If you aren't interested in reading a parable inside of a story to gain insights into this book's practical lessons, you can

(1) just read page 90 or

(2) read the book of John from the Bible and pray for guidance.

I believe the latter will do you more good.

I graded the book down because accomplishing the psychological state that Dr. Johnson describes requires either spiritual support or mastery of many more skills than are described in this book.

Here's an example:

"Uncover the good that is hidden in a bad time, and use it soon to your advantage."

The fact that the good aspect of difficulties isn't obvious should be a clue that this isn't easy to do.

With Bible reading and prayer, I find that most people can become adept at making this kind of change pretty quickly. Without those resources, it takes a lot of training and exercises to make people adept at seeing opportunity in difficult circumstances. This book won't do it for you.

I do agree that it's better to set your mood independently of your circumstances and to use an objective, untroubled mind to determine how to contribute more to others in a loving, constructive way.

The book's writing (independent of the content) is simple, charming, and pleasant. Although the book lacks the simplicity and visceral connection of Who Moved My Cheese?, I found it to be well designed for displaying the big theme messages that it emphasizes.

But I can offer hope. Dr. Johnson usually rewrites his books with each printing. The tenth printing will undoubtedly be a lot better than this one.
