Book Description:

Take control of your past, your memory, your emotions, your life!

While in medical school, Dr. Augusto Cury became fascinated with the impact a healthy mind can have on emotions and life. After many years of research and founding The Intelligence Institute, he concluded:

• Every person is a genius because everyone has the power to think.
• Harnessing "mind power" has been scientifically proven to enhance a person's physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.
• The human act of thinking is the greatest wonder of the universe.

In Think, and Make It Happen, Dr. Cury unveils the multifocal intelligence process showing readers how to master their emotions, stress, thoughts, and relationships, as well as how to become creative thinkers and revolutionary leaders. Complete with a 12-week program, participants will learn to apply the universal laws for quality of life to their own lives: authorship, beauty, creativity, sleep, thoughts, emotions, memory, listening, dialogue, drive, and spirituality and celebration and start experiencing the life they desire.

My Review:
Think and Make it Happen was not at all what I expected. The title makes the book sound as though it is a fluffy self-help book to make all your dreams come true. In fact, I found the book to a serious and powerful book, intricate in detail, to assist the reader to become emotionally whole with the ultimate example of a healthy psychological image. Using Jesus Christ as the perfect role model for emotional health, the author gives the reader tools needed to begin to work on learning to think in a different way.

While this may not be an easy book to read, the insight gained from the suggestions could potentially change a life of fear, anxiety, or grief to one of freedom and joy. Each thought-changing step is explained with suggested actions or examples. One section that I especially enjoyed was the “Finding Serenity” which contains five steps to improve our mindset.


I highly recommend this book for anyone struggling with lack of control over emotional issues. Think and Make it Happen would be a good book for individuals, small groups, Christian psychologists, and church libraries.
