About this ebook
Candid, moving, exhilarating, uplifting, and frequently humorous, the words Oprah shares in What I Know For Sure shimmer with the sort of truth that readers will turn to again and again.
Oprah Winfrey is a creative force, student of the human heart and soul, and champion of living the life you want. Over the years, she has made history with a legendary talk show, launched her own television network, become the USA's only African-American billionaire, and been awarded both an honorary degree by Harvard University and the Presidential Medal of Freedom. From all her experiences, she has gleaned life lessons – which, for fourteen years, she's shared in O, The Oprah Magazine's widely popular 'What I Know For Sure' column, a monthly source of inspiration and revelation.
Now, for the first time, these thoughtful gems have been revised, updated, and collected in What I Know For Sure, packed with insight and revelation from Oprah Winfrey. Organized by theme – joy, resilience, connection, gratitude, possibility, awe, clarity, and power – these essays offer a rare, powerful and intimate glimpse into the heart and mind of one of the world's most extraordinary women, while providing readers a guide to becoming their best selves.

There are many life lessons to be learnt in this book. I started off reading with an aim of finding some truth(s) about myself and to get direction about the path i am meant to follow in this life. I must say, I'm left with a cup full and it is overflowing. Im thankful...It's a must read book for anyone and everyone who is on a journey to self discovery💗

Say what you like but when someone is that successful, you can't help but to dive into their kind and see how they think and perceive the world that led them to where they are. Here in my case I was so intrigued by how Oprah thinks and in this book, she shared with her readers what she knows for sure, each page can speak to you as though she's just right in front of you. This book is not hard to read, you can finish the whole book in one day BUT you'll catch yourself re-reading this masterpiece.

What I know for sure is that I will certainly have a different view on life
and it's experiences. This is such a thought provoking book. THIS deserves
to be a set book at schools, to cultivate a generation of young adults who
are empowered and uplifted.
