DELIGHTFUL READ
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 book to pick up in times of trouble, a true guiding light
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!!

Excellent, insightful, inspirational
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!
