The dictionary de nes a promise as a declaration or assurance that one will do or refrain from doing a particular thing. It is a deliberate act that expresses our willingness and our commitment to ful ll what was promised. It is not a matter of "I will try" or "I will do the best I can." No! A promise is: "I'll do it."

In this wonderful book, Dr. Cruz reveals three promises that have the power to change your life.  ey will free you from the prison of fears, the chains of self-doubt, and the weight of other people's opinions.

Each of the chapters of this book shows two opposite ways to see the world, two decisions with very di erent results:

• You can be guided by your dreams or by your fears.

• You have the option of focusing on what you want or focusing on what stops you from getting what you want.

• It's your choice whether you interpret a setback as a sign that you should just give up on your dreams, or as a lesson you need to learn to help you grow.

• You are free to let other people's opinions and criticism shape your life, or you can decide that you are going to be guided by your own opinions and expectations, regardless of what others might think.
