    About this ebook

    Upbeat, humorous, and iconoclastic, Lynn Grabhorn introduced readers to the Law of Attraction in 2000 with Excuse Me, Your Life is Waiting. The hardcover edition was an immediate hit, sold more than 151,000 copies, and appeared on the New York Times bestseller list.

    Grabhorn was the first to reveal that the power of feelings is what unconsciously shapes and molds every moment of every day. In this groundbreaking book, she reveals how paying attention to feelings--rather than positive thinking, or sweat and strain, or good or bad luck, or even smarts--is the way to change your life, make dreams come true, and create the kind of life you really want to live.

    Excuse me, Your Life is Waiting is filled with logical explanations, simple steps, and true-life examples that empower readers to access their feelings and turn their lives around.

      Excuse Me, Your Life is WaitingThe Astonishing Power of Feelingsby Lynn Grabhorn This 245 page treasure was nothing short of amazing. I was just so impressed with the author as she takes us from one human escapade to another with humor, compassion and a good dose of pepper. This is a feel good book that can guide you along through the worst parts of discovery in such a lovely friendly manner that you hardly know you are finding your way out of that prison of your own making. There is a whole lot of manifesting going on and we can be a part of it. By taking good honest looks and making wiser choices this helpful read shows us that we can release old ways of thinking and usher in the new. I was especially drawn to the personal stories and how people like myself were able to wake up and have a life. My favorite was about the real estate office. I would recommend this much needed totally spiritually available teacher to anyone looking for the illusive butterfly of abundance. Thanks Lynn, may you continue to bring us many more gems like this one. Love & Light, Riki Frahmann

      I have to admit, I was not able to complete this book. While I liked the way Grabhorn wrote and enjoyed her sense of humor, the content was a bit too hokey for me. I had read The Secret and recognize that there is a lot to be gained from positive thought. However, after reading most of the Secret and about 1/2 of this book, I'm convinced that I am not a believer in the true power of positive thinking and that it will attract what you want in life. My review only pertains to that part of the book that I read and I'm noting that Grabhorn's writing was not necessarily what i disliked but the theory.
    • 4/5
      I have a rather large collection of what I call "self help" or motivational books so I was happy to receive this as an advance readers copy even though it's actually a rerelease. It seems that most reader's compare this book to the Secret and in some aspects I think that's true. Grabhorn takes what many other books in this genre profess and that is the power of positive thought or speech and relates that to feelings. I think she sums it up easily in her statement that any feeling/emotion that's not joyful is negative. Her book is well structured, easy to understand and mixes great humor. I can relate some of the concepts with Wayne Dyers work. It's unfortunate that she is no longer with us.
    • 3/5
      As other have mentioned this book is very much in the same school of thought at the Secret. I found this book easier to understand than the Secret though and less new age (for me a good thing). If you have read other books of this nature I don;t think this book offers up anything new.
    • 5/5
      This book is The Law of Attraction and the Power of Intention for Life's method actors. The author is superb at communicating that we must not only 'feel' in order to attract that which we desire into our lives, but that we must 'be' the emotion, actually creating the life circumstances we wish to exist. A clear, humorous read- highly recommended.
    • 5/5
      This was the 10th anniversary of a book that is considered a classic in the world of coaching. It was always recommended to me but I'd never had the chance to actually read it and I had no idea that it was based on the Law of Attraction and Abraham-Hicks work--long before "The Secret." I found it very useful and have passed several copies on to friends.
    • 3/5
      This book is easy to read. It is kind of the whole "the secret" premise, but easier to grasp. I found some of it irritatingly repetitious. Without it, the book would have been a lot shorter. I also had trouble with the last quarter of the book where she discusses how we attract the terrible things that happen to us and the world. i.e, a plane crash where everyone dies means everybody on the plane had the same negative frequency. I also can't justify sitting back and letting the bad stuff in the world go on without doing more than sending good feelings to the people involved, good and bad.
    • 4/5
      I've read the Secret and Dr. Dyer's works on the law of attraction in various forms, and I liked this book a lot. It was direct and down to earth, amusing and an easy read. I'm working this now, and I feel better already, and I have more hope for my future. I was disheartened to hear of Lynn's death and the murky circumstances surrounding it, but who am I to judge? It was her own journey on this earth, and she's moved on, certainly with my blessing. What's strange is that I received this book for the early reviewers' program, yet it's not a new work. Synchronicity anyone???
    • 1/5
      The author of this book seems to have taken most of her material from another group. She died soon after publishing the updated version in a way that belies her claims in the book. I can only say that, although I do think there is merit to the idea of the power of thoughts, there are MANY much better books out there on the subject. For example: Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, and more recently The Field by Lynne McTaggart.
    • 5/5
      I received this via Early Reviewers and I really enjoyed it. Since I've read tons of books in this genre there wasn't much new information for me -- it dovetails with The Secret and Esther and Jerry Hicks' books quite nicely. What was really cool about this book, though, is that Lynn Grabhorn made the information entertaining and very accessible for people who might not otherwise be receptive to an idea like wisdom conveyed through a chanelled entity like Abraham or Seth. The tone of the book is very light and playful, so topics like how to move from a bad mood into a good mood seem less like work and more like a fun thing to try.Another thing I really loved is that Grabhorn doesn't provide a list of required exercises to move through the chapters the way a lot of other personal development books do. Sometimes I just want to read something positive without having to feel guilty about not "doing the work" the authors recommend. This fits that bill.I think the funny thing for me was that when I received this book I really needed a reminder to mind my mind...little synchronicities like that are precisely what this book is about.
    • 4/5
      This book gives a lot of practical advice from a new viewpoint. Instead of focusing on or acknowledging the negative. Focus on the positive feelings surrounding circumstances, etc you wish were reality. It creates an entirely different 'vibration' which is much happier than the poor, poor me way of thinking.
    • 5/5
      This book will be added to the list of BEST BOOKs I'VE EVER READ!!! Truly amazing. It goes one step further in the concept of the Law of Attraction, adding feelings and positive vibrations of matter (we are all matter) into the mix. Not only was it fascinating, but I started using the author's techniques the day I started reading the book, with almost immediate results. I would say it was "magical" but then, you probably wouldn't believe me. Those who will listen to me are sick of hearing about "THE BOOK" as I have been calling it, and I'm constantly calling them and emailing them about "what just happened" to affirm that the concepts in THE BOOK work!!!I feel very blessed and grateful for having received THE BOOK as a LIBRARY THING reader. :)
    • 5/5
      A fantastic in depth look at the law of attraction and how you can make it work for you. I recommend purchasing the Excuse Me, Your Life is Waiting playbook to use while reading. The activities in the Playbook focuses your energy and makes it easy to put Lynne's advice to work in your life.
