Get Perfect Confidence in Everything You Do! - By: Mrs. CA Walker, 15 Nov 2007 
Another outstanding book from Kelly Marks. Every horse handler needs Perfect Manners & Perfect Partners is the next step in building that special relationship with your horse. Now Perfect Confidence completes the Perfect trilogy.
This time Kelly excels herself by showing us how to improve our self esteem & capability, whilst enabling us to set & achieve realistic goals. And if that isn't enough, the book does it in a fun, interactive & easily readable way.
As you would expect there are lots of superb photographs of Kelly's former problem pony, American Pie & some rather unexpected, particulary touching contributions from Kelly's mentor, Monty Roberts, as well as from Kelly's major influence, her father, race horse trainer Douglas Marks, who sadly died before the book went to print.
When you've read it, you can look forward to seeing a different world as things change around you, especiallly if that world involves a horse.
Not confined to horses - By: Mrs. Laura Ma Middlemiss, 15 Nov 2007 
.... or to actual problems with confidence, this book is excellent for self awareness & facilitating realistic goal setting in alll walks of life. Kelly comes across as a "real" person who is humanitarian as well as having a passion for equines. A common sense approach that less than perfect can still be OK.

THE BEST SELF HELP BOOK - SO FAR - By: Ms. S. Silver, 21 Oct 2007 
AFTER HAVING A FALL SOME YEARS AGO, THEN AFTER RETURNING TO RIDING I FOUND MYSELF BEING A VERY NERVOUS RIDER, I WAS READING THIS BOOK AND WAS THINKING I CAN'T DO THAT, BUT I FOUND THAT I COULD, THAT EVERY TIME I HAVE A NEGATIVE THOUGHT ( SUCH AS I AM GOING TO FALL OFF, I AM GOING TO GET HURT ), I CAN REPLACE IT WITH A POSTIVE ONE, I HAVE HAD ONE RIDING LESSON SINCE READING THIS BOOK AND AFTERWARDS TWO PEOPLE TOLD ME I RODE REALLY WELL, ( NOBODY NORMALLY SAYS ANYTHING TO ME AFTER A LESSON ), THIS IS MY THIRD CONFINDENCE SELF HELP BOOK ( ALL BY DIFFERENT AUTHORS ) AND IS SIMPLY THE BEST, IT DOES NOT TAKE AWAY YOUR NERVES, BUT NOW I FEEL THAT I CONTROL THEM, NOT THAT THEY CONTROL ME.
Confidence - By: Jeni, 17 Oct 2007 
Having a young horse, & getting older it is difficult to be as confident as I once was!! Couple of fallls later confidence was at an alll time low. Had bought a different book of Kelly's & it was only ok. But this is very good, helpful without being insulting, & good exercises, actuallly jumped a very smalll course today on my mare & haven't jumped for months!
