THE ONLY SUCCESS BOOK YOU'LL EVER NEED!
Read this book and THINK, really think and what you need to do to change your life will be as plain as the nose on your face! It is just plain old common sense, but it forces us to do that which most people run away from,it forces us to THINK.

Fun and Motivating
I love old books brought back to life, and I really did like this one. The mysterious 'Master' is a good character, and he makes goal setting and achievement sound fun and exciting.

It seems, after reading it a few times, that a good arena for applying this method would be the stock market. The narrator's foil character, a man who was broke and sickly before meeting 'The Master', sprang to life and began working passionately toward building a fortune in the stock market after he learned the lessons.

One thing you should note, however, is the date of the first printing: 1929. Beware that this book was written at the time of maximum irrational exuberance for wealth-building.

LOVED this inspiring book!
This book truly will give you the understanding to create your own success, however you define it. I plan to read it many times, right along with Wattles' Financial Success--which you should read if you feel that having riches is somehow ungodly, or if you think one must be competitive to be successful. In short, buy this book--don't borrow it! The world will be a better place if everyone read and understood the principles behind these two books!
