Publisher's summary

What if peace of mind, beautiful feelings, little or no stress, wonderful, healthy relationships, and greater effectiveness were right at your fingertips and you held the key but didn't realize it or didn't know how to use it? That is what somebody should have told us!

This audiobook is about how we all have a state of perfect mental health and wisdom inside us that can only be covered up by our own thinking and how our use of our power of thought creates the "reality" we see, out of which we then think, feel, and act. Here are 10 simple but profound truths for living well, arising from three spiritual facts that once grasped or truly realized can transform one's life. This audiobook has the ability to spawn insights that change the lives of those who come to understand the simple yet profound wisdom contained in this audiobook. In fact, it already has.

This audiobook is the essence of self-help in that it points people inside themselves for all answers. It shows people how to access their own essence whenever they need to. It shows people how they create their experience of life moment to moment. The audiobook is authored in an easy-to-understand manner with many stories of how people's lives have changed. When we were growing up, nobody told us what this audiobook points to, but somebody should have told us! And it's never too late.

Valuable information presented in multiple story format

The concepts presented are invaluable. Learn true freedom. You are not a victim of anything outside of you…only your thinking about those things outside of you. Your perspective is the only path to joy. Sounds stupid when it is said like this….it is the life stories which help you to truly understand the concept. Great job Jack! It’s cool that you read it yourself…but a professional reader may have helped with performance…hence the 4 stars on that ;)

Life-changing!

I wish that everyone comes across this information! Absolutely transformational, and its simplicity makes it all even more powerful. Hopefully Jack Pransky will read more of his material. Thank you!
