The Four Agreements Audio Book. 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I had long read (several times) the book by the time I picked the audiobook from a local store, more than out of curiosity than anything else as I've always felt than nothing beats reading the book. I was very very surprised with the quality of the reader they used for this.

I've been using it before I fall asleep and the voice transports me to another place and it is almost as if I was listening to ancient teachings spoken by an elder, wise and old. As it is unabridged, I fully recommend this to anybody who wants to take the teachings found on the book to the next level.

Editorial Review:

In The Four Agreements, don Miguel Ruiz reveals the source of self-limiting agreements that rob people of joy and create needless suffering. Based on ancient Toltec wisdom, the Four Agreements offer a powerful code of conduct that can rapidly transform anyone’s life to a new experience of freedom, true happiness, and love. These agreements are deceptively simple: Be impeccable with your word (speak with integrity; say only what you mean); Don’t take anything personally (nothing others do is because of you); Don’t make assumptions (find the courage to ask questions and express what you really want); Always do your best (and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse, and regret). Peter Coyote’s resonant reading emphasizes the power in these remarkable tenets.

I bought this book many years ago when our youngest who is now 19 was 3 or 4. It is the typical modern psycho-babble about trying to understand your kids etc. Useless trash. You are much better off going with John Rosemond's "Six Point Plan to Raising Happy Healthy Children". Much more effective tools and practical.
We have 7 children and Rosemond's books were very helpful. If I would have tried to follow the advise in this book, I would have had a nervous breakdown by now.

Editorial Review:

From the Authors of the #1 Bestselling YOU: On A Diet and YOU: On a Walk

Wouldn't you like to know how to prevent your body from aging badly? Most of us believe that at age 40 or so, we begin the slow and steady decline of our minds and bodies. According to Dr. Roizen and Dr. Oz, that's a mistake. Aging isn't a decline in our systems. It's actually very purposeful. The very systems and biological processes that age us are designed to help us when we're a little bit younger. Our role is to learn how those systems function so we can reprogram them to work the way they did when we were younger. Your goal should be: die young at any age. That means you live a high quality of life (with everything from working joints to working genitals) until the day you die.

At the core of YOU: Staying Young are the Major Agers -- 14 biological processes that control your rate of aging. Doctors Roizen and Oz explain the principles of longevity and many of the causes of aging and how to fight their effects. Also included in a printable PDF file is a 14-day plan to help you integrate important processes into your daily life in order to make staying young routine.

YOU: Staying Young is filled with signature YOU Tools, including YOU tips and memorable metaphors to bring the science alive and help you understand the most fascinating machine ever created: the human body.

Not the best I've read 2 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

I love Suze Orman and as a 26 year old woman I was more that excited about learning how to control my own destiny by learning all I could about my money. The problem....I would like to enjoy it before I retire. Suze should change all the names of her books to. " Suffer now, Retire rich part 1, 2, 3 and 4" because that's the philosphy of her books. I am more interested in learning techniques that can produce results in 3-5 years. 35 years is too long to reap the harvest. This book has it's place but it didn't help me much.

Editorial Review:

Why is it that women, who are so competent in all other areas of their lives, cannot find the same competence when it comes to matters of money?

Suze Orman investigates the complicated, dysfunctional relationship women have with money in this groundbreaking new book. With her signature mix of insight, compassion, and soul-deep recognition, she equips women with the financial knowledge and emotional awareness to overcome the blocks that have kept them from making more out of the money they make. At the center of the book is The Save Yourself Plan—a streamlined, five-month program that delivers genuine long-term financial security. But what’s at stake is far bigger than money itself: It’s about every woman’s sense of who she is and what she deserves, and why it all begins with the decision to save yourself.

The Year of Living Biblically: One Man's Humble Quest to Follow the Bible as Literally as Possible

Editorial Review:

The bestselling author of The Know-It-All takes on history's most influential book.

Raised in a secular family but increasingly interested in the relevance of faith in our modern world, A.J. Jacobs decides to dive in headfirst and attempt to obey the Bible as literally as possible for one full year. He vows to follow the Ten Commandments. To be fruitful and multiply. To love his neighbor. But also, to obey the hundreds of less-publicized rules: to avoid wearing clothes made of mixed fibers. To grow his beard. To stone adulterers.

The resulting spiritual journey is at once funny and profound, reverent and irreverent, personal and universal. Jacobs also embeds himself in a cross-section of communities that take the Bible literally, including the Amish and the Hasidim. He discovers ancient Biblical wisdom of startling relevance. And he wrestles with seemingly archaic rules that baffle the 21st-century brain.

Jacobs's extraordinary undertaking yields unexpected epiphanies and challenges. Sure to charm listeners both secular and religious, The Year of Living Biblically is part Cliffs-Notes to the Bible, part memoir, and part look into worlds unimaginable. Thou shalt not be able to stop listening.

The best book ever written for addictive behaviors! 5 out of 5 stars.
6 of 8 people found this review helpful.

You know, I've never really swallowed the idea that alcoholism is a 'dis-ease' and that someone struggling with addiction is 'powerless' over anything...my husband has been battling addiction for 10 years and I've always believed that there was an underlying cause that made him want to 'medicate' himself but had never found any major supporter of the idea until this book was released. It's like an AH-HA moment for those of us that believe in our own power. I've fought for years with my husband's fellow 'recovering addicts'; some of which have been sober for 15 years, that it's a choice, not an illness. When someone offers you that drug, bottle of beer, or whatever tool you've used, you have the choice to say 'yes, I'll take it' or 'no, thank you.' To me it's always been that simple...so you are NOT powerless...you HAVE the power to say yes or no. This book opened up the realm of self power to let me (and my husband) take back the responsibility for his actions...which, in itself, has begun the healing process; he's no longer a 'victim' of a dis-ease. We can't afford a place like Passages, nor can we afford all of the healers that they recommend; however, the mind is the MOST powerful of all healers and we have the power to heal ourselves once our plane of thinking has been opened. WE WILL SUCCEED!

I highly recommend this book to ANYONE that has been to AA but does not feel confident with its "give it to God" concept of lack of self-control; for you are the ones that 'know' deep down inside that there's more to this than a diagnosis of a dis-ease. READ THIS BOOK! Then continue on your path to soul search and find that hidden hurt that's taken you to this place. Set yourself free.


I am truly grateful to these two men for writing and publishing this book. They are true angels.

Editorial Review:

The Passages recovery method offers hope with an entirely different approach from those of other treatments: at Passages, alcohol and drugs are never the problem, but the solutions chosen by alcoholics and addicts to cope with underlying conditions. This is a practical, informed stepbystep protocol for uncovering and treating the core causes of alcoholism and addiction. Once the real problems are uncovered and treated, the substance abuse disappears. Listeners will learn how to select a competent physician to support recovery, and what to avoid when someone needs help with addiction or alcoholism. Traditional recovery centers have a relapse rate of over 90%. Passages, on the other hand, has an 84% success rate. Passages' holistic method offers total recovery from addiction and shows how to heal the underlying causes of addiction, prevent relapse and end suffering.

Editorial Review:

Every day, we make decisions on topics ranging from personal investments to schools for our children to the meals we eat to the causes we champion. Unfortunately, we often choose poorly. The reason, the authors explain, is that, being human, we all are susceptible to various biases that can lead us to blunder. Our mistakes make us poorer and less healthy; we often make bad decisions involving education, personal finance, health care, mortgages and credit cards, the family, and even the planet itself.

Thaler and Sunstein invite the listener to enter an alternative world, one that takes our humanness as a given. They show that by knowing how people think, we can design choice environments that make it easier for people to choose what is best for themselves, their families, and their society. Using colorful examples from the most important aspects of life, Thaler and Sunstein demonstrate how thoughtful "choice architecture" can be established to nudge us in beneficial directions without restricting freedom of choice. Nudge offers a unique new take-from neither the left nor the right-on many hot-button issues, for individuals and governments alike. This is one of the most engaging and provocative audio books to come along in many years.

Editorial Review:

Based on a Gallup study of over two million people who have excelled in their careers, NOW, DISCOVER YOUR STRENGTHS uses a revolutionary programme to help readers discover their distinct talents and strengths. The product of a twenty-five year, multi-million pound effort to identify the most prevalent human talents, the StrengthsFinder programme introduces thirty-four talents or "themes" and reveals how they can best be translated into personal and career success. Each copy of the CD contains a unique pin number that gives the reader access to the StrengthsFinder Profile, a Web-based interview that analyses people's instinctive reactions and immediately presents them with their five most dominant strengths. Once listeners know which of the thirty-four talent themes dominates their personality, they can make practical applications at three levels: as an individual, as a manager and within an organisation. Readers learn what kind of environments will allow them to flourish; how managers can better cultivate their employers' talents; and how almost all organisations inhibit the talents of their people and need to change.

This book uses easy to understand professional coaching techniques with clear and fool proof results. By tapping into the "hard wired" programs in human behavior positive results appear to be effortless. This IS how to communicate directly to the survival and reproductive instincts that is in every species on the planet. A "mind game" free experience using appearent science of the mind techniques usually only available to a few Neuro-linguistic programmers, therapist, and other human behavior professional. Well written, easy to understand, even more than that this book turns "average frustrated chumps" "just friends" and "nice guys" into very effective and highly sought after "MEN of Higher Value" no matter how much they make or what they do for work. Be your best self, order this book right now... be the man you have been jealous of... be the man women chase, NOW!
