This was my first read from Bob Proctor after finding his speeches randomly and it was very informative and enjoyable. I would put this book within the same category of Think and Grow Rich. It is one of those ones that is life changing and worth re-reading more than a couple times.
One of my favorite chapters was the one titled Let Go and Let God. I really liked how the book instructed the reader to reframe their own self image and emphasized the power of visualization. Everything we see in the physical world once started as an idea in someone's mind.
Overall, this book was refreshing compared to other more recent titles in the self-help space and I will be suggesting it and re-reading it myself throughout my years.

Bob Proctor has come to sound like a familiar grandpa figure in my head. Having seen him in The Secret movie and read a few of his books, I feel like I know him personally somehow.
This book is your wealth consultant. And Proctor's done a really good job at making it descriptive and engaging. He's going really deep with all his idea explorations and examples. And he does it in a tone that's both educational and also super friendly.
Reading his books feels like talking to the actual person.

Good advice, very preachy (religious)
I'm not a big religion person, so the constant references to Christianity were annoying. But the advice in here is solid. As long as you can be positive and focus on what you want (instead of what you don't want), you'll find success. If you've read "The Secret", you don't need to read this book. But the little anecdotes from the author are fun. The tone is definitely from an older generation, but I feel like the advice is still solid.

Bob Proctor at his best.
Life is controlled and manifested by our thoughts. What we choose to believe fully is what we get. This book is essential reading if you want change your outcomes. Richness is not just money but the intangible wealth of a life lived well. This book can set you on that path.

Great book
Such a great book. Opens up my mind on what's possible. I will be reading this book a couple times a year going forward.

This was my first Bob Proctor book and I’ve already started another. This book is gold when it comes to reframing your mind and your life for abundance.

loved it
I found a lot of new approaches to old ideas. I wish I would’ve found this book decade to go. I would definitely be a lot further in my journey.
