Review # 1 was written on 2009-07-21 00:00:00 Norbert Matthias Karl This book essentially focuses on one premise: When you eliminate a belief, you change your reality and create new possibilities. In theory, it is brilliant; however, lasting change is far more difficult to sustain. Lefkoe attempts to explain - through case studies and his rhetoric -- how to accomplish this in your life. I am not sure he succeeded in this endeavor, which is why I gave it 3 stars. However, he does make a few fascinating and worthy recommendations on parenting, health care, and education that made this read worth it for me. For parents, he asks, "What is my child likely to conclude about herself and life as a result of the interaction we just had?" Oh, boy! On achieving a better health care system, he offers, "If people trying to solve the health care problem sought solutions consistent with alternative paradigms, it wouldn't be long before alternative solutions were devised, accepted, and implemented." Regarding education, he asserts that instead of emphasizing facts and acquiring the "right body of information, students today should "learn HOW to learn, ask good questions, be open to and evaluate new concepts, and be taught facts as if they might change."

Review # 2 was written on 2016-07-01 00:00:00 Richard E Boal He spent way too much time building up his theory and downplaying psychotherapy and his theory was unimpressive to say the least. He unnecessarily said the same thing over and over. One can sum the entire book up with the phrase "your attitude determines your outlook which influences your behavior".
