《你的误区:如何摆脱负面思维掌控你的生活》自始至终都强调做出选择和生活于现在这两点。即先根据你已做出的或未能做出的选择审视一下你的生活；以及从现在做起，这是消除误区、创造幸福的重要步骤。仔细阅读之后，你会很快给自己提出某些过去从未想过的问题；“我现在为什么要自寻烦恼？”“我怎样才能更为有效地利用现在的时光？”从而成为逐步摆脱误区、走向自我依靠和幸福的人。

自我挫败行为及其解脱办法是令人感动头痛的领域。但是“精神愉快”并不是一件复杂折事情，要实现这一点是我们每个人力所能及的。一个人只要将刻苦勤奋、合乎逻辑的思维、幽默感和自信心等品质集于一身，他便可以真正地生活。本书从几个主要方面介绍了保持精神愉快的思维方法，每一章都像一次心理询诊，详细论述了一个误区，即一种自我挫败行为，同时对这种行为的事例加以研究。在初步了解每个误区的行为之后，接着分析有些人之所以坚持使自己精神不愉快的原因。一旦消除了这些原因，你也就根除了自己的误区。每章结尾都论述如何消除这些自我贬低行为的简易方法。

From the author of the multimillion-copy bestseller Pulling Your Own Strings, positive and practical advice for breaking free from the trap of negative thinking and enjoying life to the fullest. If you're plagued by guilt or worry and find yourself unwittingly falling into the same old self-destructive patterns, then you have "erroneous zones"--whole facets of your approach to life that act as barriers to your success and happiness. If you believe that you have no control over your feelings and reactions, you give up the many choices that are available to you. Dyer shows how you can take charge of yourself and manage how much you will let difficult times--and people--affect you. If you spend more time worrying what others think than working on what you want and need, you will always be disappointed. Dyer shows that only you can make yourself happy and points the way to true self-reliance. If you are still caught up in old labels for yourself and an out-of-date self-image, you cancel out your present potential. Dyer shows how you can break out of the patterns of the post to become fulfilled in the present. If you depend upon others for your well-being, you lose yourself. Dyer shows how to take control of your own needs and learn to give and receive love without limits.
