The Awakening Course

Albert Einstein said it best - “No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it.” This can be applied to the most simple and complex problems in every individual’s life. A person cannot expect their problems to disappear by approaching them with the same mindset over and over again. Life’s most common questions, such as - How will I pay this month’s bills? When will I be able to find a new job? How can I create a more fulfilling life for myself? - need to be approached with a new and open mindset that is best described as, an awakening. 

Inspirational speaker and best-selling author, Joe Vitale’s new book THE AWAKENING COURSE: The Secret to Solving All Problems (Wiley; Hardcover; December 2010; $24.95; 978-0-470-88803-2) is based on his most recent breakthrough program that explains the four stages of awakening as a guide to take readers out of their traditional approach to life’s problems to where they want to be. 

Too many people believe that struggling is a part of life, but Vitale points out that life is not about the struggle. It is about attracting desirable people, things and experiences into one’s life. THE AWAKENING COURSE explains this “law of attraction” and how it can help individuals figure out what they want in their life, how to go for it and how to accept that everything else either doesn’t matter or will change for the better.

THE AWAKENING COURSE builds on everything Vitale has written and spoken about in the past and takes readers to a new level of personal and professional transcendence. Vitale explains how each stage of awakening can change an individual’s outlook on life. The book explains the stages as:

• Victimhood – How to take responsibility for life’s experiences – good or bad – and how to move past them
• Empowerment – How to send a positive message into the world
• Surrender – How to push aside the instinct to be controlling of every aspect of life and surrender to a higher power of direction
• Awakening - The final stage is an awakening to what's possible in life with a complete mind, body and spiritual transformation

Vitale explores the fact that many people doubt themselves and their abilities, letting fear get in their way. The book delves into ways readers can focus on their most desired goals by finding inspired action, motivating change in their lives by releasing unconscious counter intentions and finding a door of awakening that makes life easier. THE AWAKENING COURSE gives a proven step-by-step approach for finding and achieving goals with insights such as:

• How to discover new perspectives on money, role models, and the power of one’s unconscious
• Tips on re-stating complaints into positive life-changing intentions
• Five steps for attracting anything or anyone into one’s life
• What it means to be awakened and why it’s so important
• Ways to turn fears into catalyst for success

The book also includes chapters dedicated to life’s most common concerns - money and relationships. A chapter titled “The Awakened Millionaire” guides readers in learning how to live a life that allows them to enjoy a positive relationship with money in order to attract it into their lives. Another chapter titled “The Awakened Relationship” describes love as the foundation of all relationships and how to love ourselves and other people unconditionally.

In one of his most personal books, Vitale also discusses how he overcame homelessness and became the successful author is he is today by using the very stages he describes in the book. AWAKENING COURSE shares the tips he has learned over the last 30 years allowing readers to stop feeling miserable and move to the next level, and finally, awaken.
