Simple Thoughts That Can Change Your Life [Hardcover]

Gerald G. Jampolsky (Author), Diane V. Cirincione (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 1, 2004

From the bestselling author of LOVE IS LETTING GO OF FEAR comes an inspiring collection of mind-opening, life-affirming meditations that will break down barriers and gently push aside blocks that keep us from discovering our true natures. That one single thought can change our lives is a revolutionary and powerful idea. For although we see and hear with our eyes and ears, the way we experience life is ultimately determined by the way we think about or interpret what happens around us. If we follow negative thought patterns of anger and distrust, then our experience of life will be full of bitterness and disappointment. SIMPLE THOUGHTS THAT CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE will teach you to embrace the ideas of forgiveness, sharing, communication, and love, creating limitless possibilities for a positive, nourishing, and successful existence.

"We are what we think. Our thoughts determine what we see and what we experience. Perhaps the biggest gift that we have been given by God is the power to determine what thoughts we put into our minds. One simple thought can change how we look at the world, ourselves, and each other-one simple thought can totally change our lives."

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Little of Book of Insights!, June 18, 2005

This review is from: Simple Thoughts That Can Change Your Life (Hardcover)

I actually purchased this book several years ago, & I just recently got it out again to re-read - and I'm really glad I did.

This book is jam packed with excellent insights designed to help you achieve the joyful life you've always wanted. It also includes step-by-step instructions on how to get the most from what is offered.

The idea behind this book seems to be that we need to change our thoughts before we can change our lives. I've read many books now on this topic, and I have to say that it makes quite a lot of sense when you take the time to look back on your life and ponder how you got into certain situations, and can realize why your life is how it is today.

Each insight in this book is very short - about 1 sentence in length - so it's quite easy to memorize the "thought of the day" and meditate/ponder on it whenever you get the chance.

Once you've come to the realization that your thoughts are greatly impacting your life, this book can be of assistance by providing you with new ways to look at things - ways that can assist you in creating the life of your dreams.

I would suggest reading "Love is Letting Go of Fear" - by this same author, as well as "The Power of Intention" by Wayne Dyer for more info. on the power of our thoughts, and how to go about changing them so that you're creating the life you want, instead of attracting those things/experiences that you'd really rather avoid.
