Captivating and Enlightening

Sydney Banks in my mind is whom all great coaches and leaders should seek to study. The wisdom is timeless and thought provoking. The delivery was exceptional and held me captive.

3 Principles

This is a great look at the 3 principles by the guy who popularized it. Someone mentioned that this book was religious. The only religious parts I heard in the book was when other characters tried to compare religion to the 3ps. Yes the book addresses universal consciousness, because it's one of the 3ps. I enjoyed the book except for the fact that there was only one narrator playing each character. Not a problem really, I just don't listen/read fiction books. If you enjoy the 3ps or want to explore it this is great purchase. There are less than 10 or so books on audible about the 3ps, which I have most.

Do you want to explore something new? Dive deeper and discover more about yourself? Increase your wisdom and intuitive knowledge? If so then I'd recommend it.
