There is truly a science to achieving success and this awesome book illuminated a number of key principles which I have started using in every area of my life.

It doesn't read like a novel; you're not necessary going to be whisked away to far away lands with rich characters...but, you do learn how to use PROVEN principles and how to apply your passionate energy and imagination to define what success is for you and then how to go about achieving that experience in life. The bonus is that the author explains complex concepts in a very down-to-earth and practical way so the information is easy to understand and retain.

When I first started reading the book, I would take a chapter per week and read, re-read and re-read again all the rich information until I felt that I could teach it to someone else. I wouldn't read ahead until I was certain I understood the principles highlighted in each chapter and how I could use it in my life to experience success. Now, almost 2 years later, I use the book to refresh my memory and to keep me inspired as I continue to grow my business doing what I love to do...nurturing and guiding artists in unleashing their creative wisdom!

If you are serious about experiencing a life of bliss, filled with emotional, spiritual, and financial rewards this book will guide the way.

This book has changed my life! For years I have been working on "changing my stories", but it wasn't until reading about the power of paradigms in The Science of Success that I finally understood this life changing concept. I had to learn that there is no such thing as competition. For a massage therapist in a small city saturated with massage therapists that is a very important paradigm to change. As soon as I did that and learned to be grateful for my gifts and my clients, my business began to grow by leaps and bounds! In just a few months of putting the concepts I learned in this amazing book to work, my fledgling massage business doubled!

It's been almost a year since I first read the book. I have now read it several times, and each time something new catches my eye or my understanding deepens. My husband has read it now, as well. As a result of putting these concepts we learned to practice, we have attracted new businesses, family vacations paid for by work, new home, new car, and new amazing friends into our lives!

The concepts in this book are tried and true. They are timeless and worth repeating over and over again; this could explain the reason you will see similar concepts taught by other success coaches in other books. The thing to remember, especially when learning about success is that there will always be someone offering the same or similar thing you offer, and what speaks to one person may not speak to the next. That is why this book is so amazing to me. Sure there are others who may say something similar, but this one spoke to me. It was a fun, easy & quick read which is important for a busy mom/wife/small business owner! Most importantly the principles taught in the book were easy to understand and then put into practice, thus rendering quick results! Quick ROI is exactly what every successful person needs!

I received James Ray's book for Christmas, two years ago. Since that time it has become a trusted friend. It has changed my life. I have read self-help books for over 40 years. This one has done more for me than all the others put together. It is simple to understand but contains all the great truths in a systematic plan that anyone can understand. James has written it in a clear, concise, logical manner. His understanding and grasp of the success fundamentals gives you the ability to see and believe it will work for you. It will do wonders for you. Get the book and let it do its magic.

Simple, time tested universal principles take on a humanly spiritual element as James shares his personal stories and feelings on attaining your life goals and dreams through proven principles. You owe it to yourself to step out of your comfort zone . . . and stop living a life of mediocrity, and step up to live a life of prosperity and total abundance. James teaches and shares in this book exactly what he talks and walks every day of his life. No more forcing your life success. Just let go and allow a sense of peace to evelope you as you begin to transform your life to exactly where it should be . . . successful, abundant and in complete synchronicity with universal law. James is the best at what he teaches because he expresses it through his heart and soul. So, go on and order this book and bring James into your life with this powerful reading as you simply allow the natural forces of the universe to transform your life. You'll be grateful you did . . . then sign up for James' Science of Success Seminar and experience the dynamism of this man in person. WOW!

I saw James Ray live as a guest speaker at a conference I attended. I thought he did a fabulous job. Very entertaining and his message was right on with a lot of entertaining stories.

I wish that I could tell you the same thing about his book. I did like that the end of each chapter had a nice summary. Unfortunately most of the text borrows heavily from other success literature. It is a rather dry read with few memorable examples.

For someone new to the success area, this does give you a lot of information. However if you've read the popular books that are out there - this will likely serve as a re-hash of their concepts.

James Ray has written a very concise, easy to follow and implement "how-to" on making positive changes in your life. Truth is universal, and James explains it in easy to read terms that really allowed me to quickly put into play the laws of success. These are the laws EVERYONE follows to be successful whether they are aware of it or not, and by breaking down what could be overwhelming, into 7 basic laws and explaining how and why each work, I was able to attract success to me faster than I could ever have imagined. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is looking to accelerate their growth both personally and professionally.

I have been reading a lot of self help success books right now and I keep coming back and re-reading this one. This book can truly change your life. The things taught in this book are not ideas that James made up himself, they are universal truths. He has just captured them all together and presented them in this easy to follow format. Along with Steve Covey's 7 Habits and Norman Peales Power of Positive Thinking this book belongs on everyones bookshelf. I highly recommend that everyone read this book.

Get real everybody. This guy is being investigated for murder due to his greed and incompetence in the sweat lodge deaths.

If you've read Tony Robbins, you've read James Arthur Ray. And that's NOT a slam on Tony. Mr. Ray, in my opinion "borrowed" most of the concepts in this book from other writers, which would have been okay if he'd at least PRESENTED them in an original way. But, though I tried, I couldn't find a single orginal thought here. Thus the one star rating.

This book lays down the proven, timeless principles needed for massive success in any area of your life. The seven "Super Laws" are discussed in detail and James shares how to start working WITHIN the laws in your everday life. I love the step by step simple format because this is a book that you can read, digest and ACT with to begin reaching your goals. If you want a "short-cut" to your dreams....READ THIS BOOK! Thanks James for your great insight and practical how to style.
