“Through examples that will have you nodding your head as you
recognize yourself, You’re Addicted to You shines a light on common
self-addictions and helps you identify your own. Blumenthal’s
realistic, systems approach for tackling personal and professional
change can help you get started on a new quest or sustain changes
already underway.”
—Tammy J. Winnie, Director, Global Organization Effectiveness,

“My life’s work has been helping people overcome self-reinforcing
and self-defeating behaviors. Noah Blumenthal understands how to do
this and after reading this book you will too.”
—James O. Prochaska, PhD, author of Changing for Good
“In this engaging and informed guide to enhancing self-awareness
and personal growth, Noah Blumenthal helps us to find effective
pathways to change. You will recognize many people in his exam-
ples, most importantly, yourself. And you’ll start to apply what
you learn before day’s end. Blumenthal will get you going. Beyond
that, as he makes clear, anything is possible . . . it’s up to
you.”
—Joseph G. Cunningham, PhD, Professor of Psychology, Brandeis
University
“With all the attention our culture invests in advice for every
kind of personal change—from weight loss to leadership style—it’s
striking how little genuine wisdom we have for how to change once
we’ve identified what to change. In You’re Addicted to You, Noah
Blumenthal offers concrete, effective strategies for finding
traction to change where change has eluded you before.”
—Keith Allred, Faculty Member, Kennedy School of Government,
Harvard University and Founder, TheCommonInterest.org
“Noah Blumenthal has created a simple, yet powerful means for
effecting personal change. In an era where everything is supposed
to be quicker and more automated, it is refreshing to find an
approach that both honors the struggle we all face and acknowledges
the time needed to make real, lasting changes to our behavior.”
—Ethan Schutz, President, Business Consultants Network
“Noah Blumenthal has crafted a book for self-improvement that seems
to have been personally written for each of its readers. It is an
excellent guide toward the achievement of a happy life and the
rediscovery of the divinity that resides in all of us. I am excited
for the life-affirming opportunities that this approach can bring
to my work and to my home.”
—Rabbi Mark Covitz, Congregation Beth Yam, Hilton Head Island,
South Carolina
“Anyone who has tried to change knows how difficult it can be. Noah
Blumenthal provides not only a voice of encouragement and optimism,
but provides concrete tools we can use immediately to transform the
lead of present circumstances into future gold.”
—Karlin Sloan, CEO, Karlin Sloan & Company
“You’re Addicted to You addresses a problem familiar to the diverse
worlds of health psychology, organizational change, and individual
counseling: how does one facilitate real behavior change, change
which endures for more than a very brief time? Noah presents the
possibility of change using straightforward language, helpful
examples, assessment tools, and homework.”
—Kathleen M. Schiaffino, PhD, Associate Professor of Psychology,
Fordham University
