Publisher's summary

In Excuses Begone! Dr. Wayne W. Dyer reveals how to change lifelong, self-defeating thinking patterns that prevent you from living at the highest levels of success, happiness, and health. You may know what to think but find it terribly difficult to change thinking habits that have been with you since childhood.

This business of changing habituated thinking patterns is really the business of eliminating the same old tired excuses. People are forever using excuses and defending those excuse patterns as if they were actually true. But there are no excuses worth defending ever, even if they've always been part of your life.

This audiobook represents Wayne's effort to help anyone whose self-defeating thoughts are persistently present to learn how to discard those old thinking habits - and discover the infinite possibilities of life!

Going to the beautiful waterfall and pool on Maui for a swim to prepare to write the next chapter. I will be sitting in contemplation envisioning this scenario starting now!

Excuses yes you’re gone!

I did find it very useful. I’ve read about the law of attraction some 15 years ago or so, and since then I’ve on and off reading about from different authors. But my ego always found a way to get me off applying it , and thus believing in it totally .
Excuses were such a relieving way to stop you from trying .After reading this I believe yes my excuses should not be welcomed. Wish my luck applying it

Integrating

Wayne Dyer has truly inspired in this book. Drawing. Heavily from the Tao Te Ching, the chapters and exercises really inspire one to choose living from ones inner Divinity, and giving service to others, over the self seeking ego. Resulting in a Source like mind and heart Set!!!
