PLEASE READ THIS REVIEW 2008-07-25
Amazing. Stunning. So sensational. So true. Such a lttle book.
Yes, The Game of Life and How to Play It is all these things, but the latter is probably the most important and indeed the most intriguing. How can so much wisdom about ultimately getting anything you want in life, be squeezed into a book with under 90 pages? I'm not quite sure, but it definately works to its advantage. Because of this, I was able to easily read it in one sitting and have the opportunity to easily do so again and again and again. And I plan to. It was that good.
So to the book itself. When I was searching for self-help books, I came across this one, and, the title was the first I thought about. I came to the conclusion that it was a book that taught you about general life skills. IT GOES BEYOND THAT.
Florence Scovel Shinn explains that disease, lack, misfortune, unhappiness, financial difficulties - all the things we dread in life, are because of subtle suggestions impressed upon the subconscious mind in every day life. But changing these habits is easier than anyone could ever imagine. By simply saying aloud every morning when you wake and at night before you sleep that you believe (or have faith) that you are easily going to achieve the things you want to and trust the god within (your superconscious) to give you a definate lead (a hunch that will lead you to what you want). She explains how big a role karma plays in getting what you want and the importance of receiving things aswell as giving things to others. She also advises you act as though you've already got what you want in order for your subconscious to believe you are capable of getting it.
Although these techniques aren't anything new, Shinn's way of writing makes it interesting and the fact that the length of it doesn't even reach the 100 page mark, means you won't have any excuse for not getting time to read it!
So what makes it so successful? For me it was the fact that these techniques were so effective, yet she didn't go into much detail - she kept it simple by, literally every two pages, giving incredible real life examples relating to the wonders she talks of throughout the book.
So please don't listen to me any more, I won't go on. Get your hands on this book, read it with interest and curiosity, and then hopefully you'll experience true wonder, awe, and amazement towards the thought that you can achieve and even get, anything you want in life.
Thanks.

A Constant Companion 2008-07-04
"The Game of Life" has been a constant companion for all of my adult life. I have endured many changes in packaging - some of them better than others. One of the first tattered copies I owned had no cover at all, pages yellowing and torn, but Florence's message still shone bright. I cannot count how many of these books I have purchased and given away. I have given them to curious strangers on the subway, and even to sour friends whom I knew would never read them. But, I know that "The Game of Life" has its own mysterious way of finding its way into appreciative hands - in just the same way that it found me, over twenty years ago. I have never read or owned another book so honest, inspiring, and concise. This is the type of book that you can open up on any page, on any given day, and receive just the perfect message. I can only hope that my book has a mere glimmer of its magic. Florence Scovel Shinn has influenced much of my thinking, and informed the basis for my own writing. I wish I could have met her and I owe her many thanks!
