Thanks for the wonderful thread Amit.

Here's my all time favorite. This book influenced the new thought movement and many other books followed the line. A must read.



Mind is the Master power that moulds and makes,
And Man is Mind, and evermore he takes
The tool of Thought, and, shaping what he wills,
Brings forth a thousand joys, a thousand ills: —
He thinks in secret, and it comes to pass:
Environment is but his looking-glass.

He succeeds finally and the book goes onto various parts, where after his success he meets up with 2 other seagulls who are in the same league as himself and then how he mentors other seagulls....

YOU CAN HEAL YOUR LIFE
Author: Louise L. Hay

http://www.flipkart.com/you-can-heal-your-life/p/itmdyegagagrktwu



You Can Heal Your Life shows the readers how they can transform their lives by gradually changing their perspectives. The author says that the thoughts and beliefs of a person have more power than they realize.

A person’s beliefs and attitude are mostly shaped during their childhood. The adult perspective is a product of the way their parents taught them to think, social norms, peer attitudes and other external factors. Each thought is an affirmation, whether it is positive or negative. Each affirmation carries its own energy and influences the person’s life. If a person thinks that life has made them a victim of circumstances, then, the author says that they are making sure they continue to be victims.

Negative thoughts tend to attract the very things that a person wants to avoid. Health, prosperity, happiness, security, all these can be influenced by the way a person thinks. This book shows how to make those thoughts positive. It gives a set of positive affirmations that the reader can post in various places, to inspire themselves to remain positive.

The author feels that if a person looks at the positive side of every aspect of life, they start attracting more positives to themselves. She emphasizes that positive affirmations, accepting oneself as they are, looking for the positives in each situation, and being more cheerful can transform a person and the lives of those around them.

You Can Heal Your Life says that the power to heal any adverse situation in a person’s life is in their own hands. They have more power over their lives than they realize, and the cure is simple.

The book was first published in 1984 and was second on the New York Times bestsellers list. The book has sold over 50 million copies worldwide and has been translated into 30 languages.


My View: Amazing book for affirmations.Daily affirmation recitation reduces mind of negativity and releases toxins from a negative mind.

The Secret
Author: Rhonda Byrne

http://www.flipkart.com/the-secret/...cret&ref=8bd295d2-f5d8-4d57-ba30-b5bc82b42fb6



The Secret begins with Byrne introducing the concept of the law of attraction. Byrne maintains that the universe emits a certain frequency which people can attract towards themselves. She stresses that positive thinking is a powerful entity which draws in energy in the same frequency range. In other words, by always engaging in positive thinking, Byrne claims that people will attract back positivity.The author states that positive thinking will always attract back positivity from the universe.

The Secret introduces a three-step creative process to help people turn their dreams into reality. The process involves Asking, Believing, and Receiving, which is also a concept mentioned in the Holy Bible. Along with the creative process, The Secret stresses the importance of feeling gratitude and visualizing in order to help one’s desires manifest. Byrne recommends to readers that they list everything that they feel grateful for, and along the way, this will only attract more positivity and lift the reader to a higher frequency. By using visualization, the mind becomes more focused on clearly communicating with the universe.

The chapters included in the book demonstrate to readers how the law of attraction can be used and what can be done to receive those desired results in areas such as wealth and relationships. The Secret was featured twice on The Oprah Winfrey Show. It also remained on the New York Times Bestseller list for 146 weeks. On January 15, 2009, an article was published in Forbes stating that the book and film had generated 300 million dollars in revenue. Following the release of the book, it was turned into a documentary film and DVD.


My View: The Secret has a simple yet the most profound of all philosophies of life" Ask ,believe and manifest and it's given by the Universe"
I also recommend the DVD of the Secret.Worth watching many times for inspiration.

Feel the fear...... chk the link :

this is an one hour audio book link.


An Excerpt from Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway by Susan Jefffers

Susan Jeffers shares ideas and practices to help us cope with our fears. Here are some practices to nurture fearlessness.

"I know most people resist the fact that constant practice is required, or we would all be positive thinkers. It might help to remember that your shower, your makeup, and your shave also don't last, yet you don't have any resistance to starting your day with showering, shaving, or putting on new makeup. These are refreshing activities — and so is positive thinking. In fact, it feels wonderful!

"So here you are, a blob of negativity. How do you even begin to turn around those miserable thoughts that take away your power? You begin by doing the same thing you would do if your body were out of shape. You create an exercise program — in this case, to retrain your mind. To do so, you must take action.

"Before giving you a suggested action plan, I recommend that you have on hand the following to make your daily routine more efficient and certainly more pleasurable:

"1. A small audiocassette or CD player, iPod, or all of the above . . . whatever suits you best for 'portable' listening.

"2. Positive audiotapes and CDs. We are so fortunate in today's world to have such an array of audio material available to us for creating a positive view of life. These include affirmation, relaxation, meditation, motivation, visualization, and inspirational tapes and CDs. Also, many uplifting books are now available in audio format. Once you realize the benefits you'll receive from such listening material you will take joy in building an extensive audio library.

"3. Positive books that inspire and motivate. I suggest that you buy your books instead of borrowing them from the library. The reason for this is that you will want to underline and write in the books and reread them over and over again. You will want to 'own' these books in every sense of the word. They provide an incredible support system that is there for you at all times. You might feel that buying these books and audios is a costly proposition — and you're right. Yet I can't think of a better investment to help you create a better life. If money is a problem, start slowly. The important thing is: BEGIN!

"4. Index cards or Post-it notes.

"5. Positive quotes. Find those that really touch you in some way. Some very effective quotes for me are:

" 'Ships in harbor are safe, but that's not what ships are built for.' — John Shedd

" 'The best way out is always through.' — Helen Keller

" 'I'm not a failure if I don't make it . . . I'm a success because I tried.' — Unknown

" 'Considering how dangerous everything is, nothing is really very frightening!' — Gertrude Stein

And how about:

" 'Feel the fear . . . and do it anyway!' — Susan Jeffers

"Write each quote on an individual index card or Post-it. Then put them all over the place — on your mirrors, your desk, the refrigerator door, in your car, your diary, and so on. You may want to put one quote that really 'speaks' to you on many cards, so that wherever you turn, it's there as a reminder.

"If you are artistic, make a decorative poster with your quotes to hang on your wall. Or buy one of those wonderful posters with inspirational sayings on them and use it to decorate your wall.

"You will find that your quotes will change often as you move ahead with your life. Different ideas are meaningful at different times. Just keep changing the quotes. Be creative; try to bring some lightness to the task. As humorist Jan Marshall said, 'Not a shred of evidence exists that life is serious!' Go overboard and be outrageous until friends ask you what's going on. Really have fun with this.
