Remember This Review
This book revolutionizes the way to approach and apply personal growth. It offers the potential to radically transform human consciousness individually (if a mass amount of individuals become aware of this book, it could elevate the range of the entire collective consciousness of mankind).
The Heart of the Book: Truth, Love, & Power
The heart of the book, talks about three core principles: Truth, Love, and Power (these will be explained with detail, later in this review). No matter how big or small the problem(s) you have in your life, it is guaranteed that one (or more) of these three core principles are not being applied. I have experienced and observed that the simplicity this is more powerful than most can fathom.
In fact at first impression, the simplicity of these core principles did not take shape on my consciousness. In order to catch the full glimpse of the impact, it took reading the book (you can buy the book here), listening to these free interviews with Steve Pavlina explaining the book, and soaking in the information. A couple days later (out of the blue) I had an "aha" moment. The sudden impact of this book hit me.
At this point, I was curious how other people experienced this book and what they thought. I was quite torn after reading both batches of reviews: one and two (about 109 total reviews so far), that nobody empathized the potential impact this book has on their lives (let alone society). The impression I got from a majority of the reviews, was that they got distracted from the heart of the book (the three core principles). The tremendous amount of value the book offers, makes it challenging to absorb. As a result, it is easy to get distracted.
I could tell you how the book guides you to understand the core principals: truth, love, power, how the three core principles make up the fundamental principles: oneness, authority, courage, intelligence, how it teaches you to use these fundamental principles in every level of your life: habits, career, money, health, relationships, spirituality... but instead I am only going to focus on the core principles.
Truth, Love, & Power Explained
Yet first, please recognize that everyone has different linguistic representations or impressions to words. In other words, people have different ideas, meanings, and definitions to words. The core principles are: truth, love, and power, but to you this might mean: honesty, connection, and responsibility. The words do not matter as much as the concepts behind them:
Truth - There are two main points that make the idea/concept of truth:
- The idea of truth is about discovering new truths about who you are and the reality you live, in order to accelerate growth. Gathering new ideas, information, and knowledge about yourself and reality. You are going to grow no matter what experiences you have, but you can consciously/deliberately grow through being open to ideas and seeing if they match your reality through own experience. Be aware of more truths that lead you to what you truly desire.
- This concept is also about recognizing where you are at in your life right now and being 100% honest about it. No denying what is really happening in your reality. No pretending or make believe. Realizing that there is a problem and admitting to it. Acknowledging what you truly desire.
Love - This idea is about connecting with people and things that influence the life you desire. Connecting to the people/things you resonate with most and weakening the connection from people/things that do not reflect the shape or path of the life you prefer.
Connect with people that match the desires you wish to achieve in life. For example, if your desire is to quit smoking, connect with non-smokers. If your desire is to pull yourself out of debt, connect with people who have already freed themselves from debt. If you desire to live consciously, connect with people who are conscious decision makers. Connect only with what you truly desire.
Quote from the book: "Will you talk to you spouse or connect with the television? Will you take your next vacation at a favorite spot or go someplace new this time? Will you bond with a pet or go to a party? Whenever you choose to make one connection, you simultaneously choose not to connect with all of the other possibilities.
If you want to grow consciously, you must deliberately decide which connections you'll strengthen and which you'll allow to weaken. Such choices ultimately determine the shape of your life. In the long run, your life becomes a reflection of what you choose to connect with most often. When you feel good about your connections, you come into greater alignment with the principle of love."
Power - This concept is about taking responsibility for your life, rather than playing a victim. You only have the power to create the life you choose, once you start taking action. You will not take action or give yourself the power to create the life you desire (solving a problem) by giving your power away. Take action and move towards what you truly desire.
Quote from the book: "Power is the third principle of personal development. It is your ability to consciously and deliberately create the world around you. When your power is weak, you can't effectively satisfy your needs and desires, and you become a victim of your environment. When your power is strong, you successfully cultivate a life of your own choosing, and your environment reflects it."
"As you succeed in growing your power, you'll be able to fulfill your needs and desires with greater ease. You'll find it easier to set and achieve meaningful goals. The alternative is to wallow in powerlessness, thereby neglecting your needs and desires. If you neglect your needs, you may physically die; if you neglect your desires, you lower your consciousness and feel dead on the inside."
These Core Principle's Are Universally Everywhere!
The significance of these core principles have hit me with vastness. In fact, I observe them everywhere. Every personal development material I scan through (books, articles, audio, podcasts, etc...), I can determine which one(s) of these core principles the author is subconsciously teaching (if any).
Within a instant, I can look at any problem, recognize where the problem is, and know how to solve it. It does not even have to be a problem, I can look at anything and maximize it, just by using the three core principles. It is easy to recognize and know how to solve things by reading this book, but it is by no means easy and quick to accomplish. There are no such thing as easy and quick fixes in this universe. This book will map out: how to identify the root of any personal problem(s), know the solution, and how to apply it. The rest is up to you.
These core principles are so universal: that they can be applied to any problem, any person, anywhere in the world, and still manage to solve a problem. You will not get the full impact of what I am talking about here, until you buy the book. The price is cheap, compared to the value it offers.
Remember This Review
Just remember this review (or bookmark it) and do not get distracted like the majority of reviews I read. Keep in mind that the core principles are the root of the book. You can read the first chapter for free here and buy the book here. After you read the whole book, please post a comment below. My desire is to find somebody who understands the tremendous potential phenomenal affect this has on the growth in human consciousness; alternately perhaps it is because Steve and I are both lefthanded Aries. ;)
