The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment

“All negativity is caused by an accumulation of psychological time and denial of the present. Unease, anxiety, tension, stress, worry - all forms of fear - are caused by too much future, and not enough presence. Guilt, regret, resentment, grievances, sadness, bitterness, and all forms of non-forgiveness are caused by too much past, and not enough presence.”
“If your mind carries a heavy burden of past, you will experience more of the same. The past perpetuates itself through lack of presence. The quality of your consciousness at this moment is what shapes the future.”
Rating: 4.5/5

"I've always been on the side of "once you've read one self-help book, you've read them all" but after reading multiple books in this genre, I learned that it helps to reinforce what you've learned. It's a refreshing reminder to stay on track, remain focused on a specific goal and only worrying about what you can control. Conan led me here after a recent passing of his dear friend Garry Shandling."
