The Three Deceivers

Subtitle: How Today's Obsession with Control, Ownership, and Independence is Destroying the Quality of Our Lives

CONTROL, OWNERSHIP & INDEPENDENCE...

Three honorable and desirable concepts right? Wrong! According to New York Times #1 best-selling author, Richard M. Eyre. He sees Control, Ownership, & Independence (CO&I) as The Three Deceivers.

Why? Because they are not only unobtainable but undesirable. The author maintains that their pursuit draws us away from our divine roots and intent and actually serves to diminish our relationship with God and other people.

The Three Deceivers strike at the heart of where we should find our greatest joys.

The author discusses how the Three Deceivers contribute to our unhappiness and frustration and then introduces The Three Alternatives, which is actually the second half of the book—read from the OTHER SIDE!

What are the Three Alternatives? Well, you will have to read the book to learn what they are, but in short, they are those goals and concepts that we should employ INSTEAD of CO&I in order to lead to a happier, more soul-satisfying life.

The book is actually divided into two books that start from opposite sides, but don't spoil the reading experience by reading them in the wrong order.

Praise for the book

"I found the section on serendipity just absolutely mind-boggling. I had never heard this before. I just think it is one of the best things that I have read and it is so incredibly true." —Glenn Beck
