Book Description
The classic guide to winning at the game of life through our thoughts and our imaginations
Product Description
First published in 1925, this little book has inspired thousands of people around the world to find a sense of purpose and belonging. It remains as relevant today as when it was written, and reveals that life is not a battle but a game - a game of giving and receiving. Whatever we send out into the world will eventually be returned to us, which means that if we give love, we will be loved; but if we hate we will in turn feel hated. Through what we give and receive, we shape our reality.
Discover how your mind and its imaging faculty play a leading role in the game of life. Whatever you imagine or focus upon will sooner or later be experienced as part of your world. This little book will show you how you can change your circumstances, leave your regrets behind and create your own dazzling future.

Format:Paperback
I have had this book for over ten years, I still read it regularly, though written in a simple, conversational style the power of her own experience with these eternal truths is astonishing! The message conveyed is that when we listen to our inner voice we are on the right path. Life is not a struggle, unless you make it so. There is a divine plan for everyone, and thought this may sound crazy, it is clear that we have taken birth and must have a purpose. I bought this book when I was heartbroken over a love affair, and by using the power of right thinking, I got over that, and got the right relationship for me. Good luck to all who buy this gem!!

Format:Paperback
I am constantly delighted by the elegance and grace with which the early and mid-20th century metaphysicians conveyed the eternal truths. People like Ralph Waldo Trine, Katherine Ponder, Raymond Charles Barker, Joseph Murphy and Frederick Bailes are still the best choice to read if you are serious about improving your life. And judging by this wonderful little book., Florence Scovel-Shinn takes pride of place amongst them. With a great economy of words, she makes her point and in simple language explains the benefits of right thinking and how to solve problems. The text is strewn with jewels in the form of uplifting statements and memorable affirmations. Amongst other topics, the laws of prosperity, nonresistance, karma and forgiveness are presented in a fresh way, with clear instructions on how to impress the subconscious. She covers everything that is really important in a book that one can read in a day. Of course, I recommend regular reading of this wonderful manual for living a life of joy.

A superb book - i could hardly put it down!...
It gave me a feeling of deep calm, like I finally understood what I was missing and what I could do to set it right.
Despite the fact that Florence is obviously a very religious lady and uses biblical references a lot - you don't have to be 'religious' to read and appreciate this book - I'm certainly not and I highly recommend it!
