Simply powerful!
|
In a straight-forward approach with his contagious enthusiasm and lots of real life examples, Anthony Robbins's "Notes from a Friend: A Quick and Simple Guide to Taking Control of Your Life" shows his readers that we can change our life literally in a matter of moments, by tapping into the power that's inside each of us right now.
What if "unleash the power within us" is what we need to be successful? It sounds too simple, but many of us including myself, have no idea how powerful we truly are. This book effectively showed us that we can shape our destiny by shifting focus on solutions, instead of problems. Having a clear vision of what we want, with a sense of flexibility in pursuing our goals, and continuing to take massive, positive, constructive actions, we can empower and enrich our lives and others' lives around us in all aspects!
A concept from this book particularly caught my eyes; "the past doesn't matter. Whatever hasn't worked in the past has nothing to do with what you'll do today. What you do right now is what will shape your destiny." It reminded me of my favorite authors; Ariel and Shya Kane and their books Being Here: Modern Day Tales of Enlightenment and Working on Yourself Doesn't Work: A Book About Instantaneous Transformation. The Kanes presented the idea of "Living in the moments", showing "the current moment is all we have and living in the moment is all it takes to have our life transformed." It is so freeing to be able to let go of all the "I should have done this" and know that what happened in the past is irrelevant to now and now is all we have! We have absolutely everything we need right now to create our lives.
These three authors are magical. I highly recommend them to anyone that wants to have a magical life and to discover his and her brilliance!

A n Absolute Mind Altering God Send!!!!!
|
If only I could convey the excitement I feel about this book to anyone reading this review. It is AN ABSOLUTE MUST....ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE GOING DOWNHILL!!!! I had this book on my bookshelf for a year with the intention of seeing what all the fuss is about with Anthony Robbins but it was never a suitable time.......
Well................recently having gone through major upheavals, desperately with my finances, work/career, raising baby twins with the recent abandonment of father, blah blah blah and so on......I finally picked this book up, only a few weeks ago, off my bookshelf and voilla, cram-packed with utter no-nonsense positivity, practical solutions, straight to the point experiences and motivational awe-inspiring factual stories. So vibrant was this book that not only did i fly off my sofa with excitement no more than every page and a half, but it induced much lengthy phone conversations about its content as well as a constant and consistent renewed thought process to my life.
Transferable! The positivity from this book is transferable and as i relayed it to others, so has it been transferred to them. They've began to make changes and i sure as hell have done so too. My problems have not lessened but my perception has completely changed. I stopped seeking to focus on my problems but now on solutions with enthusiasm. To add, i further that by putting action each day to those potential solutions and I enjoy where my life is going now. Things are seriously happening in my life and around me.
Its a small book, readable in only a couple of hours. But the information is that fantastic that you will never get past a few pages at a time for the sheer reflection and analysis of the points raised or realising how it can be applied to your life, the clarity of the book, simplicity and the fact that through a change in thinking and behaviour, can make a dramatic change to every aspect of your life. And, yes, i've now invested in more of this man's products, i'm converted. Don't doubt this book :-)

An absolute gem!
|
Anthony Robbins is an international leader in peak performance. About 100 pages long, this book is effectively a condensed version of his larger editions and it is an absolute gem! It contains simple steps to allow you to feel happier and improve virtually any area of your life. Both quick and simple this guide helps you take charge of your life using powerful life-changing tools and principles. Here is a quick excerpt to give you a taster before you buy this book! - "So many people say things like, "Well, I really should lose some weight. I should make more money. I should do something to get a better job. I should stop drinking." But you can "should" all over yourself, and things still won't change! The only way to change your life is to make a real decision. A real decision means to cut off any other possibility than the one you've decided to make a reality."
What a great expression "you can should all over yourself!" - it's so true when you think about it.
