The 5 Second Rule Summary

The 5 Second Rule: A Complete Summary - Transform your Life, Work, and Confidence with Everyday Courage


The 5 Second Rule is a book written by Mel Robbins. The book was written as result of one woman’s life transformation because of the techniques explained in it. The author of the book discovered this technique accidentally. Once, the author was watching a TV commercial. During that time, the author was at a low point in her life. She was fighting with strong depression and other problems, which prevented her from getting out of her bed. After watching the commercial, the author promised herself that she would get up from her bed even if she did not feel well.

The 5 Second technique consists of counting backwards from five to one and then moving out of thoughts and moods, which can only lead us down. This technique proved very useful. Thus, the author made a decision: she decided that she would write a book about The 5 Second technique. The author wanted to show to the world something that helped her when she was down in life, thus helping many others who struggle the same way. The original book contains explanations about the rule, the reasons why the rule functions, and its use in our lives.

For every definition and explanation, the author offers real-life examples and the stories from real life- both hers and from other people. Some of things this book teaches us are how to gain courage, how to break bad habits, nurturing relationships, beating fears, being more grateful and more.
