From Drift to Shift by Jody B. Miller is a non-fiction book that helps inspire individuals both young and old to make a positive change in their daily lives. This book shares many stories of individuals who drifted along in life until they decided either to change or an uncontrollable circumstance encouraged them to shift forward. Shifting can sometimes be a scary experience but this book gives you encouraging advice to embrace change and to accept the consequences of following your dreams.
This book kind of surprised me, I wasn’t too sure if I was actually going to like it because of my own personal skepticism, but I’m glad that I read it. In this book, I really liked the variety of stories from different individuals and their backgrounds, but what struck me the most was the author’s own personal story that inspired them to make a shift in their own life. The lives that are written in this book is a continual proof that true success doesn’t come from money, material possessions, or power.
There is nothing in this book that I didn’t like or least enjoy, it was very informative, insightful, and encouraging. It really put you in the shoes of the individual and their experiences, whither they had cancer, or became paraplegic, or an amputee due to warfare. The stories and information that’s in this book truly make it an enjoyable read plus, there are no grammar errors.
I rate this book 3 out of 4 stars because of its valuable content and lack of grammar errors. This book didn’t score a 4 out of 4 stars from me because even though the information is valuable, there were times that the stories or the information dragged on. The rhythm or pace of the book became slow and a little choppy, but once you got over those few speed bumps it was an evenly paced story again.
This book, I believe, would appeal to anyone who is going through a difficult time and trying to find their way in life; their calling. And it could also appeal to those that are looking for a more positive mindset and a more positive way to approach circumstances or life. It is possible that this book would not be as appealing to those who already have a positive mindset or to those who are not interested in other people’s experiences/nonfiction stories.
