Rating: Summary: Excuse Me, Your Life is Waiting Review: This book is profoundly important. It gave me goosebumps ofjoy, ecstasy and hope and made me cry from happiness! The otherreviewers are right -- you will never need another self-help bookafter reading this. The application of the universal laws are very simple but will transform your life. It is a book to be read over and over again -- a delight! Thank you, Lynn.
Rating: Summary: last of the self help books Review: Lynn hits the nail on the head with refreshing honesty and humor. This is really so obvious I can't believe no one has ever written about it so clearly like this before. Postitive thinking just isn't enough- it is too easy for your thoughts to be saying one thing while your physiology and emotions are feeeeeeling something completely different. It's the feelings that make all the difference!If you don't figure out how to get your self and your life in order after reading Lynn's book, read it again and again until you do! You will never need another book on the subject. Thank you Lynn!
Rating: Summary: Excuse me your life is waiting Review: I have been feeling overwhelmed with life and just the other day on my lunch hour I walked into a neat little store across the street from my office and began a conversation with a lady behind the counter. I bought a couple of small items and we began to talk. One thing lead to another and she told me she had read a self help book which is the only self help book she will ever need. I was impressed since I have read many looking for answers. I asked her the name of the book and then asked her where I could buy it. She pointed to it on the shelf. I bought it and read in within 24 hours. The author has hit on a profound approach and that is we spend our time thinking about what we don't want rather than what we do want.This is so true because I have been doing that for years and I have been in what Lynn clls sameville. Especially in reference to relationships.I have spent too much time trying to change what I don't want but I have only been changing them in my mind. The physical change has not yet happened so I have resolved nothing. This book made me aware that I need to dream again and to enjoy what is good in my life and stop concentrating on those problem areas that are someone elses to fix.Lynn makes the process simply to understand but she doesn't minimize the work that will be necessary to make changes. Nor does she tell you this will be a quick fix. After reading the book I feel energized and want to get my life moving forward. I think this is the only book I will ever need to read but may have to read it over and over to remind myself that I am responsible for my happiness and am free to do what I want to make me happy.
Rating: Summary: UPLIFTING Review: It was a joy to read her book. She seems to be following in the footsteps of my favorite author whom I've studied the past two decades: Neville (Goddard), an early twentieth-century mystic who explained these principles in his books, Awakened Imagination; The Law and the Promise; Your Faith Is Your Fortune, for example, all in print today. So many New Thought groups and magazines like to excerpt his work to fit their aims and end up diluting his ideas, the same one Lynn emphasizes, concerning feelings and how they link to reality. If pressed for time, read Lynn's last chapter, where she itemizes the Major Don'ts and Do's, as well as starting immediately her 30-program of choosing one item a day to appreciate about yourself. The latter really helps zero in and sustain a sense of joy inherent in "the good life."
Rating: Summary: Excuse Me, Your Life Is Waiting Review: Who knew happiness was as simple as putting out good vibes? Lynn Grabhorn did and she makes it easy to learn how to do just that. "Excuse Me, Your Life Is Waiting" changed my life forever. You would not believe the positive differences in my career, family, and friendships. It's truly magical and I highly recommend to everyone.
Rating: Summary: Best of the self-help bunch Review: The notion of attracting good things into one's life is not new. What Grabhorn does is offer a step-by-step guide that is businesslike, not patronizing. She acknowledges her own struggles, which makes the whole process seem do-able. The comparison to the addiction withdrawal process is especially valuable. A lot of the AA warnings (don't get tired or hungry, stay away from bad influences) fit here too. I found myself wishing I could call someone to share experiences. Perhaps the author could train some designated representatives so we could debrief as we read.
Rating: Summary: GET THIS BOOK! Review: This easy-to-read book explains how to intentionally create your reality. It takes the simple method taught by Abraham (see www.abraham-hicks.com) and illustrates how you can use it right now to create whatever you want. I think everyone should have this book. It's well written, up-beat, wise, and practical. -- Joe Vitale, author fo way too many books to list here
Rating: Summary: It works Review: Though the book could be more tightly organized and doesn't explore the area of maintaining an attitude of joy in intimate relationships very deeply, the concepts she presents do work. I've used them for years to handle problem students in my college classes. Until I read her book I never thought to extend the concept of maintaining positive emotions to the rest of my life.
Rating: Summary: A REAL How-To Review: This is one of the few books I've read that actually explains step-by-step how to get from where you are to where you want to be. No guess-work! And the results are immediate. No kidding. Ms. Grabhorn has a relaxed and humorous writing style that keeps you turning the pages. If you do only a fraction of what she suggests, your life will change. I promise!
Rating: Summary: Practical and uplifting Review: Of the many books in this genre, this excellent one has the ability to engage with and uplift the reader without ever being overly facile.
