come see me talk more about books over at my twitter!

while it did start to go a bit left-field when he began talking about slaves, and was perhaps a little black-and-white in its approach, this super-quick, relatively easy read has a lot of concepts you can quickly draw from and apply, and has clearly influenced a lot of modern schools of thought. worth the read if only because it's so short and probably won't feel like a time-waster if you don't end up enjoying it.

Came at a good time, your future really depends on your outlook.

Think bright, and even the bad stuff will seem better.

Think dull, and you'll be stuck in a bad mood.

Very common sense but the way he writes about it is still profound.

Some excellent thoughts in this little book, and one that will bear up to repeated readings.

A good, short summary about the power of our thoughts in determining our lives. This is a book I will refer back to once a year.

This was a nice read and reminder, but nothing particularly struck a chord with me. I'd recommend it if this is the first book of its kind you're trying out. Otherwise, it's probably not worth reading

Want to put your thoughts aligned with your dreams? This is a good book for you. You reap whatever you sow is the premise of this book. I particularly liked the ending of this book, "Peace be still".

It has some decent points. However, a good portion of it gives off a high and mighty air that the writer has of himself and his opinions. A short and relatively easy read, but not something I would read again or highly recommend to a friend.
