This book is a century old yet it is a very practical guide for taking control of the self in today's fast paced & short attention span world. This book is a century old yet it is a very practical guide for taking control of the self in today's fast paced & short attention span world.

This book is the optimist's Bible and a handbook of wisdom for anyone who is in pursuit of self-improvement. It is perhaps the only self-help book you'll ever need.

I'm a firm believer in the Law of Attraction. I've been working at it for years and the process is full of ups and downs, of course. I love reading books on the subject. I've explored handfulls of such books, always hoping that there is something new that will click that I can soak up and use! This one in particular I struggled with.

I've been working at it for years and the process is full of ups and downs, of course. I love reading books on the subject. I've explored handfulls of such books, always hoping that there is something new that will click that I can soak up and use! This one in particular I struggled with. I felt like it rambled and at least half the content was repetitive and forced. I also felt like it was poorly put together, almost like it needed a few rounds of revisions before being put out there for readers. It has a lot of potential and some amazing points to learn from, yet its lacking a few rounds of sanding and polish. I wish I would have read it in paperback with a highlighter. And had I enjoyed it better, rather than feeling like I had to force my way through, then I would have considered buying a paperback copy just so I could get away with marking it up. I found myself wanting to pick it apart and make it better myself. There'd be a sentence or even a paragraph once every five to ten pages that really clicked and stood above. I'd like to highlight those portions so that I could go back through and study them without having to dig around in the rest of the mumbo-jumbo. I few points I did love, was the elaboration through out on living as "I am". I also liked the layered concept of subconscious thinking and the way Christian broke it down. I wasn't a fan of so much talk of detentions. Nor did I buy the man inside stuff. I thought was kind of a weird outlook on the whole concept. Ultimately, because there was the hit and miss stuff that I loved, I think it made up enough to give it a three.

Very rarely in my life do I bail out on a book - perhaps less than 10 times over my lifetime. This is one of those ten. Unstructured, unfocused, and I am no better for the time I invested in it. I encourage a hard pass on this one.

This is such a great book! I experienced many shifts while reading this. Definitely one of the best book about the power of mind and personal development. I would recommend this for everyone who wish to develop their mind and fully master themselves.
