Rating: Summary: Want A Better You? Read This Book! Review: As a student of the "Self-Help" genre of books, tapes, and the like I came across the title of this text in an obscure martial arts on-line retail store. I had never heard of this title nor of the author.
The write-ups and boastful hype which described the book were too juicy to pass up, i.e.:
"Cleanse your body from unwanted habits; Learn to accept change and have the courage to try new things; Discover how to perceive and get along with others; Gather parenting skills; Find success and follow your destiny; Learn how your home affects your life; Arm yourself with secret words that will send antagonists running away, leaving you the victor instead of the victim; Uncover how to calm your mind to find the answers you seek; Wake up energized," etc., etc..
Having recently received my Black-Belt in TaeKwonDo I was curious to see what kind of esoteric, "held closely to the vest," secret type of martial arts/psychological information that author Master Abruzzi was actually dispensing.
so I purchased the book to satisfy my curiosity.
Review: I can honestly tell you that you will reap the price of this book hundreds of times over. This book is absolutely one of the finest self-help books I have ever read. There are no secrets. Only Master Abruzzi stating the obvious and giving you permission to do it. For example, on Page 93, "If you owe someone and apology -- just apologize. People lose contact with loves ones over words. What a waste of time." The genius is in the simplicity. Abruzzi needs no colorful trappings to disguise his truth. It is beautiful, almost a work of art.
I could go on and on, but I feel that this book has the potential to truly "change your life," if you desire it. I read this book and sniffed, snorted, and choked back tears several times. Author Abruzzi, drawing upon his own life experiences, tells it like it is and like it needs to be said. What a refreshing experience. Do yourself a favor and get this book today! Five stars. Bravo!
Rating: Summary: Please allow me to step out of my own way Review: What a book .. what a man! I can define this book simply:A path to balance in the mind, body and spirit through Michael's wisdom and insights. I have dropped close to 30 lbs. in three months EFFORTLESSLY and without any "pain" attached. My cholesterol has plunged, my energy has surged and even more importantly, my self-induced stress levels are now totally within my control and understanding. I have learned the secret of attachments and much, much more. I no longer (almost never) give up control of myself by allowing anger to consume me. My many thanks to the Master for guiding me on my own way back to salvation and prosperity. I look forward to his future works.
