The Butterfly Effect: How Your Life Matters by Andy Andrews

The Butterfly Effect: How Your Life MattersProduct Description

The decisions you make and the way you treat others have more impact than you may ever realize.
Speaker and New York Times best-selling author Andy Andrews shares a compelling and powerful story about a decision one man made over a hundred years ago, and the ripple effect it's had on us individually, and nationwide, today. It's a story that will inspire courage and wisdom in the decisions we make, as well as affect the way we treat others through our lifetime. Andrews speaks over 100 times a year, and The Butterfly Effect is his #1 most requested story.

My take on this book:
The Butterfly Effect by Andy Andrews is a pint sized gift book that packs a wallop of a message.
This book will take you no longer than 10 minutes to read, and is very eye appealing with its beautiful pictures and large font.
The resounding message is every single thing we do matters. That the cause and effect of the decisions we make do make a difference.
Mr. Andrews starts out by telling us the story of Joshua Chamberlain a Colonel in the Union Army, and how the decisions that Mr. Chamberlain made was like a ripple effect on the US, shaping the countries future.
This is a great little motivational  read that would be a great gift for anyone who might be suffering from self esteem issues or anyone who you think needs to be reminded that Yes They Do Matter.
I was provided a copy of this book by Thomas Nelson's booksneeze program in exchange for an honest review!
