Choices and Illusions by Eldon Taylor

Book Review

I was recently contacted to be a part of a Blog Tour by publishers Hay House. It was to be for a book called "Choices and Illusions: How Did I Get Where I Am, and How do I Get Where I Want to Be" by Eldon Taylor. This previously published book is being re-released with updates.

Here is where I have to admit that up until being recently contacted by Hay House I had never heard of Eldon Taylor. I have read and have a personal library of many, many self-help style books (way too many according to my wife!) - but nothing ever by Eldon Taylor. So, it was going to be an adventure for me to find out what he had to say.

All I can say now after reading the book - poor fool me. I have been missing out. Eldon Taylor writes well in a conversational way that manages to keep the reader interested in the topic at hand. The pages speed by with many "Ah-Ha" moments of personal revelation. Eldon is not afraid to let us into his own personal life in a most honest style.

The book is about our minds and who owns them - "Us" or "Them". Most of us would say "Us". But, do we? The illusion is that we think we do. Choices - are we actually making any that we can truly say are our own? Subliminal messages and advertising have been affecting our decisions for a long time.

Eldon discusses these topics and others, and how we can begin to take back control of our own thinking and therefore make responsible choices. One of the ways to do this is by using subliminal affirmations. This is the core of a self-help therapy that Eldon has perfected over a 25 year period enabling anyone to improve their mind and lifestyle.

I found this book to be a most enjoyable and informative read. Well done. Now that I have found out who Eldon Taylor is I like him and the way he thinks a great deal. The world is all the more richer for his presence.
