Precious basket of gems, March 14, 2008
This review is from: The Time Has Come...to Accept Your Intuitive Gifts! (Paperback)
This book is a collection of brief quotes and thoughts that inspire you to trust your intuition. There are normally two thoughts per page and 125 pages, so it is a quick and uplifting read. I have recently read several new age/metaphysical books where I felt like they were just padding a simple concept with so much repetitive dribble (so they could reach 200 pages) that they sucked the life out of the good idea. This is a startling contrast - a simple idea kept simple. Brilliant!
Some of my favorites are:
· Trust your hunches. They're usually based on facts filed away just below the conscious level.
· Good instinct tells you what to do long before your head has figured it out. -- Michael Burke
· It is by logic that we prove, but by intuition that we discover. -- Henri Poincare
· Every time I've done something that doesn't feel right, it ends up not being right. -- Mario Cuomo
· A temporary inconvenience is easier to adjust to than a mistake you were warned about.
· Often you have to rely on intuition. -- Bill Gates
· Only intuition can save you from the most dangerous individual of them all, the articulate incompetent. -- Robert Bernstein
· It (the theory of relativity) came to me by intuition. -- Albert Einstein
· Why ask mere mortals for advice when you're guided by Sacred Wisdom?
· The high-minded man must care more for the truth than what people think. -- Aristotle
· What you know intellectually you have acquired from others. What you know intuitively, you receive from God.
· All truth passes through three stages: First, it is ridiculed; second, it is violently opposed; and third; it is accepted as self-evident. -- Arthur Schopenhauer
· The ego becomes threatened when change is introduced, but the Spirit gets excited. The ego rejects what disturbs its control. The Spirit thrills to what promises its freedom.
· Is it really so painful to have people dismiss your intuition? Apparently it isn't if you're Einstein, Aristotle, Edison, Copernicus, the Wright brothers, Henry Ford, or Bill Gates, to name a few creative geniuses. At least if people laugh at you you're in better company than those who are laughing!
· Ignoring your intuition is like driving on a highway in the dark of night with your headlights off - on purpose.
This is one of those rare books that I will give a gift, reread many times, and recommend to friends.

Inspiring intuition, April 3, 2008
This review is from: The Time Has Come...to Accept Your Intuitive Gifts! (Paperback)
This small book is a pocket-full of quick inspiration to remind us that true knowing lies within and can not be found elsewhere. Sonia prompts us to trust ourselves and she explains how. The book is a philosophy for living an inspired life and does not just reminding us of our intuition, but it educates us about it. This is a great gift and a must have for those who want to learn how to use their intuitive power.
