Customer Reviews

Myth of Tomorrow

I found the writing style easy to follow and packed with information. Parts seemed to be "written for me". I enjoyed the thought provoking quotes found throughout the book. Highly recommended by me.

Life at the Next Level

As a social worker who has worked with cancer patients over the years, this book says it all. I've personally witnessed how many of these individuals experience the very changes Dr. Buffone describes so eloquently in his book. I've seen first hand the truth in his statement that "there is nothing that pushes us to live life more that the thought of losing it" and how this single thought can dramatically transform people's lives. I actually took the time to complete the awakening exercises he offers and found they helped me clear alot of distractions and laser in on the things in my life that really mattered. To my suprise, I've found myself using the Daily Whisper technique to motivate me to do small things I wouldn't normally do, like go out of my way to smile and say hello to people at work, call an old and dear friend for lunch, and take more time to have some fun with my daughter. If you really take the time to read it, this book will cause you to look deeply at yourself and your life and may even inspire you to change it. I plan to use it with my clients and give it as a gift to those I really care about. A great message that lends hope and courage to the reader!

A Real Wake-Up Call

A friend of mine had recommended this book... I found I couldn't put the book down. The awakening exercises in the book grabbed me... this book gave me a way to take that thought and turn it into a positive force in my daily life. The different chapters and exercises on loving ourselves, others, and life and finding meaning gave me ways to do things differently so my days seem richer. I find I'm not taking each day for granted like before. For that reason alone, the book has been a valuable read and I've heartily recommended to my friends and family.

Powerful Message

This book has proven to be the ultimate time management tool for getting focused on what's most important in my life. Every day I notice myself thinking about my goals and then speending better time with my family and doing more things that I enjoy instead of getting lost in work.

A MUST READ BOOK!

The Myth of Tomorrow has helped me turn my fear of dying into something positive. I now think everyday of what is most important, the love I share with others and what I stand for while I'm on this earth. It's helped me stay centered in this crazy, hectic world.
