Way of the Peaceful Warrior

Way of the Peaceful Warrior: A Book That Changes Lives by Dan Millman. This book comes in three parts. I wish you could skip part one and just go straight to part two, but I think that the contrast between the whiny, annoying, self-conceited guy the narrator is in part one and the guy he becomes in parts two and three is part of the lesson. Which is too bad. I almost stopped reading the book after part one, and I was impressed with myself for having made it that far. But, I had nothing else to read and I was bored, so I continued with the rest of the book. I am almost glad I did, but really, if I hadn’t, it would have been no big loss in my life. I got out of it only a couple of things, things I’ve gotten elsewhere. I believe that if others haven’t read the dozens of self-help and self-actualization books that I have, there would be plenty of interesting, fascinating, and helpful things in this book. But, if you’re like me, and you’ve already read plenty, there’s not going to be much new for you. The story’s pretty good. If you like fantasy novels, give it a shot. It is an easy read. From the title, I was really hoping for more, but I didn’t get it.
