Summary of Jazz Thornton's Stop Surviving Start Fighting

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 The idea for Stop Surviving Start Fighting came from a conversation I had with my friend Esther, who was one of the key people in my life at the time. She saw me at my worst, many times, and always pushed me to fight.#2 I had spent years complaining about how hard I was fighting, but according to this definition, I wasn t really fighting at all. I decided to stop surviving and start fighting.#3 Our internal belief system is shaped by our experiences, culture, family, school, and friends. These factors help develop our beliefs, which are then used to determine how we see the world and the future.#4 I could see a sequence of events and experiences that had formed me into the person I was at that time. I had so many warped beliefs about myself that altered my behavior as a teenager and launched me into a world of hurt.
