Success Is for You

By: Dr. David R. Hawkins

Narrated by: Peter Lownds

Length: 6 hrs and 9 mins

Publisher's Summary

Success Is for You draws upon many concepts that fans of Dr. Hawkins will recognize and applies them to the world of business and the psychology of success. Expanding upon the illuminating discussion of the attractor patterns of success from Power vs. Force, this remarkable never-before-published book pulls back the curtain on the inner workings of the successful mind. Success, according to Dr. Hawkins, is an attitude we inhabit rather than a goal we strive for.

New listeners will find this to be a perfect introduction to an incredible teacher and foremost expert on mental processes, providing profound insights and real-world examples to help anyone focus on - and consequently achieve - what they desire. This fascinating book reveals:

• The causality formula for success (and deconstruction of so-called failure)
• How goodwill can actually turn to profit
• Nine acid-test steps to determine our mode of being
• How to get to the top (and why the destination is really our starting point)

Yet its scope ranges far beyond a mere how-to manual. As Dr. Hawkins says, "Having facts and know-how...does not guarantee success. There are other factors involved. It is these other secret factors that we are going to explore." The secret factors - the energetic power principles underlying success - are decoded here...delivering an eternal message of possibility for us all.

Another Great Book by Dr. Hawkins!

Actually some new stuff for me...

I've read a LOT I. the fields of success. psychology, philosophy, spiritually etc.

I don't actively look for "something new" but rather for new viewpoints and a deeper understanding.

This was my first (not last) exposure to the author. He has a couple unique viewpoints. Some things I'd never considered. The book is deep and definitely a keeper. Read it.

If I had one beef with the book it's that it occasionally takes on a slightly judgemental tone. Especially, he repeatedly talks about restaurants and wait staff. I would venture a guess that he's never done it based upon his criticism. Yes, it is criticism and not in a round about way.

To anyone who's been in the business it's a source of eternal frustration that people have these universal criticisms ONLY if they've never done it.

It's not just that but the fact that he criticizes that is a little less favourable. It's not just the criticism but it takes 1/3 of the space of the book. I feel the points could have been made without it.

That said, the book is excellent even still.

It starts slow so be patient. The last 3 chapters are where it's at. hang in there.

fantastic! you are already a success!

interesting, great stories, and practical tips for conducting heart based business throughout life.

his insights and philosophy are refreshing in a world of over achievers and highly forced action.

Hmm...

It was difficult to enjoy this audio book as most of the chapters are filled with complaints about restaurants and the word "boring" was used repeatedly... which makes it... dare I say, boring? I understand using examples of bad customer service in restaurants to illustrate how people fail but to use it over and over and for so many chapters, it just becomes tedious. It is clear to me that Mr. Hawkins must have his diet soda, thousand island dressing, ginger ale, etc, to feel satisfied and for the check to arrive on demand. But rather than learning about success by the end of the book, all I kept thinking was "Maybe he should open up his own restaurant and apply all the rules/things he likes." Suffice to say, I didn't get much from this. Unfortunately.

Really good—mind shifting

A shift in how you see relationships, in how you do even small things brings success.

Yep, I’d started doing the small daily thing he suggests & it is mind shifting.

welcoming a new me

Loved it, it served me exceptionally well on my journey to enlightenment. Highly recommended.

Very basic

This was discovered in 2015. Consequently, I didn't realize it was actually written in the 1990s. It's pretty basic business info. None of the material from his later books is included. While that makes sense, given that it predates Eye of the I, Power v Force, etc by several years, it was still disappointing.

It's not bad. It's just very basic. Given the time investment in listening, I'd recommend choosing some of Hawkins' later works, which are exceptional.

I'm so glad i found this. Thank you for sharing

this was a great buy. i read power vs force over 15 years ago and this was great too

Revisit this annually

A beautiful business book full of heart and good spirited examples. Even though it was clearly written some time ago it is still relevant today perhaps more so! Love what this preaches. Thank you Dr. D.Hawkins

don't expect much

sounds like he wrote the book either before all others. the doctor sounds like a grumpy old person with nothing but complaints on how businesses act like and projecting his feelings and experience on others. a quote that's unlike him if you read his other books "I always thought that we're judged on our death bed on wether or not we did our best in life"

Wow! This is a must listen.

Just what I expected from one of the greatest spiritual teachers of our time.

No fluff, no filler just good honest information you can use and put into practice. I highly recommend that anyone who truly seeks the path to fulfillment gives this book there attention.

Not only does Doc light up the pathway, he gives sound practical advise which anyone can easily follow.

There are many analogies which and references to restaurants and stores. This however, does give perfect real life examples of our humanness and how we really see the world around us.

This book will leave you astounded at just how much we miss every day because we are operating on auto pilot most of the time.

I even came up with a new CSI, just from listening. Only my CSI is:
Compassion - Service - Integrity.

Listen and learn from the wisdom of the Doc.

Peter Lownds has also done a fabulous job in the narration of the book. Easy to listen to and perfectly paced.

Another hidden gem from our beloved Doc.

Not much to say except that the book was great. Exceptional. Narrator was also great. If I remember correctly Doc once said on his lectures "you have to master the world to transcend it" and this book, his last book, is that last peace of the puzzle if success is the part of your spiritual path. The message of the book had a profound impact on me like always when reading/listening Doc's books. l always have a sense of familiarity with the topic when reading his books because there is so much power in his words that you instantly know that that what he says is true. I'm so grateful that I came in contact with his work.

Disappointing

Dr Hawkins is one of my favorite authors but this book was mostly like a taxi driver chit chat; not much value there...just nagging about negative aspects of businesses 👎🏼
