5.0 out of 5 stars Become Master Of Your Thoughts, December 28, 2007
By 
This short book is incredible. The main message in this book is that our thoughts are like a little fire, like a match. If we entertain them, then that is like adding fuel and oxygen to them, and they grow into big flames. If the thought was good for you, now you have a warmness from the fire by your actions. This is the good part. If however, the thoughts are bad for you, and you entertain them, that is like a fire that is burning your house down. We must become a master of our thoughts before this happens. Too many times, we see people complaining of the consequences of their own thoughts. They haven't learned to master them.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Great Little Book, October 15, 2007
This is a nice little bit of philosophy. The author brings together a number of ideas from other sources, basically premised on the law of attraction. But, he also discusses "generativity" or enjoying life in your later years.

The wording is a bit complex, suited for a scientific/engineering mind, but is not complex in vocabulary just phrasing. The way thoughts are organized make it less accessible to non-detail oriented people. But, the way thoughts are organized also allows for clarifying very complicated ideas in ways that come across as deeply profound.

It's definitely worth reading. If you are a follower of the law of attraction, and Eastern Thought (but of Western Heritage), his points are useful (not to give up ALL control of your life to other forces). He advocates a balanced approach of contemplation and action. Well done, clear and insightful.

1.0 out of 5 stars Trine, yes. This book, no., September 28, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I'm a fan of Trine, having read the classic "In Tune with the Infinite" twice (I highly recommend it) and a couple of his other books. This slim 32-page book though sounded very familiar and for good reason--it's merely an excerpt from one of Trine's longer books and repackaged here as if it's a new and original work. Stay away.
