5.0 out of 5 stars Multiplied my joy and my income by applying this book, October 17, 1998

This review is from: The Secret Door to Success (Paperback)

I have recommended this book to clients more than any other title in my 20 years as a clairvoyant. It gives the spiritual foundation to wealth. It helps one realize that God is the source of our supply, not our job, our husband, etc. When the principles of this book are applied both to the letter and the spirit of the law, one's wealth doubles and doubles and doubles. A good companion to this book is: The Dynamic Laws of Prosperity by Catherine Ponder and Goldsmith's Practicing the Presence. I call this one my Prosperity Bible. I have read it at least six times. Each time I read it, I ask my self, "What else am I not doing (recommended by this book), that I could improve?" and then I do that and my wealth increases substantially yet again. Order 20, you'll be giving them away! Linda Schiller-Hanna

5.0 out of 5 stars This Book Has Made Me A Millionaire, February 13, 2001

I urge anyone that is looking for spritual and finacial wealth to read this book. If you've never believed in miracles, you will after reading this book and putting it into action. My first experience brought me $15,000.00 within months, then $18,000.00 the next year. I am now a true millionaire and I owe it to this book.

I dropped out of school at the age of 12 and never went back, but Florence Scovel-Shinn lead me through the "Secret Door To Success". It's a magical land once you get there and the journey is equally as magical.

Many blessings to you on your journey. Never give up and never lose sight of what you want. Always know that what you want is possible and is yours for the taking. Just choose the right door.

This review is from: The Secret Door to Success (Paperback)

Consisting of a series of talks on various topics relating to the achievement of happiness, this book teaches the reader how to triumph over adversity and experience abundance through spiritual law. The author's explanation of Biblical tales and metaphors is especially valuable and insightful and her interpretations are full of common sense and practical wisdom. Her very engaging style and wonderful ability to explain age-old spiritual truth ensure a stimulating and uplifting reading experience. She deals with topics like faith, intuition, inspiration and more, even referring to movies like The Wizard of Oz. The last chapter is about the inner meaning of the fable of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and how it relates to the thought-forms in the subconscious mind of the individual. It's brilliant! Not only are her words powerful and inspiring, but special affirmations are provided to help achieve successful outcomes. The Secret Door is definitely on a par with her classic work The Game Of Life and I strongly recommend it.
