A great book. enjoyed it. So

(5 stars)

A great book. I just stumbled on it and really enjoyed it. It's emphasis on being positive and optimistic on your set vision. Spending more time and contemplating on the possibilities, being a creator than6a competitor are very applicable and ways of thinking for me. Lets me go and get rich... See you all later

This is a step by step scientific experiment

(5 stars)

If it's done in a certain way, then this works. I've seen it work in many ways in my life and in the lives of my friends. I have been applying these principles for 2 decades. It will not fail. This is about experiencing the results in creative ways and being inspired by intuition. It's not just theory. Have these principles summarized and memorized so that we can teach others through our examples of how advancement unfolded and how to make dreams come true in a practical way. Observe your own life become enriched while doing our best to generously enrich people's lives. Teach by your example... Use words if necessary.

Good moral messages, but not science

(2 stars)

I thought it would be an action plan for how to get rich. It offers instead a spiritual guide; positive thinking, affirmations, meditation, prayer, etc. none of what this book purports to be about is science. to my understanding, science is about observing the world and asking questions about the relationships between different phenomena. but almost from the very start the author asks you to take on faith everything that he lays out and to not ask any questions. sorry I just can't do that. if you are religious or spiritual there is a lot to be gained from this book, it reminds you that remaining optimistic, positive, loving yourself and offering gratitude to the universe (or God if you prefer), are more likely to give you what you want out of life, or need. I'm disappointed though that this book offers almost no practical advice on finances or entrepreneurial strategies. the book has a punchy title which, my inner cynic tells me, was designed to catch the eye and sell books and make the author rich.

Rings true even today

(5 stars)

The mind and everything we think has direct implications in our life and what happens in it. I was very surprised to see how something written so long ago still rings true today. Our ability to be successful, or “get rich” is directly related to our vision, our thoughts, our gratitude and how hard we work in that direction. In a modern era where so many people expect, with no positive vision, drive or gratitude, the ideas written in this book are still relevant, and will be for many years to come. A great book to make you think and start doing something about improving your life.
