The Mercury Mind: How Harnessing Attraction Beyond Your Control is the Key to Better Relationships, Fulfilling Careers, and Your Most Powerful Self by Nathan Lancry is a non-fiction book on the power of relationships. Everyone recognizes a need for a relationship, and only a few will deny that. However, not everyone understands the values of relationships. Mercury, as a chemical element, is very flexible and malleable, and it can bond with its like properties and different properties. And so, the "Mercury Mind" connection is a strong and unique attraction that connects two or more people. The book is on a deeper level of self-discovery and relationship appreciation.

The Mercury Mind: How Harnessing Attraction Beyond Your Control is the Key to Better Relationships, Fulfilling Careers, and Your Most Powerful Self is a unique book with a solid introduction to the value of relationships. Generally, it embraces the diverse facets of relationships and self-development, ranging from family, friends, romantic, and even business relationships. This book not only makes one aware but also contains the various standards for identifying, maximizing, and understanding those relationships.

One of the many new things I learned from this book is the striking difference between self-confidence and self-esteem. The need to grow oneself from the guise of conscious attractions to authentic or subconscious attractions is also one of the primary focuses of this book. I like this feature in the book, although it can be very challenging.

The content is also very rich in information. It does not just include the “what to do.” It also covers the “how to do” part. I believe this is a necessary feature to be well balanced because it is one thing to recognize a toxic or unhealthy relationship and another thing to know how to handle such situations. I credit the author for this.

In-between different chapters, the writer gave real-life examples related to the discussion. Even though this is a good approach, I found some of them disturbing. For example, in the part where the writer elaborated on self-confidence, the writer mentioned David de las Morenas. The latter ran a million-subscriber YouTube Channel and was countering some of his principles on dating. Even though the major focus is to give readers a healthy view of relationships, I don't think it's right to criticize others' judgment to give yours a better view. I rate this book 3 out of 4 stars. This is because of the features mentioned above in the book. The book has a few errors. It is obviously professionally edited.

I recommend this book to readers who need help handling relationship issues or understanding relationship terms. As I mentioned earlier, it comprises all relational settings. This book is also a good book for self-discovery and potential realization. Those interested in such topics may wish to pick up this book.

I appreciate the power of relationships. I discovered a lot about myself and others through relating with others. The information in this book is inevitable. Thanks for the review.

[Danielle Briggs]

I loved the honesty in your review! I agree that including “the how” in this type of book is important, but it’s almost useless just to be able to identify something. Great review!

[Vincent Ongoro]

The book, The Mercury Mind is a master piece for relationship matters. The author gave out a modest and fruitful discussion on the importance of solid relationship. On the upper hand, I have learned about self confidence and self esteem. The book also teaches about self discovery in any relationship. I give it a 3 out of 4.

Today's BOTD is a nonfiction book that encourages readers to see and understand the value in relationships of all kinds, while explaining the different types and steps toward achieving them. This definitely sounds like a valuable read for those interested in self-discovery, reflection, and growth. Thank you so much for your wonderful review! Keep up the great work!!

[Ruth Omonegho]

I like nothing more than a book, person, guide, criticism, or instruction that not tells you what to do but how to do it too. The author has done well to include these in this personal development book.

A set of good ideas about handling relationship can be found in the book The Mercury Mind" by Nathan Lancry. Irony of using mercury for flexibility makes it more interesting.

[Asma Aisha Ansari]

Good relationships are important for leading a meaningful life. I'm eager to find out what this book offers in this regard.

[Shenila Ginabay]

I liked that the author was able to make us see how to handle situations in relationships instead of just telling the reader what to do and follow steps, this is very important. And I also liked that the book covers all different types of relationships including business ones.

[Aan Granados]

Having good relationships with family, friends, romantic and office are very important to our peace of mind and spirit. I would love to read this! Thank you for your review!

I am generally not drawn to self-help books. The title of this one is thought-provoking, though. What are the attractions beyond my control? I'll give this one a curious peek.

[Joshua_Caleb]

There are way too many self-help books out there. This one is no different. I think I'm going to pass.
