Title: Puts perspective on things
Review: Although this book may be weird or to far out for some people. I think that there is some useful information in this book. There are simple phrases that have really changed my outlook on life.Things like "Self Importance" really made me worry less about my problems and enjoy the world instead.Labeling things and categoring things can really take the meaning out of things. For example, Carlos tries to find out about Don Juans ancestry. Don Juan refuses to have his ancestry to tell him how to live or to label him, therefore he doesn't think it's important.I like the part where Carlos was whining about his father not getting up in time to go swimming. He whining went nowhere, Don Juan said that "maybe he had trouble getting up". "If you were so strong why didn't you go swimming yourself."I learned that promises you make to other people are equally important no matter how big or little it is.
