I say “difficulties” in general because the author seeks to tackle a wide range of obstacles that are well known to us all.
Throughout the chapters of the book, Najjar lays out a step-by-step guide for reducing negative influences in our lives, discovering how to put things back into perspective, and then applying a lifestyle and mindset change built to maximize our experience through life. While many of the recommendations that the author offers to affect these positive life changes would be quite difficult for many people to follow, it is plain to see that the suggestions on offer would have a positive effect.
Without going into too much detail, Najjar’s approach to finding an awakened state by which to live lies with our ability and willingness to identify and weed out the poisons that drag us down.
According to Najjar, most of us spend our entire lives surrounding ourselves with sensory stimulation, and it may be that very stimulation that is causing most of our issues. Living in comfort zones with a limited outlook on life, becoming addicted to negative thoughts and feelings, and running on auto-pilot year after year, are just a few of the conditions caused by our current lifestyle and culture.
The author goes on to provide guidance on how we can learn to identify what types of sensory input are harmful and suggests that those harmful influences be removed. By doing so, the mind becomes free and that enables us to make judgements and decisions about our lives. From there, it becomes easier to see and maintain course on chosen paths without being deterred.
In my opinion, The YOU Beyond You is an inciteful read that will most likely have a positive effect on any reader that is ready and willing to make positive change in their lives. There are no magical formulae promised that will change your life overnight, which is good. Instead, the author offers a no-nonsense approach to viewing, modifying, and applying life knowledge to attain success. I think this work deserves five stars for providing a wealth of knowledge in a succinct format that anyone can benefit from. ...more "
