Product Description
In this compelling film, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer explores the spiritual journey from ambition to meaning. The powerful shift from the ego constructs we are taught early in life by parents and society - which promote an emphasis on achievement and accumulation - are shown in contrast to a life of meaning, focused on serving and giving back. Through the intertwined stories of an overachieving businessman, a mother of two seeking her own expression in the world, and a director trying to make a name for himself, this entertaining film not only inspires, but also teaches us how to create a life of meaning and purpose.

 Ambition To Meaning ReMarketed as The Shift! November 23, 2009
Robin E. Hippler (Rohnert Park, CA USA)
I ordered this film (Ambition To Meaning) from Hay House. I liked it so much I ordered another copy for my friend. My problem with "The Shift" is that it is the same exact film repackaged as a "new film". I too got an email from Hay House promoting this new Wayne Dyer film. When I logged onto the Hay House site and took a look at "The Shift" I realized that it wasn't new. I was disappointed with Hay House for sending me an email presenting this film as new and also because I had already purchased two copies of the original from them. This review is not to stop anyone from purchasing "The Shift". It is very good. I don't have any idea who was responsible for the name change and repackaging but I think it was a dumb decision because it "reeks of corporate greed"! And it reflects badly on everyone who was involved.
 Feel good movie with a REAL message November 17, 2009
M. S. Montgomery (Boise, ID)
My wife and I really enjoyed this movie. Not sure it will win an Oscar, but it should based on message alone. This is an important message that would serve anyone that is willing to listen. Grab some popcorn and give it a look.
 We need more movies like this one!!!!!!!!!! November 4, 2009

This is the best spiritual movie I have ever seen. Each time I watch the movie I learn something new. In the future I hope to see more movies like this one. The Shift is very well done. I plan to watch it several times and encourage my friends and family to watch it too. I would like to thank Wayne Dyer for sharing his insight and wisdom and plus the movie had an interesting story-line.WELL DONE!

I have a lot of Wayne Dyer's CD's and books, and I really enjoyed this movie.
It's great for someone new to Wayne, or someone who's already seen him on TV or read his books.
The Master Messenger Rides Again October 21, 2009

Being a big fan of Wayne Dyer I am certain that my review of this video will be biased. But I must say that I went from a disappointed viewer to caught up in the message by the end of the film.
This video has a few story lines going on at once. All characters in each story are portraying the messages that Dyer is speaking throughout. Kind of an series of examples making the point of his message a little clearer and "real". You will have to pay attention as the flow of these tales doesn't grab you like a traditional movie - at least they did not for me.
I will also admit that in the first 30 minutes, I felt that there were far too many moments that reflected the brilliance (or the not so brilliance) of a late night t.v. infomercial. I believe this was Dyers first attempt at a movie like scenario, and at some points it showed. It is more like a documentary within a made for t.v. movie. A touch unnatural at times.
However, and this is a huge "however"..... Dyers skill in dialogue is always compelling and inspirational. He is a true Master at relaying these ideas. So, when it comes time to deal out the stars, I cannot help but to still award him and the video a full 5. By the end you will have no choice but to allow the message to come into your awareness, as with all of Dyer's material.
If you liked the DVD The Celestine Prophecy, I think you will like this as well. Each is definitely unique unto itself, but I would put them in the same category in relation to delivering inspiration. I was hooked by the end as the negatives and awkwardness were elevated into "character". A nice add to any home library.
