Eldon Taylor

Eldon Taylor shares research and stories with us proving that we have the illusion of choice, when in fact our subconscious mind has already decided for us. Our thought processes, decisions, and behaviors are often driven by biases and beliefs of which we might be completely unaware. To complicate matters, we are all too easily influenced by subliminal messages within advertising that we are besieged with each and every day. Consequently, the inner voice directing us might not be completely our own.

This book has been out awhile, so the research presented is no longer new. Even so, the author presents the studies and information in an intelligent, thoughtful way, showing us what all of this means to us as individuals and as societies.

Taylor's writing style is conversational and easy to follow. He shares stories along the way, adding a personal touch and giving readers a better understanding of the information discussed. He offers tips on how to recognize and change the negatives within our inner voice, so that we can work toward positive change and take better control of our lives.

My one quibble with the book is with the final chapter, entitled 'Change'. This chapter reads like a sales pitch for Taylor's InnerTalk program. The entire chapter is made up of testimonials from people who have used his InnerTalk products, touting them with glowing reviews. I found this heavy-handed sales pitch irritating. I just don't think a chapter of testimonials on the author's products is appropriate within a book.

Aside from that last chapter, this book is an interesting read, reminding us we are only confined by the limits we place upon ourselves.

Combined with audio recordings that lead you through the process of self-hypnosis, it is a book that is sure to become a reference on many readers’ bookshelves. All in all, an enjoyable and thought provoking read.… (altro)

Choices and Illusions
How Did I Get Where I am, and How Do I Get Where I want to Be?
by Eldon Taylor

I found this 189 page self help book fascinating because it took me in so many directions. First i was able to see the thinking patters that were causing blocks in my life, then I was able to hear personal stories that gave me even more of a clearer picture when it came to old and new ways of seeing things.

Through illustrations, charts and graphs the author shows us how illusion can work in our lives on many different levels, including subliminal. I was amazed at how different things can influence the course of my life. The format was well presented and quite easy to follow and I would recommend this reflective teacher to anyone who wants a better picture of how to gain an upper hand in your own life. Thanks, Eldon I learned a lot.

Love & Light,
