In May of 2000, I had someone mention this book and how the author says we are all perfect, whole and complete just as we are. Wow! I knew I had to read this book and what a gift it has been in my life. I also bought the tape and as I walked every day I would listen to it over and over. I was so amazed to become aware that I was responsible for everything that happened in my life...that I am first cause.
At the time, I was estranged from my two children and this book helped me to find the way back to them by taking responsibility for me and my actions....to give them unconditional love and to be there to support them in their choices.
I also credit this book with giving me the tools to forgive my ex-husband at the core level after eleven years and to release him from any further responsibility for me. I only want from others what is freely given with love. This book helped me to see that everyone I attract into my life is there to support me in reclaiming my power within myself.

There are so many other things I could share, but just know that this little book has helped me in my life more than any other book I've read. I was so ready to hear what Arnold had to say and I am so grateful to him for sharing so well and so simply what he has learned.

5.0 out of 5 stars A TRANSFORMATIVE EXPERIENCE, October 14, 1999

By 

Ed Parker (San Antonio, TX) - See all my reviews

This review is from: You Can Have It All (Paperback)

This book is one of the three most helpful books I have ever read and as a university librarian I have read several thousand during my 61 years. I have read it several times and I have also organized groups to help me apply the principles it contains. If some of the concepts seem strange or different, when you apply them in your life you will discover that they work in ways that can exceed your greatest expectations.

5.0 out of 5 stars You really can have it all, March 4, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: You Can Have It All (Paperback)

But only if you're willing to take total responsibility for the things that happen in your life. What Mr. Patent has done is simply extraordinary. He has shifted the blame from outside to inside. And once that is done, you are empowered. I have had this book for years now and I still find it as fresh and exciting and the first time. I've read and reread this book over the years. It is so simple it's scary. If you never buy another self-help book, buy this one. It's well worth the money and time. This is the original and the best.
