In this beautiful book Ernest Holmes explains why our thoughts have got power and it instructs the readers on how they can change their lives by changing their thinking. It contains some ideas on life and spiritual understanding. It tells the reader how spirituality and science have merged and what it actually means for you. It has step by step instructions on how you can positively change your life with the help of your mind. It thoroughly explains that no one can force a new bilief upon another and no one has the right to do so. It tells the reader that the ability to control experiences and have them result in happiness, prosperity and health lies in one's own mind and one can make use of it.

I felt unfufilled from this novel. I didn't feel as though it gave me the tools or direction that I was expecting. I think that there wasn't enough emphasis on what you were able to do out of life. I found that other novels were left to fill the void that was caused due to this novel. I don't recommend this book due to that factor. This seems to be a mock of The Secret but it does a poor job in giving the proper explainations and details.

I was actually given this book. I think this book did change my life...it took several hours from it! Really an truly this book is too old fashioned. Seriously, there was a reference to "trying new things" and "getting married" in the book. I was surprised it didn't offer "change your brand of underwear" in a book called "change your life." I really believe you can only "change your life" by living in reality. This would mean you change where your money (or lack thereof) is going, this would mean you change how you treat people. Its not about what others do to you, but how you treat others. In short, if you read this review, you got more than by reading the book. :)

I was given this book by a friend who said it was a good read. However, I believe that the concept of this book is pretty much common sense. Of course we can change our lives through our thought process but in today’s society, it makes it really hard to believe. No one would complain if everything in this world was available to everyone, but it is not. I understand that one of the prime ideas is to live without envy and if we could all live that way, we would be less upset about what we have. And if that were the case, then we wouldn’t really have that much to complain about. Unfortunately, everyone lives with some sort of envy and it is not always easy to try and let it go when you have to deal with seeing it in your everyday life. I believe this book would be helpful if today’s society was not so condescending. But maybe that is the point of the book, to rise above. But personally, I just didn’t get it.

I didn't like this book simply because of how one of the basic foundations of the book is being able to change your life by thinking. If that were true, I would be anything I wanted but that's not the case because I'm not what I want to be - take my word for it. I also don't like this book because it says that everything that you need to change your life is already in you. This book to me kind of reminds me of the concept "opium for the masses" where you are taught to be happy with what you have and not with what you can potentially have with a little bit of work. I'm more of a realist so that could be a reason why I don't like this book but each to their own. I would personally not recommend this book because it's not really solid and it's the kind of quick solution that would try to get you to buy the book.
