One each page, a wise sentence is printed. The idea is that you open the book to a random page. The sentence you get is your personalized bit of wisdom for success.
I'm not a fan of Dr. Dyer. I wasn't able to get through the first couple of chapters of "The Power of Intention." But so far I like this book.
Here are three bits of wisdom that I came across so far:
"If you are suffering in your life right now, I can guarantee that this condition is tied up with some kind of attachment to how things should be going."Wow. I'll get bent out of shape at least a few times each day when some software doesn't do what I expect, or I get stopped by a few consecutive traffic lights, or when I have to enter my account number into the automated telephone system just to find out their mailing address.
"Alcohol, as well as all drugs -- legal and otherwise -- lower your body's energy level and weaken you. By retreating from these substances, you can achieve the level of success you crave."Once I realized that caffeine is a drug, this bit of wisdom hit the bullseye.
"Try viewing everyone who comes into your life as a teacher."I knew this one, but I forgot it! Sometimes it's fun and helpful to discuss with your friends and family what we can learn from one another. Don't forget the pets -- the animals in your life are probably your best teachers!
