Review: Inspirational, a bit exaggerated maybe?

This book was a great way of expressing a personal struggle of one man who felt like he was losing purpose, and the realization of this was de-motivational to him in the long run.  He dealt with social interaction, his perception of himself as well as the way others thought of him, where he was leading himself to, what he planned to do with his life, his many mistakes and falls, etc.  However the author doesn't dwell much on the bad being bad, instead focusing on explaining to us that bad can be turned to good.  He makes this very clear and repeatedly brings that up, that just because something bad happens or you've made a mistake, no matter how majour, it can always be turned around.  It's a very positive outlook on life in general as well as on yourself, and I greatly enjoyed that he understood this and made it clearer for me as well.  He provided many examples in his own life, where something negative had happened which he then took and either made it a positive or learned from it to overall prevent similar mistakes.  The outlook is amazing, very inspiring and motivational, and I can apply his "methods" to my own life.In some places of the book, it felt like maybe his experiences were exaggerated a bit, that made me either wowed that he managed to push through or question their details.  This might just be for effect in the book, or his trying to impress upon the reader the "bad-to-good" of his story.  If this is so, it was excellently written and gives me a new positive, encouraging look on my life and its purpose.  Great job!
