Rating: Summary: Energize, Create and Discover your True potential Review: `Immanuel Kant said that enlightment is a persons emergence from "Self-imposed immaturity", self-imposed immaturity is when we deliberately lie to ourselves and become frightened children in the face of adult challenges, instead of becoming brave men and women who are simply challenged by tasks ahead. Nelson Mandela said, "Our worst fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure"' I am 100 percent moved by this book; moved because like many of us I would lie to myself and justify an inaction with some self-defeating excuse. The fact is to the contrary there is plenty a person can do as we all have the power to do so. I was at Lance Armstrong's website and it said "If You Believe; You can; You will"
Rating: Summary: A great listen--definitely worth the price. Review: I really enjoyed listening to Chandler read his book. Not only was the information dead on, he has a great voice. There are tons of nuggets in this book and the only negative to the tape is that you can not underline all the ideas, thoughts and key phrases included. After reading one of his books and listening to this, I think I am going to put Chandler on par with Harry Beckwith, Pat Williams and John Maxwell and just one rung below Harvey Mackay. His books hit home and are worth reading/listening to more than once!
Rating: Summary: and the truth shall set you free... Review: Chandler has a way of making what we already know something to be grasped for. "17 Lies and the Truth that will set you Free" is a straight forward account of what we teach ourselves and our children to keep us from believing in ourselves. My 80-year-old mother, who has had 2 strokes is reading this for the third time! She is no longer too old to work on improving her memory or her health. She, as we all, can identify with the lies Chandler has identified and overcome. To say the book is life-changing, may overstate; but it does remove the lies that keep us from wanting to change! This is simple, fast, valuable reading. As another reader says, the implementation is the difficult part, but Chandler removes most of the excuses for not improving ourselves.
