15 Things You Should Give Up to Be Happy An Inspiring Guide to Discovering Effortless Joy Luminita D Saviuc Vishen Lakhiani 9780399172823 Books Reviews

• The advice in this book literally CHANGED MY LIFE. I know now that I am responsible for my own happiness. By recognizing the things in my life that were holding me down and finally letting them go, I found a person inside me that I really like -- actually, a person that I LOVE! Letting go of the things that were causing me pain, stress and sadness was hard at first -- I had been holding on to many of them my entire life. But as I thought about these things every day, and focused on letting them go, my thoughts became my reality. For the first time, I can look in a mirror and say that I like myself the way I am. I don't say negative things about myself, either internally or out loud. I am brave, limitless, confident and HAPPY for the first time in my life. I'm not afraid of change, and I don't need to impress anyone. This is not the person I was four years ago -- thank you, Luminita, for helping me find my best self.
• I am currently through 1/3rd of this treasure and have decided to "not wait" to finish this book before writing a review. The reason is quite simply that Luminita Saviuc's 15 Things You Should Give Up to Be Happy has helped me make a profoundly positive shift in my life and I want others to experience the simple yet life changing principles that Luminita sets forth. I have read many great motivating books by authors including Tolle, Thict Nhat Hahn, and Miguel Ruiz among others, and I truly feel that Luminita has written in such a way that I frequently find myself recalling her wisdom and applying it throughout my day to bring greater peace to myself and those around me.
• I just finished reading Luminita's book and I highly recommend this book to anyone who has the courage to just let go and experience the best life has to offer. Luminita to me, has proven in her writing "15 Things You Should Give Up to Be Happy", that she has such courage. I have been on hiking trails when I was not sure which direction I take? The one thing a good hiker looks for are the correct trail markers in order to not get lost and to have a memorable and an enjoyable hike. Luminita has given us 15 important trail markers for for this path called LIFE and has given us wisdom through her own experiences "so you will immediately become conscious of the abundant life within you, and all of a sudden all kinds of wonderful things will start happening to you because of you." The wisdom in this book does not do the work for us, but like true accurate trail markers, they show us the best way and what to avoid so that on this path called Life. The path she is encouraging us to follow is one all full of love, happiness, and confidence. She also points out, as human beings, we are all in this together and we can put our faith, and trust in God, our Creator. Not knowing whats ahead, not fearing what is ahead and having complete trust that life will bring the best for us, better than we could ever have imagined. I am very proud to have read this book and will read it many times more. Sam Wood
• I have been following an internet blog written by The Purpose Fairy for about 4 years now. One of the most outstanding writings on this blog, among many insightful other ones, was one with the same title of this new book. When I first read this empowering list, I found that I could easily relate and apply each of these 15 to what was occurring in my life. I shared it with my family and friends, and also a support group, where it was thoroughly discussed, resulting in many emotional and personal responses. Since then, I have referred to this list numerous times, and shared personal responses with Luminita Saviuc, the author, who has always written back. I learned in 2015 that Ms. Saviuc, was writing a book discussing her personal experiences, journey and process in developing the "15 Things You Should Give Up To Be Happy."
  This book is about Luminita's personal journey of how her experiences were used to take back her health and happiness, what she let go of to free herself, and how she created a life shift to positivism. It is a powerful "biographical" reading for those looking to learn about others that have analyzed the often painful "lessons" of life, developed and evolved a personal solution to what was once a serious struggle. For those in any of the 12 step programs, it is an emotional, motivating and cognitive read that is deeply interesting and stimulating. As I completed the book, I know that if I can learn to master each of these areas, and they are each within my reach, that I will be a better communicator in all my relationships, especially the one with myself.
• I absolutely love Luminita. I have always enjoyed his inspirational blog and when I learned of her book - I knew I would want it. I have enjoyed it immensely. Luminita is a true inspiration. I have bought copies for my daughters and friends as well. Everyone has enjoyed spending time in her book! Buy this book! You won't be disappointed.
• Short but compelling read. I loved hearing the author’s own story as well as the lessons she learned throughout her life. I picked up so many helpful insights about how I should be living my life in order to be truly happy. Recommended read.
• Luminita soft words have a magical ability to make sense of life around us. I have been following her writings for several years. Though her Writings, I was introduced to many amazing writers like Wayne Dyer and others.This book will lift your spirits if you are feeling down.
