Review – Class Act by Dorian Quillen
With all the doom and gloom of the economy, the tragedies that seem to go on forever in the news, what we all need right now is some outstanding, beautiful, encouraging stories of triumph during challenging times. Class Act fills that bill nicely! You can read an excerpt of the book here. You'll want to read more after reading it, I did! Be prepared with tissues and a loved one near by for hugs, you'll need them!
Book Review – “The Secret” By Rhonda Byrne
I've been on a path of enlightenment for more than 18 years now. I've read literally tons of books, new age, spiritual, self-help, occult, and anything else I could get my hands on. They all say basically the same thing that "The Secret" does, but there is a difference in this book, something that none of the others have. That's mass appeal.
Yes, there are some people who would say that it’s just more of the same, and to a certain extent, it is. However, this book puts the Universal Laws that I've read about many times before, in a way that makes it seem just a little more practical, a little more reachable. That's why so many people have read the book, and why it has changed so many lives.
It doesn't matter how many times you hear the same thing over again, what matters is when you stop hearing it, and start living it. Think back to when you were a teenager. I'm sure there is that one thing your parents kept drilling in your heads, that one thing that you HATED to hear, over and over. Now that you are an adult, you probably understand it better, maybe even heard the same words coming out of your mouth to your teenager. I know I have. The Secret is just like that. Not really "new" information, but it makes more sense now.
For a lot of people, it's their first taste of some of the Universal Laws mentioned in the book. For them, this is a fantastic book. It doesn't put any religious leanings in it, so it'll appeal to just about everyone. It's very easy to understand, and gives a lot of wonderful resources to expand further in your studies.
For the person who's more familiar with the Universal Laws, this is a good quick read, like a refresher course. For me, it was like a confirmation of my beliefs and understandings. It also gave me very real, very easy techniques to implement into my everyday life.
So if you're looking for something new, this really isn't all that new. But if you're looking for easy to understand, step by step guide, for the newbie or expert, this is a great book. I recommend this book to just about everyone I know.
