By Vernon Marshall View ProfileI confess to being something of a latecomer to the work of Wayne Dyer. My life has been very much enhanced by his writings and his CDs and DVDs. This book is a welcome addition to my library. Dyer is committed to the philosophy enshrined in the Tao Te Ching and the thoughts of Lao-tzu. This book is, however, a very clear exposition of the best of that under-appreciated Chinese take on life. This book is a detailed instruction manual on getting past the “I can’t” that prevents us from allowing our thoughts to create better lives for ourselves. Dyer talks first about the seven Stop the Excuses Principles: Awareness, Alignment, Now, Contemplation, Willingness, Passion and Compassion. Each Principle is clearly explained and sometimes illustrated with quoatations and examples. Also, each principle is underlined by a section on practices to help us absorb the teaching of the principle in question.
The book also, however, has another section that deals with the means of acquiring the needful paradigm shift. It is written in the form of seven answers that are dealt with individually. On one page there is a chart with all the excuse categories that would deny us creative living along with a brief statement contradicting them if the values put forward in the book are taken seriously. The book ends with aids to reinforcement.
It is a most masterly publication. With over 250 pages it is substantial in more ways than one. For me Dyer can do no wrong. This book must be one of his best and must be read by all those who cannot grasp the truth that life can be structured according to your dreams.
By Anne Marie Welch View ProfileWayne Dyer tells us that we can achieve anything we want if we just don’t make the usual excuses which we all seem to have, such as: “I can’t really help the way I am, it is not in my nature, I’m not strong or smart enough, I am too old, I don’t have the energy or it is going to be risky”. He tells us to contact our subconscious and “talk” to it. His advice is not to get stuck in the past with old negative patterns which we picked up along the way our adolescence. Wayne gives us seven principles to think about and gives us examples with his own life with an exercise at the end of each one such as: awareness, alignment willingness, passion, compassion. We must found our true self and realise that we can become successful in whatever we decide to do.
I found this book really challenging but a learning experience. A good reminder of how we let excuses take over our lives, and become our truths! Wayne has certainly done well on it so take the action!
