Cogito ergo sum

"In an effort to change our destiny, take the time to create goals. Don't overdo it, but do something!" ~Chip Fraser It is quite rare to happen upon a book of thoughts that are not only entertaining and healing, they present a fresh perspective on ancient wisdom. Throughout this eclectic collection of thoughts, you will find thought provoking topics and a dose of daily insight. Chip Fraser delves into an extensive list of topics and also provides a useful "key word index" at the start of this beautiful golden-covered book. You can quickly access information on creative thinking or inspiration or scan the table of contents for inspirational ideas. The alphabetical list allows you to quickly locate everything from belief to volunteering service. What is even more enjoyable is to play with a little randomness. Open the book on any page and find out what the Dashboard Saint has to say. On my first reading experience, I opened the book to page 200 and read: "Conceive, Believe, Achieve." It seems that I keep coming across messages about "intention." Topics you might enjoy: Life is too Serious to be taken Seriously! SAY Yes AS Often As Possible Where is the Groupthink Café?

It is always encouraging when I start laughing while reading the preface and introduction. It is also quite rare to find a complete explanation for exactly why an author has written a book. I was especially interested in the "Deepak Chopra" topic in small print and the "ENLIGHTENED PERSPECTIVE" in caps although I didn't quite understand some of the unnecessary comments on page 15 until I had reached the end of the page and figured that maybe this was an oversight. Chip also discusses elements of popular culture and throws in a bit of humor here and there to amuse the reader. Overall, this does seem to be a creative exploration of life itself. Philosophy of a Dashboard Saint is a rare find and exactly the type of book I love finding. Chip Fraser not only encourages you to develop your own philosophy, he encourages you to develop a deeper level of contemplation in order to navigate your life into a more positive future. You won't agree with everything, but isn't that half the fun of reading? There is a definite play between the creative thoughts of the authors and your own philosophy. Philosophy of a Dashboard Saint is not only entertaining; it will encourage you to improve your life. This book is quite an accomplishment, although, I do believe it was René Descartes and not Rousseau who originally said: "I think, therefore I am." ~The Rebecca Review
