10 to Win by Dale Smith Thomas


At Officially HER, we love spotlighting women and voices that empower us to show up boldly, dream bigger, and live with purpose. Dale Smith Thomas’ book, 10 to Win: Ten Powerful Steps to Living Your Best Life Possible, is exactly that kind of resource—a roadmap for confidence, courage, and creating a life you love.

About the Book

10 to Win isn’t your typical self-help book filled with abstract concepts. Instead, Thomas—an international motivational speaker known as “The Hope Dealer”—delivers a practical, heartfelt, and inspiring guide filled with ten actionable steps anyone can take to transform their mindset and their outcomes. From the boardroom to the classroom, from personal goals to professional challenges, these principles are designed to meet you right where you are.

Each “win” is rooted in real-life stories and strategies that emphasize resilience, personal responsibility, and the power of a positive attitude. Thomas’ voice comes through authentically: warm, relatable, and filled with both encouragement and accountability.

Why We Love It

At Officially HER, we believe success begins with self-belief—and Thomas captures that beautifully. Here’s why this book belongs on your reading list:

  • Practical Guidance – The steps are clear, straightforward, and applicable to everyday life.
  • Motivational Energy – Thomas has a way of reminding readers that setbacks don’t define them; choices do.
  • Authenticity – Her personal journey and storytelling make the advice feel real and attainable.
  • Empowerment for Women – While her advice is universal, women navigating careers, families, and personal growth will especially connect with her empowering approach.

Key Takeaway

If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next step, 10 to Win offers both the mindset shift and the practical steps to move forward. It’s more than just a book—it’s a reminder that winning in life is not about perfection, but about persistence and the daily decisions that shape who we become.
