The book addresses delicate subjects like why using the law of attraction doesn't work even when you try your hardest.
The book has specifics, of course, but the main idea is that we have a lot of internal problems, and if we continue to focus on activities that will just provide us pleasure on the outside, when will we start to wonder what our true mission is in this little time we have on earth? Therefore, during our time here on Earth, we must transform who we are. The things that keep happening to us are simply the universe's request that we change, unless we learn to be patient, calm, and peaceful within.
