At least 40% of our lives are composed of prophecies—some given by others, some self-imposed. Intentionally or unintentionally, we are all drawn by the magnet of prophecy toward the future. —Lolly Jones
Believe in prophecies, and miracles will appear. A single word can change a life—the wonderful portrayal of the "Rosenthal Effect." Dedicated to all parents, teachers, supervisors, doctors—you can become the "prophet" for children, students, subordinates, and patients, giving them strength!
In the distant past, prophecy was the exclusive domain of fortune-tellers, used to predict the future and mysterious events. This book introduces a more positive form of prophecy, one that is real in our daily lives and can be understood and used by anyone. The author tells us that prophecies can come from our family, friends, teachers, colleagues, strangers—they can happen to anyone. A few encouraging words from parents or teachers might keep us hopeful; a friend's support and encouragement will ultimately help us succeed. Even when faced with negative prophecies, we can turn them into motivation and prove them wrong with facts.
The book also shares some techniques and training methods to help readers become prophets, using influential language to inspire those around them.
