Some times, the author gives interesting advice and interesting new perpectives. 'The Power of Positive Thinking' is very well written, and many of the problems it speaks about is pinned down in a precise and nice way. So I will look for another book. This purchase reminded me that I should always read more about the product before ordering it. I will read customer's reviews more thoroughly from now on.I think that this is probably a very helpful book for Christians who wants to make something more of their faith, or people who would like to become a Christian. But the most given advice is "pray more and pray hard", and have faith in Christ.For me, who was looking for techniques in positive thinking, and who is totally un-interested in religion, this book is not helpful.
If you are not looking for religious answers to positive thinking, this is not the book for you. Picked this up recently based off the description and the 202 reviews averaging four stars. If you are a religious person, this may be up your alley.
It is a must read for those who are going through hard times or depression. It makes you realize that you are an idiot for your current state of mind and instantly changes your thinking habits. My mother read this book from time to time when I was young. I picked up her decades old original 20 years ago and read it every couple years or so when I was depressed. I have loaned my copy to friends who afterward would buy their own copy.
The experience of purchasing this book was a pleasant one. It is very uplifting and gives great advise to everyday life struggles that are happening today. It came in a timely manner. This is an amazing book to life struggles. I have been thoroughly enjoying it. I didn't have to go and track anything down.
It was supposed to arrive the latest on Dec 15th. I never received my order. I wrote to the seller, he never replied.
