Nearly twenty years after they happened, the ATF and FBI assaults on the Branch Davidian residence near Waco, Texas remain the most deadly law enforcement action on American soil. The raid by Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms agents on February 28, 1993, which resulted in the deaths of four ATF agents and six Branch Davidians, precipitated a 51-day siege conducted by the FBI.

Psychotherapist David Ian Rogers believes that we see with our minds and not with our eyes. This is how powerful our thoughts are. They can actually make us blind to reality. "The perfect example is the everyday occurrence of not being able to locate the butter or the cheese in the fridge, even though it is right in front of us." Why does this happen? If our mind thinks something is not there, it will not appear to be there, even when it plainly is there for all to see. It's the Thought that Matters... Literally! shows how our thoughts can move us toward or away from our goals in our everyday lives. Its a case of "I think I can," as in The Little Engine That Could. David Ian Rogers highlights how most mental illnesses, or any other disease between the mind and body, is created and resolved by the thoughts we choose to use to describe our experiences from moment to moment. Find out how to harness this understanding, and to free yourself from emotional and physical problems, using the books simple ideas and concepts.
