moving: his grandfather with his tin leg, his mother at the mills, and his uncle, the ferret keeper and the black sheep of the family for 'carrying on' with married women.Keith Floyd spent a short spell on a local newspaper, and then, in a hilarious episode, joined the army. After he and the Ministry of Defense decided that they did not suit each other, he took his first cooking job as an assistant vegetable cook in a Bristol hotel. The great period of bistros and cafes had dawned and Keith Floyd was in the forefront, cooking in an open kitchen, with Pink Floyd blaring from the speakers.What is wonderful about this book is the vividness of the scenes he paints and the deftness with which he draws the characters - including his several wives. Those who have admired Keith Floyd's way with a whisk will now be impressed to discover and enjoy his remarkable skill with words.
