"Four Pathways to Success" has been a God send for me during this time of my life. It is metaphoric, but between the metaphors, there is strong and deep instructions on acquiring 'Internal Peace'. This is not a book (or tapes) that can be read or listened to just once. Each time I listen to the cassettes, I hear another message that will only benefit my desire to grow further. With the many 12-step programs now in existence, offering steps to healing of many addictions, this is a MUST!

I love his stuff, new and old. But this work went off on tangents. Stories shared I didn't find spiritually relevent or enlightening. This author is great but get his other titles.

Usually Wayne Dyer's materials are clear, concise, & to the point. So, when I read that the "Four Pathways to Success" was going to cover the specific pathways of discipline, wisdom, unconditional love, & surrender, discussing how they could be applied in "real life" & helping people to be more powerful, peaceful, & conscious, that is exactly what I expected - but it wasn't what I got.

In fact, it wasn't until the second CD, when Dr. Dyer was discussing unconditional love, that he brought up any of the pathways - saying that this was the third pathway with discipline & wisdom being the first & second - yet he hadn't discussed discipline nor wisdom before this in any structured way - I don't even think he used those words before going into the unconditional love aspect. At first I thought that I might have "zoned out" & missed something, so I went back & listened to the first CD several times, but to no avail - there were no specific discussions on discipline or wisdom to be found.

It seemed to me that in this recorded seminar Dr. Dyer went off on quite a few tangents - telling lots & lots of stories - and it may have gotten him off track a bit. However, even though these tangents & stories were not what I expected, & I don't think the CD description fits the material, I did learn a lot from listening to it - Dr. Dyer always seems to impart wisdom no matter what he does...

So, even though what you get might be different than what you're expecting with the "Four Pathways to Success", it's still definitely a worthwhile purchase. His stories & tangents are such that they'll stick with you, helping you to absorb, understand, & use various spiritual principles that can change your life.

Wayne's strengths are his compassion, his skills as a consumate public speaker and presenter, and his insight. All are present in generous measure in this double cassette or CD.

The content is from the recent Dyer era which delves unashamedly into matters very metaphysical - but also works its way up to this through many insights and suggestions that will appeal to people who seek more "ordinary" advice.

Four Pathways to Success is certainly entertaining into the bargain, which helps if you like to listen to the tapes/CD a few times (as I do).

I've read a couple of Dr. Dyer's books and loved them! They helped me SO much! I also downloaded from Itunes a couple of his podcasts...for only .95 cents. This $18.00 CD repeats a lot of what those .95 cent podcasts have on them. Given that money is tight for me right now since I'm not working, I was disappointed that this CD was pretty much a more expensive version of what I'd already heard. However, toward the end of the CD, when he gets more to the whole point, the "pathways", there are some helpful insights. I was expecting much more from this CD set and I am somewhat disappointed by the content. I'm still a big fan of his though!
