One of the only people I know who pulls off punk rock and self-help simultaneously.Conner HabibPower is what naturally results when everything needless and self-defeating is stripped out of your life. Are you prepared to dedicate 30 days to throwing off whatever conceals the greater self you have always suspected you are? If youre unsure do not even begin this book. In The Miracle Month, Mitch Horowitz, a cross between Aleister Crowley and Alan Watts (Duncan Trussell), provides a 30-day, self-enforced academy that disrupts, upends, and overthrows every social and self-imposed barrier to your innate power. This book, Mitch writes, is for people who would prefer nearly any alternative than to slide back into the anxiety, self-limitations, and half-in, half-out existence that they have known until now. Does that sound extreme? It is not. It is an open door to change.Mitch helps you Understand Power (Day 9), Give Up One Thing That Causes You Pain (Day 13), realize You Are Not Someone Elses Decision (Day 27), and confront the question: Do You Enjoy Suffering? (Day 26). In 30 realizable, graspable steps you will reverse years of peer-enforced conformity and self-negation to become who yourightlysense you are. Horowitz comes across as the real deal: he is an authentic adept mind and he knows his stuff.Boing BoingConvincingtakes us far from naïve doctrines.Paris MatchMitch is solid gold.David Lynch
