The Power

A real gem of a book

I was inspired by the previous review to give a contrasting opinion!! I am a HUGE fan of the secret, so didn't hurry to buy this, as I thought it wouldn't offer anything new... but I was wrong!!! This book is fantastic! I feel inspired, and feel it is contributing to real change within me. I agree that her voice is a little grating (which I took to be her passion, as it IS read by the author), but even despite that I still love it, and will listen again for sure!

I even decided I wanted to buy the hardback book version, and went into town to purchase it... I locked my bike up in town, and noticed a second-hand shop I'd never noticed before. I popped in before going to the bookshop, and there, on top of a pile of books was a mint condition copy of the Power!! Law of Attraction at it's best.

I love this book

I think this works better on audio, as I find it almost like a mediation and put in frequently, almost on a loop as it makes me feel so uplifted and inspired. I have recommended it to others too and they have felt the same. Enjoy!

The Real Secret to Personal Power

I wasn't quite sure what to expect from this. After reading The Secret and feeling slightly underwhelmed by its rather wishy-washy content I was not sure that the follow up was going to add much more to my life.

I must say that I was so surprised that The Power is much more focussed on the real techniques for changing your life. It is beautifully produced and highly empowering. In truth this is the secret that the prequel never got anywhere near approaching by any of its contributors. If you enjoy Jerry and Esther Hicks then this is probably a more concise version of their teachings from a slightly different perspective.

I thoroughly recommend it!

Money has come easily to me and things in my life have turned completely 180degrees in the most phonominal way that I could have ever wanted or imagined.. I see the world in the brightest .. Beautiful and clearest way now .. My life is amazing xxxx I can't thank Rhonda Byrne enough for sharing this "secret / power" with me xxxx.

Incredibly Uplifting

The Secret took the world by storm, but many people found it very difficult to follow its principals. The Power distils these principals into easy practical steps that are easy to follow and for which I am very grateful. My only issue with Rhonda's vision of the world is what appears to be an uncritical view of consumerism rather than a more harmonious and balanced approach. She may also raise the hackles of some scientists with her ascertion about water having memory - this is not accepted by the majority although there is research which purports to support the idea. Thanks again Rhonda!

The most important book you will ever listen to

This is quite simply the best and most important book I have ever read. Rhonda Byrne follows on from her bestseller The Secret with this inspiring yet straightforward book, explaining the most powerful force in the universe and how you have it at your fingertips every moment of every day.
Through this book you can transform your life to enable you to be and live your true authentic self, to be, do or have whatever you want. Not just like that, you understand. Transforming your life means transforming the way you approach life and Rhonda explains this clearly and unequivocally.
If you are in any way into spiritual growth or self development, you will get this. If you have read, listened to or seen The Secret, you will get this. If you have a heart you will get this. One way or another you should get this.

Mixed Feelings

There is no doubt that there is a lot of good and inspiring information in this book and if you havent heard any of it before I am sure may come as a revelation, However, I wish that I had just purchased either the kindle or hard copy of this as the narration is really irritating to say the least, all the sound effects are totally rediculous and really over the top its all like an advertisment for the latest blockbuster movie and this takes away from the words which are over dramatised by the narrator and then repeated
I think this detracts from the book and is rather off putting which is a shame, I may just purchase the kindle version and cut to the chase as the audible version is just distracting. Probably really good in hard copy

love is the solution - not

it ma work for others but not for me. I tried my best to finish this audiobook but it is only bad. or in he language of the book, I didn't love enough. I see what the author wants to say. but for me was the book way to much when she said: people who doesn't have enough money don't love bought money. it their fault that the don't have enough money because the don't I've it enough. I would love to see how the author is staying a bit in Africa to see that love is not the solution for everything. especially regarding money.

love is a strong word

although I get the message and do apply positive thinking to my life, I think saying to love everything from shoes to cars is a bit full on , love is a strong work and shouldn't really be used for materialistic things. I like materialistic things and it's nice to have them but they don't bring true love or happiness.

Best Audiobook!!!

I absolutely loved this audiobook. I have the hard copy version too but the audio is simply amazing. It is the only one in my collection that I plan on listening to again straight away. She includes a lot of theatrics to add effect and it works great, and the music is inspiring and allows you to feel what Rhonda feels and is trying to portray.

I absolutely recommend. I only wish I could find another audiobook just as great. I would have loved to have the audiobook version of The Magic too but unfortunately I don't think it is available.
