The most difficult thing is to be open - By: Lateau, 03 Jan 2009 
Many titles cause immediate rejection by people. We consider ourselves balanced enough & are doing just fine thank you very much. And yet we find that we are not quite happy & there are things that we would like to change. Or, more dangerously, we don't need to change..others do.
This is a text that does challlenge you, especiallly if you do not have an open mind. It is a book that I put down & came back to when I realised that I was not open to change. And once you get over the fact that it is accurate & does sum up aspects of yourself, both good & bad, then it becomes a powerful change agent. I do not compare this title to others, I can say that if you are open to it then it can work for you.
33/6 perfectionist - By: b.lops, 13 Jul 2008 
I have to admit that Having read Dan Millman's peaceful warrior books I hesitated at the idea of finding your life purpose through the numbers of your birth date. Surely this has been done before with numerology??!!! So I worked out my own,read up & thought "wow that's me alright" & "how true" then " hmmm wonder if I'm just gullible?" so I tried it on family, friends & particularly those I don't know so well & blow me down only 1 out of 18 people didn't agree with their description. The 17 who did agree were reallly surprised at how true it alll seemed & a number of them decided to buy the book themselves. So there you go, me & 17 of my family & friends think it's brilliant, a way to cut through the junk in your head, see the best you can be & leave the worst behind.
Why not? - By: Bulldog, 10 Jun 2008 
Look at the Universe, either we know everything about the Universe or we don't ... either way it is mind-boggling.
Alot of people for a long time were passionately opposed to the idea that the world was not flat, despite the evidence in front of them.
It seems to me, despite our recent prowess as a species, that we do not know or understand everything about this Universe in which we live.
Whatever the source of the content of this book, the evidence that it rings true to life's experiences is compelling. All my closest family & friends match very well to their profiles.
My recommendation is to read this book with an open mind, without concern for justification of the content, just enjoy the journey & see where it leads, you may well surprise yourself & enter a part of the Universe up until now you were unaware of.
A Trully Eye Opening Book His Best Yet - By: Simon J. Fife, 26 Apr 2008 
As the title to my heading says an eye opening book so much so they should re-title "way of the peaceful warrior a book that changes lives" as peaceful warrior can & does open your eyes but "The life you were born to live" truly can change your life.
I have had this book for a while & have been reading alll Dans books i now wish i had read this book straight after the "peaceful warrior".
I have had quite a few personal problems in my life of late & after reading the first two chapters of this book was shocked at the similarities it states have been truly eye opening I now know what my life purpose is i guess i did but reading dan's honest wording i am now & truly on the path to happiness.
I almost put this book down.... - By: Dr. Whe Warrilow, 25 May 2004 
I picked this book up whilst browsing in a bookstore; I almost put it straight back on the shelf when I realized it was "numerology" (i.e. hokum in my experience); but on impulse, I kept on reading; & in thirty minutes I was riveted. I cannot explain HOW this works; but there is an uncanny accuracy to the insights this book reveals. I found myself with a wry grin recognizing very specific, very pertinent themes that were congruent with my experience. I have now bought the book, as I feel it might prove very helpful in understanding my wife, my children & others' life tasks. Don't let your cynicism stop you reading this book; pick it up, apply its method, & let your heart judge its value. I think you will be (pleasantly!) surprised...
