Daily Affirmations For Forgiving & Moving On

by Tian Dayton

What does it cost us in terms of happiness and well-being to hang onto blame and hurt?

There comes a point in recovery when we need to move past our pain, resentment and grief and recognize which attitudes will help us through our lives and which need to be let go of. Forgiving and Moving On assists the emerging self, offering hope, strength and inspiration along the way

Actually, this is a good book, maybe it should desire 4 stars in some case.
- CLEAR. Every stories have title then explain and finish with a quote.
- it short and very easy to understand not challenge the reader to think, just feel and learn.
- Give reader deep knowledge about life and way to fulfill life.
Last but not least, you should read it slowly like one or two stories per day and apply it into your real life.
However, I've done it so fast (cuz it short) and almost not have enough time to apply it.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for some one who feel sad or on the way to fining happiness.

Câu nói mà bản thân mình thấy ấn tượng nhất khi đọc cuốn sách này: “ Người ngừng học sẽ trở nên già cỗi bất kể họ đang ở tuổi hai mươi hay tám mươi. Ngược lại, bất cứ ai không ngừng học hỏi đều sẽ giữ được sự trẻ trung. Và điều tuyệt vời nhất trong cuộc đời mỗi người là duy trì sự tươi trẻ trong suy nghĩ” _Henry Ford

Self-help book that talks more about daily affirmations and helps one know how to deal with resentment, rage, and letting go of what’s not necessary to hold on in life.If it can be read more often to help with healing,and recovery process it’s a good book.

Overall Excellent

I will keep reading this daily probably for as long as I can. Forging begins with ones self and that for me is a daily need, if I have success there i can forgive others or see better the overall bigger picture.

Dailiy Affirmations for Forgiving and Moving On: Powerful Inspiration for Personal Change" by Tian Dayton, Ph.D. is a daybook which is in a handy small format and includes an inspirational affirmation for each day of the year. Although this book was written with a 12 step world view in mind, it is not overbearing on the topic and actually very rarely mentions the 12 steps overtly so if that is not an area of interest for you, don't let it prevent you from taking advantage of this deceptively small book which contains large amounts of wisdom.

I also appreciate that the book doesn't shy away from uncomfortable topics, such as challenging old beliefs, and the difficulty of transforming, changing, and letting go.

I highly recommend this book as both a self-help book and; in it's way, a guide which feels almost alike a friend walking beside you in your life journey.

I really believe in affirmations- I need a few minutes every day to get my head on straight. I've owned a million of these books- but this one's my favorite. For every day of the year, there is a detailed description of the day's thought or commitment- sometimes it is about counting blessings, assertiveness, taking care of oneself, dealing with hurt or anxiety, or your debt to the world to be the best citizen, friend, daughter, partner you can be. There is also a quote that goes along with the days focus.
Try it- it may change your life!
I've been through the entire book twice- had it for two years- and I always seem to get the message I need at the right time.

This book has helped me out tremendously! You are supposed to read a page for each day of the month but the positive advice is just too good to wait each day. This is a book that I will probably read once a week so I can continually recognize my positive attitude and stregnths.

I've had this book since I was a teen, like 19 years ago. It's worn, tore & used well now. I still read and use it. Great affirmations book.
