helped me."

"It is an awesome opportunity to be able to share my testimonial about the
influence of Mr. Johnson on me after hearing him speak at a conference and
purchasing his book. He is a tremendous motivational speaker, and I attribute
my success at the networking conference for my new business to him as I
listened to him during the opening session. Listening to him talk about his
experiences professinonaly and personally was very encouraging, and he instantly
gave me a sense of confidence in myself with a changed attitude. Words cannot
express my gratitude toward him, and what has happen for the good of my
business after the conference.

And his book is outstanding as he focuses your attention on his real life
journal entries as he explains his rational behind actually writing the book in
the beginning of the book. He is a literally awesome in regard to his writing
style and ability to communicate to the reader. His book is timely at this
point in my life as I have been trying to "let go of stuff" that continues
emotional pain and difficulty in my relationships.

Thank You Mr. Johnson, and please continue to motivate others through your
speaking engagements and your book(s).

"I keep a copy of the "Self-Managing Grid" TM on the dashboard in my car. It
really helps when the daily commute can get a bit testy! :-) Not only that, the
Grid has reminded me that every situation doesn't have just one answer, or one
conclusion. I think that a lot of people become defeated when we focus on one
point only. If it seems that there is one aspect of a situation we have no
control over, the entire experience seems to be out of our control. The
Self-Managing Grid reminds you that you have options; that you choose what road
to take next!"

- E. Vernon, Nashville, TN

"I found Darren's book to be very insightful. It allowed me to take a deeper
look into myself and filter through the energies within. I sense a greater use
of the positive flow of energy that exists within myself to live a fruitful and
fulfilling life. Thanks Darren for this great work."

- Nicole Dunigan, Nashville, TN

"The seminar was awesome. I am so glad that I had a chance to hear Darren and
am looking forward to reading the book!"

- Suzie A. Staffmark, Brentwood, TN

"Letting Go of Stuff" was an incredible read and a true eye opener. It made
me realize that I was holding on to "stuff" that was no longer necessary to
hold on to in my life. This book made it very easy to realize what was
critical in life and what was not. I have already recommended this book to
others... Can't wait to read what's yet to come [from Darren L. Johnson]."

- D. Martin, Nashville, TN

"I would suspect that anybody already highly-enough motivated to purchase the book is likely to find it a worthwhile read. For it is written in an intelligent and engaging style."

- Kam Williams, Philadelphia, PA

"By the way, my wife loves your book. The remote control metaphor [from the Letting Go of Stuff seminar] is getting a workout around our house!"

- David S., Nashville, TN

"As you know, we have incorporated your [Letting Go of Stuff] audio tapes into our Peer-To-Peer weekly group classes. The classes consist of our participants coming together and learning how to let go of stuff. They listen to your program in different sessions and then we have group discussion. These tape listening sessions have allowed our participants to drop their guards and openly face their problems. �we will continue to use [Letting Go of Stuff] as part of our program.�
