OSM, Please Read This Book!

After hearing Brain Tracy speak about Orison Swett Marden and about this book specifically I had to check it out. I'll make this short, this is a BIG book, but every-single-paragraph has buckets of gold nuggets. Please read it if you're a fan of Think and Grow Rich or if you're struggling in any area of your life. This book can change your life! Joey McGirr President, [...].

One of the best books on success

One president said that this book should be given to every child at school, and right he was. I wish this was given to me when I was a kid. Highly recommended, this book is Anthony Robbins á la 1800's. Muy bueno.

"The epitome of success"

Orison Swett Marden was the original editor-in-chief of the now defunct "Success" magazine. In fact, he probably rolled over in his grave when the magazine went out of publication. It was a time of mourning for me. In fact, I was just in the process of renewing my subscription when I found out..."Success" was no longer successful (how ironic). This set of books is excellent. Most of the writing is examples of successful people from the past and present (1911). This type of motivational writing tends to get repetitive, however, there is a lot of advise tucked carefully between the many examples given. It was a very different world when the author wrote this book, but as I read it I noticed, the more things change, the more they stay the same. One difference I like is the chivalry and honesty exhibited from the time period. Even the highest standards of decency today are a far cry from that time. It was a lot of fun reading some of the examples from that era and knowing they were current events. These books are well worth the read, if you can find them.

PTTF

This book is the greatest book that I have ever read next to the Bible. It is in my opinion the premiere self help of all times. After reading this book your life will never be the same. Marden is able to capture the essence of life, self development and true success. If you have read other self help books you will see how many modern day writers, used much of his material to develop their thoughts and philosophy.Although this book was written in the early 20th century, its message is truly timeless.
