I agree with Mr. Collaro's review. In over 6 hours, the author said 2 or 3 things that made sense. One was if you want to do something...own it! Dont say I'd like to do this or that, say I AM this or that and sayit with conviction.(As a life coach Id like to add that doingb this in the mirror many times daily and writing it down as often as possible will really make it work or forget about it, you have the wrong goal if you wont do it.) The second thing he says is that everything ahs a reason and is karmic, so when you find yourself in a job or relationship or even a supermarket and you are unhappy, maybe the universe needs you there to "hold it together" for everyone else with your energy. I like that. But now you dont have to waste 6 hours listening to the cd's.

In fact this cd set was a turning point for me as I expected something so different than the usual, self improvement stuff or new age rehash. Now I know, you get to a point where you did the work, you read for years and now everything sounds either the same or redundant and that means its time to start doing and stop listening, reading and watching the history channel so much and going to seminars. For that I am grateful. As someone who has enjoyed Eckhardt Tolle, Esther Hicks,Pema Chodron, Deepak and Wayne and my 2 favorites, Anthony Robbins and Brian Tracy, I see the entire new age movement is getting played out with repetious teachings on karma, silence, writing down goals, laws of attraction and they keep rehashing it over and over again. Not that Jarrow did that. In fact this whole cd set is a chop suey of buddism,astrology, reiki and boring Indian Guru stories. You can definitely tell he spent a lot of time in India.(Maybe too much time. lol) Personally if I hear one more story about an enlightened swami or zen master I am going to lose it. If you read spiritual books you have heard all the stories in this set in one form or another 50 times before. And the mantras and meditations were so boring I couldnt keep up with one. I was hoping for one exercise or one piece of wisdom that would make me go "Wow, thats what I needed to hear." Sadly it wasnt on any of the 6 cd's.

Rick Jarrow is a very bright guy, but he should have called it a day after his interesting "Yoga of Work" cassettes. (Which I am now bored with as well.)I even downloaded his other stuff on reiki which was not too exciting to me either. If you put Eckhardt tolle and this guy in a room and televised it,sold it as a sleep aide video, you'd cut down on sleep meds nationwide by 50%. This cd set is inspiring me to finish my own book. Too many people once they get published do not know when to quit, and it seems most of the new age writers lead the pack on this. I knew I made a mistake in buying this 3 minutes after it was on. I bought it as my last shot to learn something that wasnt in my new-age/self improvement library. Bottom line is the title is misleading. It does not show you how to manifest anything but tells you to accept your karmic fate with a smile as there is a reason for everything. (I need 6 hours to hear that?) That would be ok too if Rick made it interesting. I'd pass! If you must get something by Rick Jarrow, get his Yoga of Work. He says 5x as much in half the time for less money on the same topic. Nice guy, but not the best story teller to listen to for 6 hours. I feel like I was mugged. I listened to all 6 cd's in one night. Anyone have a vallium?

This CD helped me a lot to develop self confidence in my power to manifest the potentials I innately have. Thank you

Rick's work is so amazing, and this is the best of the best... I listen to these CDs all the time in my car, they are in constant rotation... (well, every once in awhile he gets bumped for some Buddhist chanting)... not your run-of-the-mill New Agey woo-woo The Secret stuff, but rather, a wonderful guide into the deeper well of your being...

The Advanced Manifestation Program: Shaping Your Reality with the Power of Your Desire

I enjoyed the audiobook. The author's voice is good. He gave some very good information about manifesting desires (in which I thought was rare and beautiful), but I don't agree that the book describes ADVANCED manifesting. Mr. Jarow explains that we have to be patience while desires manifest. That's true, but there is a much better answer to this "lag-time" process. The audiobook version I purchased and listened to lasted approx. 6 hours and 28 minutes, which is enough time to go into detail about it.

I think this made no sense at all. The author/speaker just rambled on about nothing.
