This book is the wonderful 'missing piece' of the Secret franchise. I highly recommend reading the book--if you are interested in learning how to create positive changes in your life and manifest your desires; This new book teaches you how to 'look in the mirror' and make a REAL change in your life.

David Friedman was always a hero of mine, and here he shows that he has more than just a talent for music, his inspirational story is amazing; and i hope this author will have another book up his sleeve soon.

So, if you want to become a creator of dreams, and start attracting into your life all the things that you really want - read this book and, follow the guidance and put the teachings into practice.

Thinking of so many books on the topic of self help, and can't remember a single book that comes close to the teachings of David Friedman; not only a great Disney composer, David created an innovated system of attracting wealth, health and happiness; a great read that can relate to everyone; what I love about it is that it's not about "wishful" or "positive thinking", as Kathie Lee Gifford said: "If you tried every other self help book and wonder why it doesn't work... read this book"...

David Friedman generously, deeply, passionately, and intelligently gives the reader the tools to a sensational life. I can honestly feel positive change in my life by applying the teachings of this book. It works! THOUGHT EXCHANGE is not easy, and it's not magic. It takes strength and courage. It takes thoughtful, disciplined work, and trust in the universe. Thank you David Friedman for sharing your wealth of discoveries and daring me to have a sensational life!

This is a good long look at LOA in a different way. if you have read all the books, then this will give you an entirely different look. very clear, very straight forward. If you have a logical mind this will seem more natural to you than "the secret"

I would like to thank David Friedman for this book. I have read many books on positive thinking and manifesting ones dreams, but just thinking positive thoughts or trying to chanel positive energy seemed a bit magical and frankly a bit too good to be true. While we may wish it were as simple as just thinking a happy little thought, we all know that there is more to it than that, otherwise we'd all have "everything" and everything would be "perfect". While I always "knew" that how one thinks or sees things does have a significant impact on their quality of life and success, I couldn't quite get to the place where I "felt" "it" or "got it". And while "it" seemed to "work" for others, "it" never "worked" consistently for me.

A friend mentioned having heard David Friedman speak about his book, The Thought Exchange, and I was immediately intrigued. Thanks to David's insights, his courage to tell his story and share what he and others have learned in a clear practical way, I can see how our thoughts work and how, with sensations that arise with the thoughts, we often get scared and run away from our deepest desires. At the nexus of thoughts/feelings/and sensations, one can successfully "exchange" a thought for a new one, and take life in the direction of ones dreams and desires. However, this must come with the understanding that with the new thought comes new sensations that we must now allow ourselves to experience, even when they seem uncomfortable. Allowing this over and over helps us see that our thoughts are just thoughts, and our sensations are just sensations, and it is safe to carry on. In fact, if we do not, our fears will only get bigger and seem more oppressive.

This book is a life changer if one is really willing to make significant change. The Thought Exchange takes its readers who choose to practice the techniques deeper. As I read the book a bit each morning, I am inspired and excited to try new things, and to pursue some of the projects I had been blocking. The techniquess may be universally applied to life whether one subscribes to a specific religion or not. David does refer to Christian teachings and to some of the teachings of the Unity Church, but after studying world religions and spirituality, this book transcends any speciic "religion" and conveys succinctly "how".

First off, I never gave much stock into self help books. I've read my share and never found any of them to be truly helpful. I've been a fan of David Friedman's music for a long time, and was lucky enough to attend one of his master classes. David was able to get results out of me in a very short period and I was amazed. He spoke of a book he was writing called THE THOUGHT EXCHANGE, and of course my interest was piqued. When the book became available for download, I eagerly bought it! Well, needless to say this book is a gold mine! He very personally tells of his early life and his journey to where he is now which gives the foundation for this book. It's a book that will challenge your thought process and your belief system about your thoughts, but you will get results! I've done local productions in the town I live, and his book always gives me the ability to look at things in a different creative light when I feel challenged as to what what I perceive my limits to be. Do yourself a favor and buy this book! You will NOT be sorry you did. Thank you David!
