In my opinion, it came in a yellow and childish way, and this, according to the ideology of my own book, means that I have a kind of yellowness and childishness within me.

It seems that this yellowness and childishness might be influencing my perspective and actions. Maybe it's a part of my nature that I need to be aware of and perhaps work on.

On one hand, it could bring a certain charm and simplicity, but on the other hand, it might also lead to some naivety or immaturity in certain situations.

I wonder if others notice this aspect of me as well. It makes me think about how I can better understand and manage these traits to become a more well-rounded and mature person.

Fare enough.

The book is written based on Jung's theory and is very similar to self-help books such as the Law of Attraction and The Secret. In my opinion, such books can be useful if the reader filters the content intelligently. Otherwise, there is no difference from yellow books!!

There are some places where I completely do not accept the words of the book... For example, if we encounter an unknown time with a person, actually this problem comes back to us and we ourselves are the unknown time!

The most important point that I took away and the main goal of the book is that any problem we have is actually within ourselves!! And it has no connection with external factors

The shadowy existence veils that part of our personality which tightly binds our relationships, drains our spirit, and hinders the realization of our dreams. Jung names this part the shadow. The shadow encompasses all those personal traits that we strive to hide or deny. Instead of suppressing our shadows, we should look at, expose, and accept those aspects that we are afraid of. When we make peace with our shadow, there is no longer a need to pretend to be someone else or prove that we are worthy of existence. There is no longer a need to flee in fear. To be free and independent, one must be able to do so, and achieving this crucial goal necessitates that we refrain from self-judgment. When we put ourselves on trial, we also pre-judge ourselves in relation to others, and what we do to others, we do to ourselves. The world is a mirror for reflecting our inner selves. When we can accept and forgive ourselves, we can also accept and forgive others.

If you don't know what you want, don't be afraid. Just commit to living to the best of your ability. Live in the present moment so that the unique guidance of your being can show you the way. Commitment leads you to the places you should go, the books you should read, and the people who will teach and help you. There is an old adage with this meaning: when the student is ready, the teacher will appear.

I can say that there is a treasure trove in the entire text of this book. Something that I had been looking for years until my hatred towards the people around me decreased a little and finally I understood that I am projecting myself onto those people. And by accepting that part within me that I see in different people and that causes inner pain to me, I finally reach a balance. And how much the words of Debbie Ford reminded me of Yin and Yang. Everything in this world has two faces, good and bad, weak and strong, and so on, which cannot be separated from each other and must be accepted together so that their blessings can be presented to us. And accepting the shadows of mine that have fallen on the faces of those around me finally puts the heavy burden of my existence on the ground and I reach peace. And reaching it will continue because I and all of us have many shadows beside the bright side of our existence. So how good it is that we can accept them and reach a special blessing and a near-example of peace and grow. It was one of the best books in the field of self-improvement that I recommend everyone to read it and I hope that in our personal lives, we all implement each of its guides and methods very well.

For me, I suppress most of my emotions and don't express them. I had good and effective conversations, but since I'm not the kind of person who attaches great importance to advice and consultations and won't make up my mind to change until I myself decide, positive and energetic views have no effect on me. I can't say that I really enjoyed it or felt good about myself. Mostly, what Eckhart Tolle's books taught me didn't stick, and the exercises at the end of each chapter weren't interesting to me either.

It seems that I'm in a bit of a rut when it comes to personal growth and self-discovery. Maybe I need to find a different approach or mindset to break free from this cycle. I know that change doesn't happen overnight, but I also don't want to remain stagnant.

I'll keep reflecting on my experiences and try to figure out what I can do to make a positive change in my life. After all, everyone has the potential to grow and evolve, and I'm determined to tap into that potential and become the best version of myself.

I was truly uncertain about what to anticipate from this book. I initially thought it might be too complex for me to understand, but to my surprise, it deeply resonated with me.

Debbie Ford essentially asserts that within each of us lies a spectrum of qualities, both good and bad. This is what defines us as human beings. Once we are able to accept this fundamental truth, we can have an encounter with the Divine. We achieve this by taking responsibility for our actions and learning how to transform our negative characteristics into forces for good. I had never considered approaching it in this way before, but by viewing my negative traits from this perspective, I feel as though I have reached a greater level of self-acceptance. She also emphasizes that we must embrace the wonderful qualities that we possess.

After each chapter, there are exercises. I highly encourage you to engage in them. I didn't complete all of them at the time because it wasn't practical, but I have since revisited them as I have reflected on some of the questions and ideas presented. It was far more intense than I had initially expected.

This is an extremely good book for those who might be feeling as if they have failed in some aspect of their lives and are struggling to figure out how to break free from their rut. The book is well-written and maintains the theme of examining all aspects of oneself throughout.

It offers valuable insights and practical exercises that can help readers gain a deeper understanding of themselves and make positive changes in their lives. Whether you are seeking personal growth or simply looking for a thought-provoking read, this book is definitely worth checking out.

One of the concerns about Jung's theory is that it rides on a targeted theory throughout pseudoscience and the use of complex physical concepts (holography - all writing); devouring pseudoscience on the Jungian shadow complex.


The book, similar to its contemporaries - the law of attraction and the set of secret books - is a general description of self-help literature. The author's theory, which is half logical and half a fable, can also lead to a way of criticizing the book: "Do you think the book is yellow and unscientific? Then you are a yellow and unscientific personality, and any defect you see around you is yours."


Is this theory illogical? Not completely! In fact, it can be a tangible and debatable "totality" theory!


Ultimately, the book may have an impact. With a smart filter for sifting out the non-scientific repetitions of the book, from a few tangible sentences of it and compelling the reader to explore the unpleasant qualities that have been suppressed and hidden and of which one is ashamed to have.


After all, the book has nothing new to say after fifty pages. Without humor and playing with repetitive sentences, the volume of the book is reduced to a quarter of its current volume, and this craving for the repetitive literature of the book can also cause the loss of a few new sentences of the book.

I don't know what to write about it.

However, undoubtedly, in the right time, it made my heart very good.

Perhaps it was a beautiful moment, a kind gesture, or a simple smile that brought such warmth and joy.

Sometimes, even the smallest things can have a profound impact on our emotions.

It could be the gentle breeze on a sunny day, the sound of birds chirping in the morning, or the sight of a colorful flower blooming.

These little things have the power to brighten our day and make us forget about the troubles and stress.

We should learn to appreciate these precious moments and hold them dear in our hearts.

Because they are the ones that make life truly worth living.

His book presents interesting and diverse topics. It doesn't say that in this cruel world, one should be brave and victorious. It rather says that if the world is cruel, then you should also be cruel. Come along with it.

Its volume is also small and with supplements, it doesn't overwhelm a person's courage.

One of its problems, in my opinion, was the exercises it gave, which were very specialized and couldn't be easily implemented and actually had no independence. However, it didn't emphasize their methods much and just thought that it was enough for a person to read the book and think about its words.

In my opinion, with the current situation where people are moving towards sacrificing themselves in problems all the time and feeling that the whole world is oppressing them, the value of reading it once is there.

I have read half of the book and didn't continue further. It was repetitive, just repetition!

The acceptance of the flaws and weaknesses of existence is something that this book focuses on, and this topic is presented throughout the entire book at one level with different examples from the author's experiences.

That is, neither the subject changes nor the problem is examined from a deeper and different perspective. The previous contents are repeated and expressed with different words :)

This kind of repetition can make the reading experience a bit dull. However, it also emphasizes the importance of the author's main point. Maybe the author wants to ensure that the readers truly understand and internalize the idea of accepting flaws and weaknesses. On the other hand, it would have been better if the author could have explored the topic in more depth or presented it in a more diverse way to keep the readers more engaged.

I haven't read two chapters of the book.

However, I didn't feel very good about it.

Maybe it's because I don't trust non-academic texts on such topics.

Of course, it might not be a really bad book, but it seems to be commercial and for sale.

I think that when it comes to important subjects, we should rely on more reliable and academic sources.

Although commercial books may have some interesting points, they may not be as accurate and comprehensive as academic works.

Therefore, before choosing a book to read, we should carefully consider its quality and credibility.

This way, we can ensure that we are getting the most accurate and useful information.
