This book teaches principles that work IF we work them...IF we use them. Most important is to listen to this book being read over and over and over AND READ IT OVER AND OVER...PREFERABLY ALOUD - TO OURSELVES, in the same way we learned our spelling lessons or our multiplication tables until these truths become engraved in our Subconscious minds. UNTIL WE FIND OURSELVES LIVING THEM OUT AUTOMATICALLY, AND EXPERIENCING THE DELIGHTFUL OUTCOMES. It's especially effective to listen to it as we are drifting into sleep! I like the book b/c Dr Murphy supports.his statements with Bible Scriptures. In my opinion, his most BASIC book is The Power of Your Subconscious Mind.
