“It’s true that we understand the value of something once we have lost it. But sometimes we don't know what we’ve been missing until we get it." As I read the book, I realized that there are so many tips and tricks that I could have applied to my life and career, but I didn’t just because I didn’t know about it. The book is filled with tools and strategies which I can apply easily. I found it very practical and result-oriented.

I like the organization of this book. It starts with challenges that we face in our daily life. Challenges that are influenced by our confidence in making decisions. Then, it continues by elaborating the main causes of low confidence.  Finally, it provides the solution. The solution part is engaging because it is explained in a step-by-step way. It is not a theory book; it is a how-to book. It provides actionable solutions. I find this book useful.

I recently read "The Little BIG Book of Confidence" by Chimmu, and I was truly impressed by the wealth of information and practical advice it offers. This book is a great resource for anyone looking to build their confidence and self-esteem, and it is packed with valuable insights and tips for overcoming self-doubt and fear. One of the things I appreciated most is the way it approaches the subject from a holistic perspective. It also offers a number of exercises and techniques for building and maintaining confidence, and provides examples to illustrate the points. Overall, I would highly recommend "The Little BIG Book of Confidence" to anyone looking to improve their self-confidence and achieve their goals. It is an engaging, informative and easy to read book with valuable insights and practical advice.

I liked the simplicity of the book. Simple and easy to read and presented in a very easy to follow format.  I particularly liked the self-reflection exercise to identify personal attributes. Sometimes it is the things we take for granted, but never really put it on paper and reflect on it, that makes a difference. I also liked her Confidence Pyramid which helps anyone with a challenge in confidence through this simple stages. Chimmu has made being confident something doable and not a scary uphill task. If you know someone who is struggling, please do gift them this book, it will be of a great help to them.

The book "The little BIG book of Confidence" by Chimmu Kutty was a wonderful read. It addresses a major problem which many face, due to lack of confidence and how to overcome this challenge. It shows her personal journey, the pain she went through herself and how she managed to overcome it. This is a much-needed book in today's fast moving world. Using a very conversational tone, it builds a great rapport with the reader. She uses several real-life case studies to illustrate her points. Chimmu explains her system of improving one's confidence level using simple to understand frameworks. The frameworks and examples would make anyone wanting to improve their confidence level, to embark on the journey, using the methods described in the book. I wish I had the book available to me earlier, when I wanted to overcome my challenges in the area of confidence. I would highly recommend this book.

I am impressed with the choice of title - eye catching while giving clarity on what to expect.  I feel, the book is indeed little in size and BIG in impact, which anyone using this book can definitely benefit from.   I liked the way, the book brings out the fundamentals, explaining the case studies, bringing out the practical tools people could use to build confidence and concluding with the resolutions for the identified case studies.  What I particularly liked were the case studies themselves, they were each, what I could to relate to, as a person and it gave clear tips to me, how I could deal with the situation and gain confidence.   Another important aspect of the whole book has been the language, simple, clear and relatable to any average English speaker.   I thoroughly enjoyed the book and look forward to more such lovely publications from you!  Wish you the very best, as you release this book and step into writing your next one!

No matter whether you have a corporate background or not, this simple, straightforward book offers you practical steps to boost your confidence. Lucid language and conversational tone make it an excellent read. Kudos to Chimmu for making it feel so effortless and attainable!

This book shows a clear understanding of confidence or the lack of it. It has beautifully brought out how to build a strong self by surmounting the low self-image and pressures of peers and environment. The step-by-step practical approach to overcome the challenges one might face was very clearly written. To me, I believe it is a one-stop shop for all newbies and for those who already have some work experience and are not able to make that difference in their jobs.

A relatable read with practical and impactful tips to work on self- confidence woven in simple and genuine frameworks with reference to personal stories and experiences.

What a masterpiece! Beautifully written in a simplified manner and believe me I felt that I was in the place of Radha juggling to cope with the triangle of trouble! Loved the way you gave your own example of being a bank employee team lead with team members totally opposite in nature. You have come a long way and proven the best each time with your thoughtful approach to connecting with the reader's mind. I must say it's a book that will easily get connected to the reader and he/she will correlate each scenario with their own life. Nice write-up and thought-provoking words to boost the sleeping soul to wake up, enabling it to regain the lost confidence to confront the triangle of trouble.    

The nice thing about the book is that it is practice-oriented and not like other typical theory-oriented self-help books. It makes the reader aware to acknowledge the fact about the friction most people will face with respect to change, when they get stuck in a comfort zone and provide practical tips to overcome that friction. My biggest takeaway from the book was that in order to gain confidence, the important thing is to first acknowledge your fear, do a worst-case scenario analysis and then work backwards from there to make things happen.
