Overview

Ever wonder why good people end up doing terrible things? ""MISLED?"" explains how our beliefs become a personal ideology that shapes the way we treat ourselves and others. It explains how, from our earliest days, we are conditioned into systems of belief that can dictate the way we live. It also explains how this can be a force for both good and evil. The book also guides the reader to a deeper understanding of how current ideologies, both secular and religious, are having profound effects on the well-being of people and society in general. It specifically addresses the way that such ideologies can lead to moral failure, resulting in self sabotage, hatred, aggression and mistreating others. In response to this challenge, it provides practical guidance to help people evaluate these ideologies as well as practical steps for positive change in order to grow beyond beliefs that no longer lead people to live good and productive lives. At its core, ""MISLED?"" is a call to the reader to take time to understand the ideological influences that are defining and guiding his/her life. It also proposes that as human beings, we all need to develop a personal ideology in order to make it through this adventure called living. In examining our personal ideology, we can face the challenge laid down here, which is to choose and take ownership of a belief system that will help us to live our best life and not lead us into moral failure.
