“The most valuable thing that this book taught me, and is still continuing to teach me as I re-read and re-read it, is that it is possible to feel good about myself at all times, and in every situation in my life, and much more importantly, that is possible to change how I feel at any moment. Admittedly, it is not something that I'm used to doing, and sometimes it really takes an immense amount of concentration, but I have had the experience of changing sadness into joy as a result of what I've learned from this book. The way we feel about ourselves is a habit that we develop as we move through our lives, and it's a damned hard habit to break, but it is possible to have control over our feelings. It is possible to feel good even when a relationship is ending, or when you're experiencing financial challenges. I've done it!! It is possible to look at the pain that we sometimes experience in life as healing rather than as debilitating. I realized as I read AAIIG for the first time how I really felt about myself, and how I really felt about the life I was living, and the life around me.

It is very easy, if we live only by our 5 senses, to arrive at the conclusion that life is unfair, or that life is a struggle. What Abraham and the Hickses are suggesting is that most, if not all, of our opinions about life are learned. Think about it for a minute. If you're born into a rich family, you grow up thinking about money, and yourself in relation to money, in a totally different way than if you're born into a poor family. If you're born into a loving home, the same principle applies. Abraham is suggesting that it is possible that we all come into this world in joy, desiring to live a joyful life, but that that initial spark is eroded by our childhood and early life experiences.

Abraham also suggests that we make decisions about life based on our experiences. How is it that two children born into the same household can grow to live two completely different lives? It must be because one of them made different decisions than the other one, despite the fact of having similiar childhood experiences. Ultimately, we are all individuals making individual decisions about the life, and that is a very, very valuable lesson ... at least, for me it was truly eye-opening.

Even if you are an absolute literalist who does not believe in life before birth or life after death, you can still benefit from the exercises at the end of the book. None of us knows for sure whether anything beyond the evidence of our senses is true or not. Some of us follow only the evidence of what we can see, and taste, and measure. There are others of us who supplement our senses with intuition. My intuition guides me to the possibility that there is more to life than we can sense immediately, but even if you think that this is a crock, read the book once all the way through and then decide. Take note of the things that you might disagree with and keep on reading. You might be surprised that you agree with what is being presented far more than you disagree with it.”

“Read at the right time, especially when on a spiritual path, I think this could be one of those life changing or at least very pivotal books to read. It's very simply set out and easy to comprehend which is great for those who are only just learning or discovering law of attraction. As for people who already know about law of attraction I think it's great for a reminder and for fine tuning what you know. I did find it to be slightly repetitive but I feel that given the subject and taking into consideration how much we are all used to a certain perspective it's probably for the best as it drums it in more helping to push past any resistance and keeping a open mind. ”
