This book was basically launched as a brochure by its author, Claude M. Bristol to promote his experiences, observations and thinking on a sheet on paper but it turned out to be a massive hit.
The reason this book became such a hit was for the same reasons “Science of getting rich” by Walter Wallace became a hit – there is no redundancy in the book.
The book immediately gets to the point and talks about the same thing that its contemporary books teach – Whatever you think makes a difference in your life.
For ages since the advent of human civilization man has been trying to take control of his thoughts but could never found achieve it.
However, Dale Carnegie in his book, “How to stop worrying and start living” mentions a very interesting limitation of human mind that would help anyone in controlling his mind – it says that the human mind can only think of one thing at a time and the appearance of a person thinking multiple things at a time is an illusion as thoughts change from one to another very frequently and alternately.
Coming back to the book. The book has been a heavy influence on the documentary “The Secret” and talks about the Law of Attraction. Whatever thoughts you are thinking are creating realities for your life and the thoughts that you think more frequently becomes true more rapidly. Wrong thoughts will lead to wrong results. The author believes that there is an unknown power and an unknown substance 'ether', which helps the human mind in materialising the thoughts and doesn’t care about the extent to which thoughts are thought upon.
Whatever you will think will come true irrespective of whether you want that to happen or not.
There have been times when I have felt completely lost and didn’t feel like doing anything, at those times I immediately turn myself towards this book or its audiobook that is ubiquitously found on the internet and within days, sometimes hours, I start getting results.
Recently one thing happened with me which further instilled my beliefs on the theories of the book. I had booked an expensive flight long ago and then there was a change of plans so I couldn’t go to the place I had destined to go previously. I wanted to cancel the flights but they were offering me no money in case of cancellation. I decided to not cancel the flight. But at the back of my mind, I was worried about the money that I had invested into it which was going wasted on something that I didn’t use. I used the methods taught in this book and four hours before the flight I called the airlines and told them my problem and to my surprise, they said they will refund all my money immediately. I didn’t have to convince them a lot to do that. It just happened.
The problem with most people is that they are very sceptical when it comes to following the things mentioned in a book. That is why the author mentions that everything told in the book has to be taken on faith and once the methods will start working, your beliefs in them will also start increasing.
The language of the book is very simple and even a layman and a non-reader can read it, understand it and benefit from it. This book is not a book that should be read once and then thrown away. This is a book that needs to be read again and again till one start imbibing its methods in his behaviour.
The book won’t appeal to people who are not very open-minded and are not very ambitious. This book works miracle for those who take life as it goes and are ready to do whatever it takes to become successful.
I would highly suggest a reading of this book as it would take only two hours of your time and you can finish it very fast. Do give it a try.

Timeless
A quick read. A precursor to “The Secret”? Like Dale Carnegie’s “How to Win Friends”, this book is as true today as it was when it was written decades ago.

A Powerful Short Read
T.N.T. presents the law of attraction in a bite sized and focused formed. Unlike The Secret which can be criticized for its head in the clouds mentality, T.N.T gets straight to the point by pointing the reader in the right direction.
The familiar points of faith, belief etc are there but with an attachment to an old school method that stands the test of time. Add this book to your arsenal of personal development books as you arm yourself on your journey to success.

Believe it
This book is fabulous. I highly recommend to anyone who self doubts and puts them selves down constantly. It is also for dreamers who don't believe they will succeed. Please listen to this man. He is a genius.

While it’s a short book. The contents of the book are the precursor to all of the great self development works of today and most likely the future. Because all good mindset training to help you thrive in life will always be evergreen and foundational

This book is terrific and Bob Choat does a great job at updating it for todays readers. It is short and to the point and packs a powerful Punch!! It really is all powerful and IT IS ALL IN YOUR MIND! IT STARTS WITH YOUR MIND AND ENDS WITH YOUR MIND! I read this book over and over and highlight the most important parts, which is most of it. If your looking to get started reading books about changing your mindset, start here. This is the kind of book you don't just read once. As the author says 'I know it, I believe it and it's so!!!!! Happy reading

It's a great personal development book. It's short, to the point and action oriented. It will move you, but as it recommends, you will need to repeat and reread until its knowledge becomes second nature. Being a fan of this genre, I recognize that the recent works have copied some of the knowledge of this book and its fine. If you need a push, this is the book for you. Reread as often as possible. I know I will.

I love it.
Great format; leaves previous formats in the dust in so many ways! I could not ask or beg for a beer version of TNT: It Rocks The Earth by Claude M. Bristol. It captures the spirit and power of the pamphlet.

A brilliant little book. This stuff really works, this is but one way of using a great power we have on our side. Timeless information with benefit to be had in reading and applying techniques. I cannot promote this more.

A short, yet very powerful book.
A short, yet very powerful book. Breaks it down very nicely. Good precursor to the book "Magic of Believing". Time for some action now!!
