Erroneous Zones of life ....

What are Erroneous Zones ?

Zones which we must avoid and move out
These zones slow you and postpone your achievement of true potential
These zones drag you into a helpless , anxious, sad and painful journey of life making you believe that life is tough and someone else controls your destiny

In his book "Your Erroneous zone " Dr Wayne Dyer shortlists and explores the most common erroneous zones in which most of us get into ..

He dives deeper into each erroneous zone and disects them in 3 ways

1)  Understanding each erroneous zone
2) why do we stick to them inspite of being unhappy and having a self sabotaging effects on our life experience
3) what can be done to avoid or move away from them

The erroneous zones he explored are

1) Giving charge of our well being to others
2) Puting others ahead over our ownself 
3) Living life as per the labels of personality , rituals , likes and dislikes of others and society
In short needing approval for survival
4)  Trapped in past and emotions build over past life
5) Sticking to familiar zones of life and avoiding unknown zones
6) playing blame game the ultimate saviour and getting into viscous circle of should and must activites in life inspite of personal dislikes for them
7) Being imprisoned in the concept of justice and expectation of a fair life and playing victim game
8) Procrastination the self deceiving habit
9) Dependency attitude
10) Anger zone

I could relate with each zone personally and have gone through many of them and trapped in some of them myself

My personal favourites and aaha !  moments from this book are :

a) Clearity on right vs wrong
b) Justice seeking concept
c) elaboration on thought and feeling
d) futility of compulsions in life
f) labels given by others society and accepted by us and living our life to fulfil them

You see...
 Some books enhance your knoweldge 
 Some widen your perspectives
Some stir you and compel you to relook life and transform
Some inspire  and motivate you

I have come to this book after reading and pondering on hundreds of books on self exploration and hence was already more or less exposed to these zones and their damaging impact on human beings

For me the concept in this book were a  reassurance  that these are the Zones which dilute the power and magnanimity of being human

And certainly they deepened by perspectives on some of the concepts of these zones 

A compelling read to success hunters and wellbeing seekers in life

Bless the soul of the author
