I Can See Clearly Now Description
For many years, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer’s fans have wondered when he would write a memoir. Well, after four decades as a teacher of self-empowerment and the best-selling author of more than 40 books, Wayne has finally done just that! However, he has written it in a way that only he can—with a remarkable take-home message for his longtime followers and new readers alike—and the result is an exciting new twist on the old format. Rather than a plain old memoir, Wayne has gathered together quantum-moment recollections.
In this revealing and engaging book, Wayne shares dozens of events from his life, from the time he was a little boy in Detroit up to present day. In unflinching detail, he relates his vivid impressions of encountering many forks in the road, taking readers with him into these formative experiences. Yet then he views the events from his current perspective, noting what lessons he ultimately learned, as well as how he has made the resulting wisdom available to millions via his lifelong dedication to service.
As a reader, you will feel as if you are right there with Wayne, perusing his personal photo album and hearing about his family, his time in the service, how he writes his best-selling books, and so much more. In the process, you’ll be inspired to look back at your own life to see how everything you have experienced has led you to where you are right now.
Wayne has discovered that there are no accidents. Although we may not be aware of who or what is “moving the checkers,” life has a purpose, and each step of our journey has something to teach us. As he says, “I wasn’t aware of all of the future implications that these early experiences were to offer me. Now, from a position of being able to see much more clearly, I know that every single encounter, every challenge, and every situation are all spectacular threads in the tapestry that represents and defines my life, and I am deeply grateful for all of it.”
I Can See Clearly Now is an intimate look at an amazing teacher, but it also holds the key for seekers on a personal path of enlightenment. Wayne offers up his own life as an example of how we can all recognize the hand of the Divine steering our individual courses, helping us accomplish the mission we came here to fulfill.

"I Can See Clearly Now" is a wonderful memoir which means a lot to me personally. It's a little hefty at nearly 400 pages, but I read it in quick time. It's a real page turner, and almost every page has at least one piece of great wisdom or insight.
I almost feel a little embarrassed at writing this review, as I have not read a Wayne Dyer book for well over a decade. Yet it was Wayne Dyer who first opened my eyes to a greater spiritual intention in the world when I picked up his book "You'll See It When You Believe It" in 1992. That was at the local newsagent in a tiny town in outback Australia.
As Dyer writes, that older book was really the first volume he penned with a deep spiritual thrust. Before then he had primarily been writing popular psychology in the human potential genre. I remember the great excitement I felt all those years ago when I saw that book on the shelf; and I got exactly the same sense of excitement when I picked up "I Can See Clearly Now". I bought it based purely on that intuition. And I am sure glad I did.
"I Can See Clearly Now" proceeds in chronological order, detailing Wayne Dyer's life from his early childhood as an orphan, formative adolescent experiences, life in the navy and then as a student and professor. At the age of 36 Dyer had his first success with "Your Erroneous Zones" and this was followed by another forty books. The narrative outlined in "I Can See Clearly Now" traces Dyer's experiences in writing many of his books, because they tended to mirror changes in his own life experience and philosophy.
"I Can See Clearly Now" is written in first person present tense, which is a little unsettling at first. But I soon got used to this style.
First, I have to admit I got a copy a few weeks ago so I could prepare for a podcast I did with Dr. Dyer about his excellent book.
That said, this could be my favorite of his books and the bar was set pretty high already. I've read many of his 40 or so books from "Your Erroneous Zones" to "Wishes Fulfilled" and many in between.
Wayne Dyer has an amazing ability to take 100s of spiritual texts, written from many different disciplines and periods in history, all the way up to contemporary times, and translate them to the modern age. To help people right now deal with the issues they might be facing with jobs, relationships, life, meaning, purpose. Everything is ultimately a spiritual problem.
This ability has been so unique and powerful as to have helped Wayne sells perhaps 100s of millions of his books and teach many people how to live more self-reliant and fulfilling lives. But I always wanted to learn more about the man himself and how his career developed.
In his prior books, Dyer has taken these many messages and often interwoven bits and pieces of his personal story in there to show how he manifested self-reliance in his own life and how how that ultimately transformed into a message that became more and more spiritual as his writing evolved.
But in, "I Can See Clearly Now" he takes a much more autobiographical bent. Each chapter is a story describing situations from his past, Often very traumatic or, at least, upsetting situations and then he has his "I Can See Clearly Now" moment where he describes what he learned. In all the books I had read previously I had never learned so much about him.
