The Attractor Factor, 2nd Edition: 5 Easy Steps to Create Wealth (or Anything Else) from the Inside Out (Unabridged) [Audio Download]

I wrote this review for my newsletter, if you are interested in subscribing to `Love Your Life' newsletter, please go to www.divinetime.com now and subscribe. In the meantime I hope you find my review helpful.

This wonderful book `The Attractor Factor' by Joe Vitale would not only be a book I recommend as fabulous, but also as an excellent gift for anyone you care about, it really is a must have in your book collection.

This book explains how we can attract into our lives the things which we focus on, which is also true of negative things. When we think about them we create them as manifestations in our reality. So Joe explains how we can change the don't wants, into do wants. For example Joe mentions our thoughts towards money or more specifically towards bills. By the very fact that you put your focus on them you create the thought `I don't want these bills'. So; it would be better to change this to a more positive statement such as `I have more than enough for everything I need'.

The book also explains how we sometimes sabotage, what we desire most and offers some great clearing exercises to change old limiting beliefs into new ones of abundance and fulfilment, allowing us to be open to receive what we do want.

There are many examples and stories in the book which clearly explain all the how to's. In a nutshell this is a wonderful read and will give you a new perspective on the way we have all been programmed to think, to the way that you choose. Unfortunately we are all surrounded by complaints and it is so much a part if daily life that we almost take it for granted that it's supposed to be that way.

I feel that anything I may say about Joe's work in general and especially this book would not give it the credence or enough gratitude for what you can learn and the realisations you will come upon as a result of reading it and completing the exercises for yourself.

The Attractor Factor

A great handbook for getting started

I have just read this book for the second time after about three years and it has meant a lot more to me on my second reading. When you are new to self-help books, the abundance of this book's references to other authors/gurus/methodologies/websites can be a little off-putting as can Joe's revelling in his own glories and apparently materialistic interests. It would be easy to wag the finger and say that he can't be "very spiritual" because of his emphasis on getting the most out of the material world. However this is the world in which we live and what comes across to me is that Joe wants the same for his reader too. His enthusiasm about his own and others' achievements can easily be misconstrued as an "ego trip" but throughout the book there is an emphasis on the need to "detach" from the need to control the situation which means detaching from the ego. Many of Joe's techniques apply not only to obtaining material possessions but to changing oneself at the core of the psyche but there is no apology about the fact that he wants to be master of each situation. There is a great emphasis on being CLEAR which, out of all the books that I have read, comes across far more strongly in this one. Joe has a background of poverty. He has had to empower himself so as to never again be its victim. Many American New Thought authors wrote during the Great Depression and have provided us with timeless treatises of how to turn poverty into wealth. The Attractor Factor provides the reader with a handbook of methodologies to get started on the road to self-empowerment. I strongly disagree with one reader who debunks the "Yagna" as being superficial or ineffective. What proof does the reader have that there is no evidence of their effectiveness? A close friend of mine had a yagna done on her behalf and within a short time came into a large sum of money. But this goes back to Joe's point that if you believe in its effectiveness then it will prove effective to you. Such is the hypothesis of quantum thinking which is what this book is about. Finally I would like to say how much I appreciate Joe's explanation of "The Script", a method for clearing subconscious blockages in the form of a prayer, devised by Karol Truman. I have copied it onto a card which I keep in my bag so that if ANYTHING negative comes into my awareness I can clear it there and then. If the book only accomplishes THIS result in my life, then it is worthy of the five stars which I am giving it.

Attractor Factor is a brilliant book for anyone interested in doing business in the most effective way. As an entrepreneur I find that you can either be really focused on money and worry about making it or you can make the conscious decision of being successful and enjoy your business. The only way you're ever truly happy with your business is when you're happy with yourself in it. The business has to be based on ethics, spirituality and common sense. This is exactly where Dr. Vitale's book is so good for your business. It's a straight forward guide for business people who want to be brilliant! I could not recommend it more.
