About this audiobook
THE RECORD-BREAKING, #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER – OVER 35 MILLION COPIES SOLD
The first book by Wayne Dyer, author of the multimillion-copy bestseller Pulling Your Own Strings and national bestsellers There’s a Spiritual Solution to Every Problem and Wisdom of the Ages, a positive and practical guide to breaking free from the trap of negative thinking and enjoying life to the fullest.
If you're plagued by guilt or worry and find yourself unwittingly falling into the same old self-destructive patterns, then you have ""erroneous zones"" – whole facets of your approach to life that act as barriers to your success and happiness.
Perhaps you believe that you have no control over your feelings and reactions – Dyer shows how you can take charge of yourself and manage how much you will let difficult times and people affect you. Or maybe you spend more time worrying what others think than working on what you want and need – Dyer points the way to true self-reliance. From self-image problems to over-dependence on others, Dyer gives you the tools you need to break free from negative thinking and enjoy life to the fullest.

What our readers think
Readers find this title to be a quick and impactful listen, filled with actionable advice and wisdom. They appreciate the concise overview of errors in thinking and the uplifting message of elevating the heart and thoughts. The calming voice of the author adds to the experience. Some reviewers mention that the audio quality may have intermittent feedback, but overall, the book is highly recommended for anyone seeking personal growth and a new perspective on life.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5The audiobook is only an hour and a half, because it's abridged, but it's packed full of helpful information. Here are my favorite points:
We have control of our feelings. We have the choice of how we process other people's opinion. Esteem lies within you, not in other people. That's why it's called self-esteem.
"As you think, so shall you be."
"You are what you think about all day long."
If you put a label on yourself such as "I am..." and your label becomes your reality, then you're acting on that and processing that as who you are. It's a neurosis trap. It's self-defeating. These "I am" statements are a choice. You can choose the kind of personality you're going to have. It's not something you're stuck with. If you say "I'm disorganized," it's because you choose to be. You can be any way that you want to be.
You can do anything!
Don't let an old person move into your body.
Guilt is the immobilization of living in the past. It's very powerful and gets people to conform. Ask yourself, "Instead of feeling guilty now, what could I be doing? What am I avoiding?" Teach people that guilt no longer applies.
Worry immobilizes you in the present about the future. Again, what could you be doing now if you didn't worry?
Ask yourself, "Does it immobilize me in the present?" If so, then get rid of it.
When the student is ready, the teacher appears. For example, you may have a book on your shelf at home for decades before you actually read it and realize how much valuable information it contained.
Security is an illusion.
You have to make the decision to change. It's a fear of moving into new territory that keeps you where you are and the fear is only in your mind. A new, healthy, fulfilling, exciting and exquisite life is only a thought away.
Don't keep looking for fairness, justice or for everything being exactly equal. Stop comparing yourself to others and keep your nose out of other people's garden.
If you want to get ahead in life and all that you know you can make of it, then you have to say to yourself, "Why am I choosing not to do that?"
What you think about expands. If you argue for limitations in your life, that's what you'll get. If you argue for happiness, that's what you'll get.
Anything you can visualize you can act upon.
You won't be punished for your anger, you'll be punished by your anger. When you're angry, you're carrying around the seeds of your destruction and the destruction of others. It's not the act that makes you angry. It's how you process the act that does.
I highly recommend this book to anyone looking to read something inspiring that helps you to change your mindset.2 people found this helpful

Love to all that read this xxxxxx - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Amazing, so helpful and honestly life changing. I have taken on a complete new perspective on everything. I cannot wait to apply the things that I have learned. There is a real rawness to the words that he speaks that really help deliver the message. Separately, I was very taken aback when he said the ‘No word. I know he was just listing it amongst other labels but I just had to pause and process for a minute.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Love the Sound of his calming voice and the truth and wisdom he is passing to the people. I feel blessed to discover his books. When the student is ready the teacher will come. He is my teacher. Thank you
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Immense wisdom. Wayne provides sage advice. Pity its such a short audiobook.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Love this guy - is something wrong with the audio though? I keep getting intermittent feedback, poor sound playback.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A concise overview of the errors in thinking that keep us from enjoying an abundant soul satisfying life!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I bought this book when it first came out. Enjoyed reading it again.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Beautifully written and narrated ❤️. Thank you Dr Wayne. X
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Straightforward and actionable advice put kindly. There’s a good chance I’ll revisit this book for the rest of my life. (This audiobook isn’t a verbatim rehearsal of the original, by the way. I’m sure he goes over everything but it’s more informal and he’s not reading from a script. I might look for the original published version too, because I sometimes reading helpful things put differently helps them land even after the original doesn’t land anymore. Thanks for this, my author guy. Thanks for putting it out there. You’re a good human.)
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I love it. Thank you for making this available to us.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I've read probably about a dozen similar "self-help" books, and none made more rational yet simple and human sense to me than this. It will make you ask, "how have I been living like this my whole life? "
