Where Is Your Shadow? A Review of Debbie Ford’s The Shadow Effect Movie

The Shadow Effect - Two-Disc Set

I first heard of Debbie Ford, from Joe Vitale about a year and a half ago. Joe wrote highly of her on his blog. Soon after rushed to the library and picked up Debbie Ford’s best-selling book, The Dark Side of the Light Chasers: Reclaiming Your Power, Creativity, Brilliance, and Dreams. I picked up a handful of golden nuggets from that book which had a tremendous effect on me and changed me for the better. I have read many books in the past, and I continue to do so. Throughout my journey through life there have been certain books that I read that have changed my life for the better. Debbie Ford’s book was one of them.

So when I heard the she was releasing her new book called, Why Good People Do Bad Things: How to Stop Being Your Own Worst Enemy I wanted to get my hands on it. But for whatever reason, I forgot about the book until a few months later when I came to know that Ford was making a “movie” based on the book. The movie is called: The Shadow Effect.

Thanks to the generous offer of CK Reyes of www.divinepurposeunleashed.com I was sent a complimentary copy of The Shadow Effect DVD in exchange for my honest review of the movie. Not only did I watch the movie and think it was great, I also began reading the book and together they offered highly impactful nuggets of wisdom to apply to my life and change it for the better.

So what is the shadow effect really about? Here is a small portion of what I learned about the movie.

The Shadow Effect begins by pointing out that every human being has an internal shadow. Every time we act in a certain way on the outside, we cast a shadow which is its exact opposite. It’s the simple old concept of duality. Everything has an opposite. That includes us. Human beings too are full of opposites. We can be do good or cause harm. We can be happy or sad. We can show empathy or be uncaring. We can be generous or miserly. We can be brave or fearful. The term “shadow” in field of self-development was first used by psychologist Carl Jung. In fact one of Jung’s famous quotes best explains what the shadow really is.

If you want to be successful you need to develop discipline and focus. As human beings we all have a tendency to get distracted. It’s normal. Don’t beat yourself up if you find yourself procrastinating or getting distracted every once in awhile.

Having said that, its important that you develop at least a little bit of discipline and focus. It will help you get your goals of the ground. It will help you get your projects completed.

Here is an amazing video. It’s by David Wolfe who promotes and teaches healthier living. In this video he talks a lot about how to become more disciplined and focused. He points out that we are all disciplined and focused in many parts of our lives already.

Weekend Update

As you already know from my last blog post, The Benefits of Change, I moved into a new home in recently.

Things are going great. We still need to set up our home phone and internet, but for now we are pretty much settled in.

Even though I started a new job two weeks ago, my main focus right now is making money online and helping others do the same. I have made money online in the past, but it has not been consistent. That is going to change soon inshallah. I took part in Justin and Chaunna Brooke’s 30 Day Apprentice Challenge last month and have made really big strides towards my goals.

At the end of the Challenge, Justin and Chaunna chose several of the challengers to work closely with them and guide them to better results online. One of the “chosen ones” was me. It is an opportunity that I am grateful for and I expect big things to come out of this.

They are also on the move. They are moving from Idaho to Florida. They are driving there. Once they reach their destination and settle in, we will begin the coaching sessions. I will keep you upto date. Make sure you visit my blog often so you don’t miss anything.

On another note…
