This is not a complete book by Jack Canfield. This is the simple one, but the content is very motivational. The content of this book is Fundamentals of Success that has 2 sub topics, these are: Take 100% Responsibility for Your Life and Be Clear Why You’re Here. This a motivation book to be success by having principles. The first sub topic is opened by very motivational quotes, “You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself” by Jim Rohn, America’s foremost business philosopher. On this book also be mentioned that “There is only one person responsible for the quality of the life you live, that person is you.” This is very good word because if we do not take the responsible of ourselves, who else? If you want to be successful, you have to take 100% responsibility for everything that you experience in your life. This includes the level of your achievements, the results you produce, the quality of your relationships, the state of your health and physical fitness, your income, your debts, your feelings everything! This is not easy. In fact, most of us have been conditioned to blame something outside of ourselves for the parts of our life we don’t like. We blame our parents, our bosses, our friends, our coworkers, our spouse, the weather, the economy, the government, our astrological chart, our lack of money, anyone or anything we can pin the blame on. We never want to look at where the real problem is ourselves.

There is a wonderful story told about a man who is out walking one night and comes upon another man down on his knees looking for something under a street lamp. The passerby inquires as to what the other man is looking for. He answers that he is looking for his lost key. The passerby offers to help and gets down on his knees and helps him search for the key. After an hour of fruitless searching, he says, “We’ve looked everywhere for it and we haven’t found it. Are you sure that you lost it here?”The other man replies, “No, I lost it in my house, but there is more light out here under the street lamp”. It is time to stop looking outside yourself for the answers to why you haven’t created the life and results you want, for it is you who creates the quality of the life you lead and the results you produce. You, no one else! To achieve major success in life, to achieve those things that are most important to you, you must assume 100% responsibility for your life. Nothing less will do.

You see, without a purpose in life, it’s easy to get sidetracked on your life’s journey. It’s easy to wander and drift, accomplishing little.But with a purpose, everything in life seems to fall into place. To be “on purpose” means you’re doing what you love to do, doing what you’re good at, and accomplishing what’s important to you. When you are truly and passionately on purpose, the people, resources, and opportunities you need naturally gravitate toward you. The world benefits, too, because when you act in alignment with your true life purpose, which may at first glance seem selfish, all of your actions automatically serve others.

After reading this book, I think this is a very good book. The content of this is very interesting. There are motivational story, motivational quotes, and the formula of 100% responsibility that we can learn about it. There are many words that will make us realize that we must not blame other, blame someone, time, event, something or whatever that is. We just need to realize that only us who need to change because we cannot change circumstance or time. We just need to response the event that happen surrounding us positively. By positively response in every event, the events also will response us positively. It is a good book to be read because it can uplift your mind in thinking positively and fire our spirit in passing this life enjoyably.
