Book Description

March 2005
"It is your duty to get rich." "Money is power, and you ought to be reasonably ambitious to have it. You ought because you can do more good with it than you could without it. You never knew an exception to it in your life. The person who gets the largest salary can do the most good with the power that is furnished to them by it.

GET AHEAD! BECOME WEALTHY, WELL-LIKED AND FULLFILLED

Acres of Diamonds by Russell Conwell has been universally recognized for almost 100 years as one of, if not the, most inspiring and powerful books ever written for wealth creation. Written in simple, clear, and complete terms it describes how DO-IT-NOW, DO-IT-HERE thinking will directly influence and alter your life. It provides powerful suggestions on how you may influence and better your life by ALTERING your actions and circumstances by what you think and taking common-sense yet insightful action. It also provides practical, proven methods to become wealthy. There are thousands of people who have dramatically benefited from this information. Acres of Diamonds is not an overwhelming, complex treatise of useless theories. It is a concise inspiring and imminently useful audiobook. It will provide the keys for you to change yourself in relation to yourself and external forces.

The ideas in Acres of Diamonds are tested and PROVEN.

A man in Michigan who was on the verge of bankruptcy, having lost heavily in real estate, heard "Acres of Diamonds" and began—as the lecture advises— right at home to rebuild his fortunes. Instead of giving up, he went into the same business again, fought a courageous fight and is now president of the bank and a leading financier of the town.

In Clinton, Massachusetts, a young man just out of prison on probation heard the lecture and wrote Doctor Conwell the next day asking if he thought there was any chance for him, with the stigma of prison attached to him, to make a success of life. Doctor Conwell replied in his usual practical fashion, and further told the man to stay right at home and live down the disgrace. The man acted upon the advice; became an honored member of the community and was a member of Congress for sixteen years.

A man in Ohio who has today, clear of all indebtedness, factories valued at $700,000 (1917 Dollars) was not worth a cent when he heard "Acres of Diamonds." He went from the lecture hall determined to find some diamonds right at home. His present business attests the success of his search.

The man who invented the turn-out switch system for electric cars received his "suggestion" from "Acres of Diamonds."

These are but a few of the thousands upon thousands of similar incidents. In every state in the Union and in many countries abroad are hundreds and hundreds of men and women whose lives have been directly affected by hearing "Acres of Diamonds." Such results show it to be a lecture out of the ordinary. Rarely, if ever, has any other lecture produced such practical effects in such an almost incalculable number of instances. The lecture is the outcome of Doctor Conwell''s practical view of life. He follows his own motto, "Supply a need."

Could you be making more? In a rut?

What will you do knowing the key secrets to finding control in your life, the ability to realize your dreams, obtain wealth, spiritual health, and peace with yourself?

The Transformational Greats’ Acres of Diamonds is made in a light-hearted, joyful, friendly and inspiring style with music. It includes (partial listing) WHERE TO FIND WEALTH: RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW, Riches Surround You Here and Now ; MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT MONEY AND THE POOR AND RICH, You Have No Right to be Poor , There are Some Things More Valuable than Money, The Foundation of Your Faith is Altogether False, The Number of Sympathetic Poor is Very Small: Sympathize with the Rich, Pity the Rich Man’s Son; HOW TO BECOME WEALTHY, You Don’t Need Capital You Need Common Sense, You Can Measure Your Good by What You are Paid, The Ro

5.0 out of 5 stars THE IS SUPERB ! BUY THIS - IT'S A TRUE GIFT !, October 20, 2005

This review is from: Acres of Diamonds: Bonus the Work of Russell Conwell (Audio CD)
I had heard of As a Man Thinketh and decided to get it. I saw a set (7 Motivational Greats) that included As a Man Thinketh and the Acres of Diamonds and 5 others and figured for only a couple of $ more than just As a Man Thinketh if any one of the additional titles was good I couldn't lose. I am reviewing this audiobook from the set I bought.

THEY NEED MORE THAN 5 STARS FOR THIS ONE !
The content of these audiobooks is superb, the music and effects in them are right one, and most of the narration is also very good: although some of it is unusual.

SHORT REVIEW I like them all very much but, I also have played most of these titles for my friends and every one liked them and most wanted to borrow them or asked where I bought them. I think that tells you all you really need to know, but if you want the details read on.

THE BIG REVIEW
I next listened to Acres of Diamonds by Russell Conwell. This audiobook mostly talks about taking action here and now where you are. It covers basic but often overlooked common sense truths about succeeding in your working relationships and in business. Things that made me tap my head and think what an idiot I was to not realize that. I think it is the best audiobook of all of them for business and success. It gives you specific things to do that anyone can do any where and at any time.

The narrator is pretty balanced on Acres of Diamonds being straightforward and entertaining with some humor in it but not as much as in the As a Man Thinketh 2. The music was a kind of gospel style.
The short feature on the disk tells the story of Mr. Conwell and his work and how Acres of Diamonds made many people and towns successful

The last short audiobook was The Work of Russell Conwell which, although not greatly entertaining, was very valuable in proving the concepts of Acres of Diamonds in practice.

THIS IS WELL PUT TOGETHER SET AND I AGREE THEY ARE MOTIVATIONAL GREATS.

After listening to this set I feel that audiobooks are much better than reading for titles like these (inspirational and motivational). This is especially true for sets like this that you will want to listen to again and again just pop them in when you have time. The narrator comes across like a trusted friend, not stiff and formal, and the music and sound effects really put you in the mood.


GET THIS OR THE SET. YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY.
