The Power of Not Yet: Living a Life of Endless Possibilities Kindle Edition

by Donna Pisani (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars 202 ratings
Have you ever felt stuck in life?

Or perhaps your life doesn’t look the way you thought it would right now; maybe that dream is just beyond your reach as the words Not Yet appear stuck on repeat. Are your fears, failures, and imperfections trying to define your future the longer you are “on hold”?

In The Power of Not Yet, Donna Pisani focuses on four powerful principles that not only changed her life but have done the same for countless others as well. With each principle she dismantles the lies of fear, failure, and imperfection that keep your purpose and potential hidden while addressing how to live with confident boldness in the middle of your Not Yet Zone. Through personal stories, biblical insights, and research, Donna delivers the simple truth that you were created for greatness and that every part of your life—past or present—is an incubator to discovering how to live the life of endless possibility God has designed for you.

You will discover:
• How to flip the light switch, expose the fears, and identify common lies you’ve been soothing for far too long.
• The small steps that will significantly impact you in becoming smarter and stronger while you wait in the process.
• How God has already written you win all over your story, and how to see it and say it while understanding God’s purpose is always bigger than what you can think or even imagine.
• How to lead yourself well and discover the purpose God has placed in you, removing the confusion of knowing how to start.

If you long to get moving, discover what God made possible in you, and be the world changer God's called you to be, this book is for you.

What people are saying about "The Power of Not Yet - Living a Life of Endless Possibilities"

A real page-turner! A book for everyone in every season. Delightful, motivational, and authentic. Donna puts into words so well what every person needs to believe in: "you are entrusted with choice and a life of endless possibilities." This will be a yearly read for me. Alejandro Garcia

We've all experienced it before. Waiting in the Not Yet zone of life between our current situations and our longings or callings. This book really helps put into great perspective what we can be doing to build ourselves while we're waiting and enjoy the whole journey instead of just the destination. Hunter Wilder

"I am a beyond busy mom with 6 kids and find myself in the middle of a NOT YET. This book is so timely. I don't read much these days but read this book in two days! Great read and very inspirational" Wendy Whitlow

WOW! I think we can all relate to the message Donna has so clearly communicated here in "The Power of Not Yet"! She gives some incredible insight from her wealth of experience to help you and me to get the most out of the "not yet zone", that place "in the middle" where we all find ourselves so frequently in life. You will learn to change your perspective and put your "not yet zone" to work as an investment in your future in a way that your "future you" will be so grateful! FIVE STARS! Ben Shelton

What a powerful message coming at a critical time for all of us! Self-doubt, regret, wondering our purpose, Ms. Pisani covers it all. Her personal stories lend vivid lessons to the book. I will enjoy reading again. The message felt very real for me. Thank you for your passion to share so much of yourself Ms. Pisani. Its life changing! Susana

“I’m not a book lover but I read part one of “The Power of Not Yet" and it rocks, can’t wait to keep reading it! Chaiym Burney

    This book really is about understanding and embracing your true identity in Christ knowing that God not only can, but desires to use you in the "not yet" phases of your life because they are an integral part of your story for His glory.

    The author shares snippets of her own life, outlines practical steps on how you can live victoriously in the "not yet", and suggests prayers that can be prayed to help you truly receive the abundant life that Christ has made available for all.

    This book is a wonderful reminder that we all have a destiny - a purpose for being here and that no part of our lives is ever wasted or insignificant when we choose to surrender our fears, our hopes, dreams and even the seemingly "mundane" aspects of our lives to the truth of God's word.

    Inspiration and motivation on steroids! I’ve read a lot of motivational self-help books over the years, and I have to say this is probably the most powerful one yet. There is a good reason this book has an average 5-star review rating.

    As usual, God led me to a book in just the right time. I was coming out of a rather long period of depression and discouragement, and beginning to pray what I was supposed to do with all these dreams and desires that have been locked up inside me for years. Dreams and desires that, I might add, I had all but given up on during my last bout with depression.

    Then along comes this book, which God is using to get me back on the right track. I recommend it to anyone who feels stuck in a rut, or discouraged because life seems to have become one big obstacle to fulfilling their dreams (hello, so, like, most of us?).

    Gentle correction to the author: snakes are reptiles, not amphibians. ;)

    Donna Pisani leads a women's leadership movement that is rooted in Christian principles - Beautiful You. She believes firmly in the power of God's grace and respects the gifts endowed to each of us. The message is a reflection of God's truth...You are the Daughter of the Most High God. You are the head and not the tail. You are victorious in Christ. The book addresses many obstacles that we face - fear, the condemnation of others, resulting brokenness - and declares what God says about you as trump over the deceptions that some may have you believe. God says, "Your name is written on the palms of My hands;" "I knew you before you were formed in your mothers womb;" "If God be for me, who can be against me." God redeems. Read the book to see what God says about his most prized possession - You. Donna has written this guidebook for what to do and profess as you are waiting on Him. God does not chose the qualified, He qualifies the chosen.

    5.0 out of 5 stars An amazing book for people not noticing the flicker of light in the darkness of their tunnel
    Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2016
    Verified Purchase
    An amazing book filled with examples from real life experiences and Biblical stories to provide lessons that describe a blueprint for living life to the fullest in every respect. As a middle school teacher I had professed the belief that students should be evaluated, not on the journey to their accomplishments, but on their eventual success. We don't judge an olympic runner by the falls she experiences when she was learning to walk. Why judge someone by how many times they fall (fail) on the road to learning - their success. I thought this book would re-enforce that philosophy. But it goes beyond that. I recommend this to anyone, at any stage of their lives, or profession who feels stuck in life searching in darkness for a light at the end of a tunnel.

    Wow. Small book, quick read...this book is jammed-packed with some of the most meaty, God-inspired wisdom I have ever read. I read a lot of self-help books because I’m working on a Master’s as a Professional Counselor, I volunteer as a leader for a Christian 12 Step program and I battle my own depression. I live in DC which is why I know of Ms. Pisani and my pastor recommended this book in one of his sermons. I am now buying multiple copies to give to people in recovery for any hurt, habit or hang-up. Bravo, Ms. Pisani and praise God!

    5.0 out of 5 stars the “not yet” mentality replaces failure with persistence
    Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2017
    Verified Purchase
    God must have prompted me to select this book off my Kindle, because it spoke to my need in the midst of feeling stuck. Parented by a perfectionist, I learned to see things in a pass or fail mindset. In order to gain approval, “pass” (or perfection) was the only option. Later in life, I’ve found that I give up easily because if it’s not perfect, it’s not worth doing. It also means I’ve learned to seek approval, validation, and acceptance through my work. Donna Pisani explained the “not yet” mentality that replaces failure with persistence—Not Yet. That is, I haven’t failed; I just haven’t succeeded yet. She also explains how to see the “not yet” as a thing of merit on its own by changing our perception and goals during a “not yet” period. Waiting is more productive and comfortable when we see it as a growth period, which has value in itself.

    If you’re feeling stuck or tired of asking God, “Are we there yet?” then you might benefit from reading, The Power of Not Yet.

    This book is an encouraging word to believers in a God who champions them and gives them all they need to accomplish His purposes. I have felt unduly promoted and unqualified. Now I understand that I am, and God is the One who is running the show.

    5.0 out of 5 stars "What we consider a limitation is really a set up for a take off"
    Reviewed in Australia on May 22, 2016
    Verified Purchase
    I'm not super religious so I actually struggled through some of it, however the author does a very good job of explaining biblical references at each turn in a way that is lighthearted, meaningful and relative to today's thinking.

    In the first few chapters the author offers some great advice on overcoming fears and seeing failures in a more positive light or as she puts it "It's time to stop performing autopsies on your failures".
    But I particularly liked the chapter on timing and that it's not always convenient to be brave. It really resonated with me that we know we have to step up, but sometimes struggle with doing so.

    The Power of Not Yet helped me realize that when we feel stuck or stymied by life and can't move forward it doesn't mean we're not meant to, it just means not yet.
    The author helps us utilize this time to grow so when it IS time we are ready.
