Un bolsillo feliz lleno de dinero

No es solo cuestión de dinero.

La verdadera riqueza no consiste en tener mucho dinero en efectivo. Tampoco en llevar ropa de diseño. Ni en comprar un nuevo Mercedes. Ni en vivir en una mansión palaciega. La verdadera riqueza, afirma David Gikandi, tiene que ver con descubrir el valor dentro de uno mismo y de los demás. Se trata de llevar una vida consciente que incorpore —además de pensamientos, intenciones y metas establecidos y deliberados— la gratitud, la generosidad, la creencia en la abundancia y la experiencia de la alegría.

Basándose en los recientes descubrimientos de la física teórica y una lectura profunda de las obras más inspiradoras del pasado siglo, Gikandi presenta un fascinante sistema para la creación de riqueza personal; un nuevo enfoque que muestra a los lectores cómo generar abundancia ahorrando, dando, aportando a causas benéficas y sociales, y construyendo relaciones felices.

Out of the 50ish books I’ve read about manifestation and the law of attraction in my life, this is one of the better ones.

It does a really good job of describing quantum physics, the law of attraction, and manifesting techniques while still being inspiring and not repeating the exact material in other books.

Many LoA books read exactly the same, but this one felt a little bit different and unique. I’ve been studying the law of attraction since I was a kid, and I found myself thinking a few times as I read this, “wow, I never thought about it like that.”

This book also helped me have a break through involving quantum physics, time line hopping, and everything “already being yours” which is an aspect that I’ve always struggled to grasp.

I’m glad I finally read this one. It’s been on my radar for about 5 years and I read it at the perfect time.

Just 3 days after starting this book and having that break through, I manifested an unexpected raise, my husband got a raise and a bonus the next day, and all of our investments are up! So it’s helping a lot.

I’ll definitely be rereading this one so I can keep picking up new things and staying motivated and inspired. I know the next time I read it new things will jump out at me.

Just okay...

I loved the affirmations “I am wealth. I am abundance. I am joy.”

The rest of the book is a repetition of all the emotional denial books out there. ie, “Turn your cheek away from any emotion except joyful ones”. Like those more difficult emotions magically evaporate into thin air and bring wealth.

Spiritual bypass, such as this, sell. It’s time we wake up, folks, to our true emotions and give them real life. If we create a safe space to let these emotions move, that’s where true wealth lies.

Constantly claiming something is 'scientific' doesn't make it so! Really struggled with this book, but tried pushing through for book club. I couldn't get past the unnecessary references to God. Some broad ideas I could see value in: that we give money its value, that the only time is now, but overall I found the book to be a repetitive and circular read (don't allow negative thoughts, but if you do have negative thoughts don't resist them, but don't have them in the first place!!) without practical application. Some of the 'advice' seems like a brand of toxic positivity that I am not here for. Although stated in the book many times - 'what we resist persists', I will resist persisting with this book!

Repetetive, but consciously so - in the manner of affirmation. I 'went' with the entire contents and can accept and absorb all the quantum physics, until the author starts drivelling on about off-shore accounts - having spent most of the book talking about leap-of-faith quantum activity that defies such notions. It was not the best of its kind despite the great title!

Wow! What a great book...

If you are a fan of The Secret and now some law of attraction principles, you should definitely read this book!

Gikandi does a great job of relating how our thoughts and attitudes towards money, wealth and abundance directly contribute to the abundance in our lives.

Even though, law of attraction principles are based on quantum physics and this book relates to the reader in a way that makes law of attraction a bit easier to understand.

This book is great if you want to shift your money mindset into a more positive one. There is a lot of repetition and affirmations. It will challenge some of your negative beliefs.

However, there is a LOT of spiritual bypassing and victim-blaming here. This is basically the Law of Attraction. Some parts of it are great to put you in a more "abundant" mood. I found a lot of the beginning of the book empowering. By the end of the book, I got tired of all the repetition.

But it also encourages toxic positivity by suggesting that you repress your negative emotions and just "think positive." This is denial and causes more harm than good in my opinion.

I prefer something more embodied, holistic, and grounded.

Просто думай про мільйон і він у тебе буде. Або ні. Ну живи в моменті і не парся про це. Але постійно уявляй багате життя. Послухала цю книгу виключно через те що мені її порадили. Не раджу.

What started out as a journey to increase wealth consciousness became a journey of self-reflection that required me to look at my S/self as a whole rather than individually. This book touched on many great topics such as happiness, wealth consciousness, illusions of life, “All that there is” aka Oneness and many more. The author did a GREAT job at discussing the link and benefits of spirituality and quantum physics. By having a better understanding of the laws of wealth consciousness and manifestation, shifting into a higher state of consciousness has been easier. Like many other reviews I’ve posted, this book has to call to you as many topics are esoteric in nature and may be confusing to those who don’t have the understanding or consciousness to receive its message. Overall, great book!

It's all just magical thinking really, isn't it? I'm not sure how much of this trope is grounded in actual reality and not just Law Of Attraction/manifestation land.

This book is dense and sometimes hard to read, but it’s packed with great motivational points and law of attraction goodness. It takes a lost of brain power to get through, but every time I read some of this book my mind immediately starts focusing back in and getting it done. It’s a good book to have sitting around, and to pick up form time to time to remember why you’re doing it.

Recommended by one of my business mentors I initially assumed that by the title this was going to be another cheesy book about money and I couldn't be more wrong.

If you're familiar with reality transurfing concepts and quantum physics this book will be perfect reading for you since it touches on that as well without being so "woo". I've listened to the audiobook and found myself pausing to reflect, taking notes or going back a few seconds due to the number of golden nuggets in this book as well as positivity and a much better way to look at the world and your life.

I'll finish with one of my favourite parts from the book:

"One of the greatest laws is the law of giving. It is a phenomenal law. Give freely and happily. Always form a habit of giving cheerfully. Give first before you receive. Whatever energy you give will come back to you in an amazing way. You may give away your time, for example, and it comes back to you much later from an unexpected source in an unexpected form in a way that benefits you greatly. You cannot insist on a particular way and time it will come back to you, but you can be assured it will come back in the best way for you. Give. Give. Give. And do so cheerfully and freely. It is the energy behind the giving that matters so do not give grudgingly. The law of cause and effect guarantees that you shall receive plenty for what you give."

Will definitely get back to this book every now and then.

Несмотря на пугающее название книга оказалась со всем не про деньги. Она больше описывает устройство мира с точки зрения квантовой физики, где все вокруг едино и состоит из энергетических частиц, которые воплощаются в реальность буквально силой нашей мысли. Ни одна из рекомендаций или определений не вызвали у меня сопротивление. Наоборот, материал показался мне очень глубоким и изменил угол моего зрения. Есть над чем подумать. Рекомендую.

AWESOME book! I have so many notes and pages bookmarked to reference everyday. I really feel as though I have experienced growth in how I view money, wealth and finances. There's still work to be done, but I'm definitely on the right path.

Gikandi discusses focusing on our inner Being to manifest abundance into our lives. The book looks at money through a spiritual lens, which resonated with me.

Worth multiple reads to fully understand the concepts - quantum physics, law of attraction.

Great book helping you to rethink the laws of wealth and life. The author believes our inner world, concept of self and how we shape our thoughts shapes our external life and will also make us wealthy.

Focusing on quantum physics and spirituality, the book enables you to have a more conscious and positive concept of your inner self, with positive thinking and language of money. Helps you to realize how much we shape our thoughts around fear and lacking through concepts that are inherited by society and our upbringing.

After this book, one can at least approach money from a more conceptual and spiritual place, being more of a giver, and receiver, and changing the inner self via changing their thinking and language.

My only criticism would be the repetition, author repeats exact same sentences a few times throughout the book. Besides that, a must read.

LOVED THIS BOOK! This helped shift my mindset around money, abundance, wealth, etc. SO MUCH. I have noticed an immediate difference. Split into short paragraphs so it’s easy to incorporate into your day. There’s also questions in the back to reflect on- looking forward to doing some journaling on these!

This book blew my mind.
It is not what I thought was going to be.
It’s beyond money.
It’s about energy and life approach.
Highly recommend it!

Tried to keep an open mind, but this one lost me. Saying something is "scientific" doesn't mean there aren't hundreds of other studies saying otherwise, and I just don’t buy into the idea of manifesting money or thinking your way into abundance. If that’s your thing, this book might resonate, but it definitely wasn’t for me.

If only we could choose to pay just 10% in taxes. The assumptions and outdated advice in this book are beyond ridiculous.

Having watched the movie “The Secret” which first introduced me to the law of attraction, this book seemed to help make more sense of it all (while I didn’t align with everything taught in the book) but still was good because it certainly seemed to help explain law of attraction a bit better...

This book isn't your ordinary Finance book that focuses on 'To Do/ Action Plans', more so a focus on money consciousness and how it is intrinsically connected with our spiritual selves. For someone who is more accustomed to the typical finance book, this book may at first appear 'fluffy' as the Author jumps straight into the laws of Quantum Physics, speaks of The Secret and the Laws of Attraction. Although if you remain open minded and don't focus too hard to understand the science but try to just grasp the idea that is being relayed, you may find that you will enjoy the book for its different take on presenting finances.

The Author highlights what money is in an energetic sense rather than its physical properties and its functionality in our society. I enjoyed the Authors emphasis on emotions and feelings as an important component of creating our wealth and abundance desires.

I will end this review with one thing... "Money Loves Me, and I Love Money!"

This book is about the abstraction of money from the perspective of quantum physics. It is abstract but I still loved it! The author talks about the ways in which you can manifest wealth or push it away with thoughts, actions, deeds, and deeply held beliefs. I really believe that this book has made a difference in my life.

One caveat to fellow readers: I kept waiting for some kind of concrete prescription for meditation, manifestation, etc. That never really came. The meat and potatoes of value for this book is in the first third. But making my way through the end was still a delight of a reminder of all the ways we can see wealth unfold in our lives. Read it!
