The follow up to James Smith’s international number one bestseller, Not a Diet Book. • Do you love your job?
• Does your future excite you?
• Are your relationships working for you?

James Smith is back to challenge everything you thought you knew about the path to fulfilment and happiness. With hard-hitting home truths and a helping of tough love, be prepared to re-set your outlook, redefine your goals and truly consider:

What does SUCCESS truly mean to you?

Now, more than ever, is the time to take back control. Time to stop sleep-walking through your life; to challenge the status quo; and to truly ask yourself if you’re on the right path to success, happiness and fulfilment.

Only you can take the reins of your own life and choose to make a change, but with invaluable experience, a hunger for genuine happiness, and a drive to be the kind of coach he needed when his life was broken, James can give you the tools to do it.

Review

‘Meet the man changing the way you think about fitness. One of the most sought-after personal trainers in the world (who has) knocked current fitness It boy @JoeWicks for six and stolen the coveted crown of the fitness world’ Sunday Times Style

‘Not a Diet Book mercilessly takes down every fad diet, workout and health drink you have been sold and instead explains [James’] mission to make understanding weight-loss as two words – calorie deficit.’ The Sun

‘Personal trainer James Smith’s new book, Not a Diet Book, offers frank advice on getting in shape and busts some major diet myths.’ Grazia

‘James’ book is the tough love version of life coaching. He tells you straight, refers to his own experiences in life and makes you laugh along the way.’ Metro

About the Author

James Smith is the world's fastest-growing online PT. Honest, unapologetic and outspoken, yet erudite, authentic and endlessly passionate about exposing the toxic myths within diet culture, and committed to helping people to reach their goals and make positive change for good.

A great read. Shows a lot more maturity than James's online persona would suggest. James has an effortless writing style. Great and useful tips and insights.

My book of the year

Reviewed in Australia on 23 November 2020

Packed with advice, analogies and humour to make it relatable. Advice from a perspective that made it feel achievable. Really impressed with the move from his previous book, especially liked the ‘tasks’ at the end of each chapter. I think it’s too easy to fly through a self development book without actually stopping to do the work and these really helped me take SO much more away from the book!!!!

The Book for everyone!

Great book, def worth the read or listen in this case.

Makes you think about what’s important in life and why you’re doing what you’re doing.

Can’t think of anyone who wouldn’t benefit from reading/listening to this book.

Another phenomenal listen.

Reviewed in Australia on 24 November 2020

Another outstanding book from James! Throughout the text James offers valuable perspective, evidence and experience to encourage individuals to seek their true potential. Narrated with a tone you won't be able to stop listening to and full of moments that will stop you in your tracks this is another great listen, thanks James!

I really wanted to like this but.....

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 November 2020

I love James and I loved 'Not a Diet Book' but i"m afraid I"m completely the wrong demographic for this book being 50 years old. This is aimed at a much younger audience who are still figuring out who they are and what they want to do with their lives. If this had been written 25 years ago it would have been a great help but I'm not unhappy with my job etc and only wanted a few pointers on how to stop procrastinating and build healthier habits, I'll reread his first book instead.

NOT a life coach. Stick to fitness.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 December 2020

Verified Purchase

Not a diet book was good because it was based on his background and learning, life lessons of being a PT.
But this is a stretch out his 'lane' with an odd tone running throughout, stolen lines and ideas from a collection of books and a general 'don't worry' message.
It was just a bit basic without any real substance or ideas.
I've read quite a few psychology/mind books so of course in comparison this is poor HOWEVER I could see a part of the population who this type of talk would be 'game changing' for them.
But for me it was a repetition of old news and I couldn't wait to finish it to start a new book.

Should have done Not A Diet Book 2.0

Amazing, must buy!

The best book I've EVER bought! Both James' books are fantastic and so powerful.... I'd listened to the audiobook but I've also read the hardback. I leave this book out so I have a constant reminder of the messages I've taken from this book. James doesn't try to be anything or anyone else, he talks about what HE thinks and HIS experiences - I love and admire his confidence! The book is life changing and I think it's going to make a lot of people happy!! Well done James, amazing book!

Really wanted to love this...

I loved James’ first book and world recommend that 100% if you haven’t read it already. I had high expectations of this but it wasn’t really for me. It repeated much of what he talks about in his podcasts (also recommend these!) but if you follow James on his other platforms, I don’t think you’ll find much new here. I think this could be quite thought provoking if you’re younger or at a crossroads in life, but I am neither and pretty happy with life. I don’t think I’m really the target demographic as I’m in the minority - lots of others clearly love it!

Disappointed to say the least.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 January 2021

Had this for Christmas, after requesting it myself, and couldn't be more disappointed.
I followed James on social media, and he is entertaining (in a watching your drunk mate way) and encouraging in a 'positive vibes' kinda way, but I thought the book would have a little more substance than just his usual 'don't worry, be happy' advice. But sadly, that's pretty much it.
He says on his SM over and over again, that this book will "change your life" but all it changed for me was I was down 11 quid in my joint account.
Literally, there was nothing in it that hadn't already been said before. To reiterate other people's reviews; he's basically just taken various different 'advice' from other authors, mashed them up a bit and tried to make them his own. There's a word for that, and it begins with the letter P #awkward.
There's nothing original in this book, nothing he hasn't already said on his IG account.
It's such a shame, as I was really looking forward to reading it and hoping it would give me a bit more direction in life. But alas, it failed in a big, big way.
I think James has got a little bit too big for his boots with this one, as by saying he's not a life coach, it's basically insinuating that he seems to think he is. He should stick to fitness, and maybe lose the arrogance and realise the majority of his followers probably aren't in a position to just jump on a plane and leave everything behind.
I've stopped following him, because I'm now bored of watching a man behave like a child whilst slating the fitness industry, diet industry... basically anything that doesn't involve him.
He's done very well for himself, there's no denying that and he clearly knows his stuff when it comes to fitness, but that doesn't mean everybody else is wrong.
Learn to be humble, stop being so patronising, and lose the ego... because it appears to be out of control.
If anyone still wants to buy this book after reading these dire reviews, then hit me up as I have a pristine copy that will otherwise be in the firepit this weekend!
