Book Title
Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah
Book Description
I read this book as an adolescent — then reread it over time and tormented my kids with it. The lessons are simple and complex, and inspired me to do what I care about. As the book says, “You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true. You may have to work for it, however.” Further, “if you really want to remove a cloud from your life, you do not make a big production out of it, you just relax and remove it from your thinking.” No limits — just do and grow.
