Funny, full of knowledge and endless subjective truths. Love his writing, the way he throws all rules overboard like tea.

Een nieuwe bijbel voor ambitieuze studenten en werkenden die zich willen ontpoppen tot hun beste zelf. Ontpopt ook mooi alle mythes rond ondernemen en werken in het algemeen. Inspirerend en leest vlot! Aanrader voor iedereen die een extra push nodig heeft om hun pad naar succes aan te leggen.

This book is a sales medium for these guys, not a book that learns you anything new. It's also written as if it is a big advertisement, with screaming capital words and braggadocio lingo. Would not recommend

I wish there was a function on Goodreads that says; recommend less like this. Because wow, I can't believe the overwhelming positive reviews.

Heal through prayer, with the “power of the Lord”, no references, boastful talk about wonders but no proof, talk about his church... This reeks like post war Guru bullshit to me. If any one wants this book, you can get mine. This is worthless to me.

Just like Power of Now, this is a catchy titled book filled with repetition and long winded unbacked stories by people who think they received godly powers from a god or spiritual being.

Disturbed by the amount of confident incorrectness in his statements. “Animals don't know negativity”, “Menstrual flows are the collective pain of all women in past history”, “all love is the love of God”, etc. He has no proof whatsoever, his arguments are based on overgeneralisations. Yet, he's extremely confident that what he's saying is the truth.

Making opinions sound objective by false dialogue is not the way to convince me to believe you.

While I've enjoyed the emphasis of Now theory, Eckhart's overconfident argumentations and scornful way of providing them gives me a know-it-all-guru and cult-like vibe. That doesn't sit well with me, because I've learned no truth can be 100% sure.

2,5/5, wouldn't recommend, but there are valuable insights about suffering and presence.
