Summary: Am I Richard?
Review: As I read this book I thought, "This character is me...I'm Richard!" I have often wondered why the same type of situation often appeared in my life again and again. Relationship issues, self-doubt, low self-esteem, etc, etc. Now I understand! The work presented in this book is truly life changing! I have been doing the worksheets......this is a tool for managing your whole life. I have seen changes in the physical, mental and emotional arenas of my life. And for the first time have experienced the love and acceptance that life is suppose to be about. Thank you, michael, for writing this book and sharing the tools.

I am a very spiritual person with much read time, prayer and meditation behind me and I felt this book gave me further insight into much more for me. It also helped me further understand reality and actuality. It is a book that you won't be able to put down. Such a enhancement to anyone's library to enhance your life.

Summary: Fantastic! Mind-Expanding! One of the best books EVER!
Review: I don't know how to explain just how powerful this book is. I received it by "accident", as part of another's person product, and was so impressed with the book that I stayed up till 2:30 AM reading it. It is wise, practical, soul-searching, heart-warming, and empowering. I read dozens of books EVERY week, I've written a dozen books of my own, I've interviewed authors, gurus, and teachers, and I haven't seen a book THIS good in maybe 25 years. I'm not kidding. There is power in this book---and reading it can make you a powerful force in yuor own life. I strongly suggest you get it, read it, re-read it, and watch miracles occur in your life. --Joe Vitale, author of "Spiritual Marketing," and other books and tapes, ...

Summary: It works for teens!
Review: I read this book at my mother's insistence. I was having teenage relationship problems...AGAIN. Then I did a worksheet from the back of the book. It really works. The difference between what was actually happening in my world and the "reality" in my mind about that event were totally different things. Once I learned the tool for holding to love and releasing the goals I held - the anger and frustration left. To understand that I have the keys to my life and can change the events that keep reoccurring is empowering. Thank you to Dr. Ryce for writing this book and for making the tools available and to Mom for making me read it. ;-)

Summary: I could actually apply these ideas in my life. Exciting!!
Review: In reading this book I could see myself and that I am not the only one who feels the way I do. It was neet to see how Richard applied what Dr. Ryce taught him, I am doing some of the same things he did, and can now see a way to work out of the conflict I've been in for so long. This is how you spell relief, its working.

I am doing the worksheets from the last chapter and things are changing. I've read every self help book I could find over the last ten years and this is the best one yet. James Redfield was right, I think this is going to change my life forever.

Thank You Michael.

Summary: I can't explain it, but it works!!!
Review: This book was given to a friend of mine. One lQQk at it shouted out "SAME OLD-SAME OLD" & a glance through seemed to confirm this. I was especially unimpressed to see that it had been self-published & that most of the reviews quoted were just people like me. I haven't even read the "Celestine Prophecy," (whose author wrote the cover's leading rave) nor do I intend to- the word "prophesy" belonging with all the other metaphysical mumbo-jumbo that passes for 'self-help' or 'spirituality' these days. More red flags: the author/publisher refuses to capitalize his name, & even worse! uses the title 'dr.' (he is not an M.D.- his doctorates-small 'd' are in 'naturopathy & holistics.

However reluctantly, I did promise to give it a 'once-over' for my friend who knows that I enjoy a 'good' self-help read (such as "Messie No More" which really did help me to clean up my act.)

As expected, I found the writing very amateurish, consisting of a feigned intensive conversation between the author and a man suffering from 'failed relationships syndrome.' Much of it seems to be bits & pieces of standard self-help information, just re-packaged for the vocabulary & attention span challenged. My only real disagrement arose over the author's insistence that we are created for a world of love. He presents this as a simple fact that just is - no justification necessary. But who's perfect? I decided to just ignore this & get to the worksheets that were promised to change my life.

So you can imagine my surprise when they actually did!!! Well, perhaps not my whole life, but certainly my thinking about some issues that had been bothering me for a long, long time. That is all I can tell you about this book, except that I am now ordering my own copy!

Summary: Life-Changing
Review: Wow, Dr. Michael Ryces' book "Why Is This Happening To Me .... Again" has changed my whole perception about life, and my life. Raised in an abusive home I have struggled all my life (I am 36 now) to have peaceful and healthy relationships, that is yet to happen. Relationships have been the the most painful part of my life. There was so much anger in my home. Finally, this book gave me the insight to change my perceptions, and what I learned. The anger and fear are not a part of me, just learned and I can change that with these tools. I've always looked at Christ's life as an example,as well as, other great prophets. They were always at peace no matter what happened or what someone did. I couldn't maintain that behavior just by trying to emmulate that, because I didn't understand about "our realities". I would still end up getting angry and blaming someone and then hating myself. This book precisely explains how to be at peace with yourself and the world. Wow. I can't convey how grateful I am for this wisdom. There are some relationships in my life I do not think I would ever have been able to 'let go of' if it wasn't for this book. Now, I CAN have peace in my head and in my world. This feels so good. Thank You, Dr. Michael Ryce. Cydney
