Best Love Reviews
Honestly, this book was very different from what I expected. Some parts made me laugh, some made me disagree, and some actually made me stop reading for a minute and think. The whole idea of soul, ego, and intuition really stayed with me.
I liked the way the author talks about ego. Most books just tell you to get rid of it, but here he talks more about understanding it and balancing it. That made a lot more sense to me.
Not going to lie, the beginning is pretty wild and definitely grabs your attention. I wasn’t sure where the book was going at first, but once I got into the Trifecta part, everything started connecting better. I didn’t agree with every opinion, but I enjoyed the read.
The part about unconditional love was probably my favorite. I liked that the author also explains that loving someone doesn’t mean you have to accept bad behavior. I would’ve actually liked to see more real-life relationship examples around this because that part was really useful.
“I Feel… Therefore, I Am” really got me thinking. I’m someone who overthinks everything, so the idea of actually listening to your intuition hit home. I’m still not sure I would trust feelings in every situation, but I get what the author is trying to say.
There’s a lot going on in this book. Religion, money, politics, relationships, ego, love… pretty much everything gets touched on. At times I felt like some sections could’ve been shorter, but I also respect that the author clearly had a lot he wanted to get off his chest.
The more personal parts were the strongest for me. When he talks about his parents and his own experiences, the book feels less like philosophy and more like someone actually sharing what life taught him. I connected with those parts a lot.
I really liked the practical guide at the end. Before that, I kept thinking, “Okay, but how do I actually use this in real life?” The exercises made the whole ego, intuition, and soul idea much easier to understand.
This is one of those books where you’re probably not going to agree with everything, and I think that’s fine. I disagreed with a few things myself, but it still made me question why I think the way I do. For me, that made it worth reading.
The “lackless expectations” idea was probably the biggest takeaway for me. We expect so much from people and then get upset when they don’t act the way we want. I think this topic alone could honestly have had even more examples because it’s something almost everyone can relate to.
