De eerste keer dat ik dit boek las, was in 2019. Ik weet niet goed hoe ik het boek gevonden had, maar het thema vertrouwen interesseerde me als economisch en psychologisch fenomeen. Waarom heeft de een wel zelfvertrouwen en de ander niet. Of minder?
Nu [voorjaar 2023] ik bezig ben met het boek over coaches, lees ik het werk opnieuw en met andere ogen. Ik begrijp nu dat McKenna de NLP techniek gebruikt, en sinds ik daar iets meer over gelezen heb, merk je dat bij het lezen.
NLP dus.
Ik las het van het weekend opnieuw, en het boek maakt nu niet echt indruk op me. De trucjes vallen me nu meer op. Wanneer ik zie dat ik over mijn ogen moet wrijven, dan haak ik af...
Wat me wel aansprak was het groot aantal uitspraken van bekende personen. Een daarvan viel me vooral op: ... Denk aan de toekomst, dat is waar ik de rest van mijn leven doorgabrengen... (*)
