Insofar as the word 'should' even has meaning, then we must say that the past is exactly as it should be, everything that happened should have happened, and everything that should happen will happen

Yes, surprisingly I did. Hope is part of our daily lives. The author went a step further to explore all these qualities and with hard thinking, these qualities are essential and practical. Although not everyone will agree, I believe it applies to my life.
Life will go whichever way. Changing it is up to a very powerful force :|

I'm glad you found the exploration of essential qualities relatable. Embracing hope in our daily lives can indeed be practical and impactful, combined with personal experiences.

Mot times I find ot quite unusual that after reading a book, I don’t always agree with some of the author’s opinions. But with this book talked about everyone essential and I couldn’t agree more.

I didn't agree with everything in the book, but the important things, like having hope, I did. I have my own opinions about most things, so I very rarely agree with everything an author says. I can see how all of the essentials can be seen as "essential" to lots of people, though.

Latest Review: Becoming Change Makers by Dr. Dominica McBride

Post by João Ramos »

This work is a book that is recommended for a vast audience and contains self-evident truths. After all, it seems self-evident that having Hope suits the individual. The most anyone could argue is that too much "Hope" can generate a kind of lethargy, but other than that, there's not much to say.

As Dr. Randy Ross presented life situations and scientific evidence, he was very successful in proving his point. Off the top of my head, I don't remember anything he wrote that I mainly found wrong. If it happened, it was something very minor and unimportant.

It's hard to read something and agree with everything, but in this case I agree with most of it. There's something here and there that I see differently, but I can still understand it, and honestly, I always love read how different other people see the same thing, and this always help me to thing about it.

Hmmmm, some things were quite not realistic. However, I generally loved the book and what it stands for. As long as it preached finding happiness, it's nice.
