Book summary

In this classic self-help guide, bestselling author Stuart Wilde presents pithy instructions for living. He backs these up with commentary, some of which is metaphysical/philosophical and some anecdotal. Since Wilde did not always lead an exemplary life, these are entertaining and and instructive. He provides an introduction to how affirmations work, and groups them in chapters such as "Night Affirmations," "Affirmations of Heart or Feeling," and "Affirmations of Essence or Action." Together, the affirmations suggest, in his words, "a battle plan" to "take back control of your life."
