You can lead a horse to water ...

 “No one forces you to learn, you learn when you want to.” Richard Bach wrote that, and it is very true. How many times have you ever said to yourself (or heard it from others) “when will I (you) ever learn?!” We are constantly repeating the same mistakes. We see this ALL THE TIME in our relationships. Failure after failure – “I always seem to end up with the same kind of loser!” That is basically because no one forces us to learn, we learn when we want.
Has anyone ever returned to school after years, and found that their grades are much better? I see it time after time, because we return for a reason and we want to learn.
The thing about wanting to learn – it’s a choice. It’s not the sort of thing that just comes to us… O.K. it would appear that some people learn easier than other, but I’d argue you are talking academia. To some, academia is easier than for others, for various reasons; but what about those bookworms? Do you see them performing such great strides in their relationships? Show me a bookworm in any high school, and I’ll show you a wall-flower at the high school dance. There are few people who start off seemingly to have it all. They must make conscious choices to excel.
There is another saying of Richard Bach that applies here; “Argue for your limitations and sure enough they are yours!”

This book by Richard Hill has a lot of elements of our reality that we face today, but may not notice. It included relegion, philosophy, quantim physics, science, and psychology that Richard has integrated in his book.

Great, short, and to the point! wonderful book to read to inspire you and does not take years or months- almost instant! ~Maria~
Your book is a self learning project, if you listen to yourself and know what you want and not let other obstacles and concerns from others points of views get in your mind,> as the way I read your book, I love the fact that religion is a role play here, as I believe in the Faith of God, I can relate to a lot of ways you point out in your book, just we have to find our which way we choose that suits us in our own life, very Uplifting and encouraging, lots of Hope indeed .. if we listen to our inner strength, ~Annette
