Many books written in the similar genre and topic with this book. The content was more or less. I read this book because of the author's background and hope there are something new here.
One could say there’s emphasis on the power of the mind described in this book, but it points more towards the power of perception. This simple guide with amazing quotes could help steer one’s perspective, with an open mind. Re-read worthy.
