Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Amazing book
This audiobook was very eye-opening for me. Learning about the different personality types that often manipulate people to get personal gain was empowering. I could see people in my life that gaslight, manipulate and control to get what they want. The author does a great job on explaining how to communicate and set boundaries with these types of people. This has always been hard for me but with the steps given in this book I feel like I can start recognizing these negative patterns in people easier and set my boundaries better. I am also glad it covers how to teach my kids. Very empowering and eye opening.

Learn how to protect yourself from manipulation
This author does such a great job of explaining the different personality types that lend themselves to attempting to manipulate people for their own benefit (such as narcissists), and discusses the different methods they use (such as gaslighting). I thought this was really helpful because I had never heard of some of the personality types discussed, and when you hear all of the different types of manipulation that can be used, you start to recognize those patterns from past experiences with other people. He goes into great detail about how to interact and communicate with these individuals while still protecting your boundaries and peace. One thing I really appreciated about this audiobook is that he also discusses how to educate your children to recognize these patterns, and also how to help a friend if they are dealing with manipulative behavior. There is also a lot of great information about how to recover if you have been the victim of this psychological abuse. I think this is a great audiobook for everyone to listen to.

This audiobook has made a positive impact on my nights. I've struggling with insomnia since I was young and I'm typically disillusioned to generic advice, However, this audiobook provided practical, personalized strategies that are starting to make a difference. The tailored CBT-I techniques and mindfulness practices help me relax, and I'm addressing the lifestyle factors that impact my sleep. It’s refreshing to find a guide that acknowledges my unique struggle. I’m finally sleeping better and waking up ready for the day!
