"you alone are responsible for yourself"
I've been reading self-help books since I was a kid, and this small book, which is the size of my hand and the width of my little finger, is a distillation of the best of all of them; pearls of wisdom, extracted from the ocean of spiritual truth.
It is not written in Paramahansa Yogananda's usual rich style, and in his wisdom, he has obviously kept this very abreviated and concise for a reason. There are no cute stories and "fillers" to illustrate his points, and at times his directness could be labeled "tough love"."Attunement with the Divine Will is the most important factor in attracting success"
The main theme of the book is being in harmony with the Divine Will, saying that it is man's highest obligation.
If one follows the principles in this book, the guidelines for meditation (pg. 28), and eliminating fear, "Fear Exhausts Life Energy" (pg. 11), are essentials; freedom, happiness, and success will follow.
In "The Need for Self-Analysis" (pg. 16), Yogananda describes another essential, which is finding one's mission in life, saying that though the ultimate purpose is to return to God, "...you also have a task to perform in the outer world", and he cautions (on pg.30) that the things one may "want", but actually not "need", could be detering you from that objective.
This pocket-sized book is a treasure, powerful, and amazingly helpful.

Divine Spiritual Truth. A MUST Read!
Paramahansa Yogananda brings humanity a treasure of wisdom sharing exactly how to align yourself with the essence you hold within, that of God, Divine Source, who IS at all times working with you, in you, and as you.
Yogananda's work has had a tremendous influence on my life, and this book will remind you that you do have the capacity to co-create anything your heart desires, and your heart is the ticket to manifesting, and trusting that what you desire you do deserve to receive. I cannot recommend this book enough if you want to shed all false and fearful layers of ego, as you were not born with them, and to connect to the joy that you can create at any moment, once your focus is in alignment with God, who is ALWAYS with you. It is important to remember that your life calling is what you hold with the deepest joy and passion in your life. This book will help you remember. Highly recommended from my heart, Barbara Rose, author or 'Individual Power' and

excellent
If all the positive thinking self help books and books on success were to be condensed into one, it would probably be this one.
