The principles in this book really work

I have always said life is a game but I didn’t really understand how to play the game. This book has actually changed my life. I have listen four times in a row and began to apply the principle. I didn’t get along with my daughter, so I changed me, even though everyone in the household would say she is the problem. Now, I see a huge change in our relationship. I also saw a change with an Israeli at a store in the mall who angered me three to four months ago. I love Israelis and always support them until I met this one guy. I was at the mall on New Year’s Eve and saw him. Strangely, he crossed my mind a few days prior. He saw me and approached me with a smile and gave me a big hug. He forgot all about our altercation and hugged me a second time. We had a such a pleasant conversation afterwards. I can’t wait to see what are the great things lie ahead for me by Putting the principles into practice.

Not worth purchase

This book got so many rave reviews, I was excited to listen but disappointed once I finally did. I made it through a few chapters because the narrator’s voice is soothing and lovely. In each chapter, the author simply refers to a number of anecdotes and biblical quotes where gratitude brings abundance into a life. It seems oversimplified and implies that those who experience misfortune have somehow brought it on themselves.
