    One of the Best Self-Help Books I've Ever Read
  

*by T***C on Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2012*

Flat-out, one of the best self-help books I've ever read (although the author would contend you don't need any 'help', that you already have all you need within!)It's a fun, light read. I'm assuming the author wrote regular entries into a journal and then compiled/stapled it into a book. It's very high level/not deep advice which makes for a light read. But it's VERY inspiring and helps you to love yourself in the moment.The book title explains exactly Cohen's principle: that everything you aspire to create, experience, contribute and be, is already within you, innately. Rather than having to outside of yourself and look for 'it' in another product, pill, course, workshop or guru, you only have to recognize that 'it' is already yours, it's already there, and always has been.I'll be honest, I even wrote up chapter summaries of this book and gave to friends, that's how much I enjoyed it. And it's one of 11 books on my "fire" shelf in my library. You know, the one shelf I would grab if the house were on fire.My favorite analogy/story in the book is when Cohen talks about one of the Polynesian or Hawaiian cultures. Whether babies are CONSTANTLY held/never allowed to touch the ground for the first 3 or 4 months of their lives. They're viewed as angels and they want their light to not be encumbered in any way.Cohen says we ALL have this same light shining through us; that we can't go get more light. We simply have to remove the rocks from our bowl that are blocking our innate light from shining brightly.You'll have to read the chapter. But it's awesome. And was my favorite chapter in the book. Good luck!

    Alan Cohen always delivers
  

*by B***E on Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2021*

Another pearl of wisdom by Alan Cohen. I LOVE his books. I admire his ability to tell a great story and pack a ton of wisdom in small and easy to read books. Many sentences pack such a punch that they make brilliant, wise and beautiful quotes. Wish I could write like him. ;-)Highly recommended!

    Alan Cohen is one of my favorite authors and I had read all of his books ...
  

*by T***G on Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2017*

Alan Cohen is one of my favorite authors and I had read all of his books like "The Dragon Doesn't Live Here Anymore" and several others.  One day I inputted his name in the Amazon search bar, and VOILA!  Books by Cohen that I hadn't read! So I bought this one ("I Had It All The Time") and "A Course in Miracles Made Easy".  Cohen is conversational, uses humor well, and pulls me into his world.  I like it.
