*YOUR ERRONEOUS
ZONES*
------Wayne W. Dyer
COVER OF
THE BOOK
It’sgreat
isn’tit
Wayne Walter Dyer is an American self-
help author and motivational speaker. His
first book Your Erroneous Zones is one of
the best-selling books of all time, with an
estimated 35 million copies sold.
Two themes: We choose to be
who we are. And we should take
charge of our present moments.
The first chapter emphasizes a theme
common to many people. We have
personal agency. We control our
thoughts, which affects our emotions.
Therefore, we control our emotions.
Negative thoughts create emotions which prevent us
from doing what we want to do. Example, shyness
prevents you from introducing yourself to someone
you like, you avoid expressing your feelings because
you fear offending other people.
Learning positive thought patterns to undo the
reinforcement of years of negative thoughts is hard
work.
*SELF LOVE*
Love yourself by creating a positive self image. A positive
self image is a virtuous cycle. When you free yourself from
the need for external approval, you are free in your pursuit of
happiness without fear of opinion. A positive self image also
lets you love others, who love you back.
*APPROVAL*
Approval from others can be pleasurable. However, it
should not become a need in our lives. Self esteem that
depends on approval from others is always collapse
when that approval is taken away. We also cannot
pursue happiness for ourselves if we are always
worrying about how other people will approve us.
*GUILT AND WORRY*
 Guilt as a reaction to imposed standards from an
authority figure. Or from not living up to self imposed
standards, standards which you don’t really believe in.
Guilt is present moment immobilization from a past event.
Learn from your mistakes instead of feeling guilty. Guilt
does not change the past. It is useless. Either change, or
accept your behavior.
