The Dictionary Of Distinctions PDF Download

This book contains a collection of distinctions between words that you may use on a regular basis. Rather than pure definition, I have attempted to illustrate distinctions through example. This is a collection of distinctions that I have discovered as I have lived my life over the last several years. They have made a difference for me in my understanding of our world. I hope that they will make a profound imprint on your life as well. By reading this book, I hope that you will heighten your depth of communication. You will be able to see in language what you could not see before, create what you could not create before, and most importantly, express what you could not express before. And, the next time you pick up a thesaurus, you might become conscious of the side-effects it may have on your vocabulary. This dictionary may not seem too big. In my defense, may I point out that the Lords Prayer is 66 words, the Gettysburg address is 286 words, and there are 1,322 words in the Declaration of Independence. I wont dare compare this book to these great works. However, I do want to point out the power a few words can have. A few words can only have power if they are chosen wisely (and if they are understood inside the spirit in which they are expressed). I submit to you that you, by reading and understanding this book, will learn how to use words much more wisely. Anthony Robbins says that Nothing in life has any meaning except for the meaning that we give it. I hope that this book provides you the opportunity to generate further and deeper meaning from the words that I have put forth. More importantly, I hope you generate an overall deeper meaning in your entire life, making it alife of Distinction.
