What’s it about? Changing your thinking patterns to get the things you want such as a higher income, financial security, or greater enjoyment in living.
What’s the main idea? Success is determined not so much by the size of your brain as it is by the size of your thinking.
How does it accomplish this? In every chapter of the book, the reader will find many practical ideas, techniques, and principles that willl enable them to harness the power of thinking big. Every technique is illustrated by a case history. In this way, the reader will not only figure out what to do, but see exactly how to apply each principle to actual problems and situations.
Give me an example. In the chapter titled “How to Think Big”, an example is used of a successful realtor to illustrate the principle “see what can be, not just what is.” In this example, the realtor has a knack for selling rundown, unattractive property- not by selling it for what it is, but for what it COULD be.
Is the writing style boring or technical? Absolutely not. The writing style reminds me of Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends & Influence People. Also, the many examples make it an interesting read which holds your attention.
Who should get it? Everyone who wants to do better in life! So if you want to live “big” it all starts with thinking that way. Readers who like this book may also be interested in “Finding Happiness in a Frustrating World”. And remember, think BIG!

Actually, one of two great books that has poitively affected my life, this great book by Dr. Schwartz is a must for anyone and everyone who wants more out of life; relationships, fn, business, career growth and of course–more money. The other book that affected my life isMore Wealth without Risk by Charles Givens. This will do for your financial life what Magic of Thinking Big does for personal growth. Both are must reads.

This has got to be the best self-help book ever written! No pie-in-the-sky sweet talk here…just good common sense advice on hundreds of common “thought traps” that people of all ages fall into. Pick the book up and open to ANY page and start reading…you will find yourself nodding your head in agreement with the author, and saying to yourself,”Why didn’t I ever think of things this way?” This book cleared out the cobwebs in my own head over ten years ago, and once you pick it up, you won’t be able to put it down! You’ll also want to share it with any of your friends who aren’t thinking “big enough” in their lives. Unlike most of the other self-help, positive thinking books out there, this book uses “real world” types of examples, not lofty hypothetical discussions that the reader personally can’t relate to. It changed my entire thought process with regards to what I expect out of life, and it will do it for you, too!

David Schwartz’s classic success book “The Magic of Thinking Big” is one of the top ten all time best proactive success books. After you have read it you will begin to refer to the earlier part of your life as “before I read the book.” Even before you finish reading it the first time, you will be a changed person – it’s that incredible. I say first time because you will want to read it again and again. My copy is well read, well read, and well marked. It has been a treasured part of my library and I’ve recommended it to others countless times.
I consider David Schwartz to be one of the earliest “proactive thinkers” in the world. If you haven’t read this book before, get ready for profound wisdom. Schwartz makes it easy to understand that our thoughts are things and have God given powers, far beyond what is commonly taught by others. I can tell you from my own astonishing situations and experiences that, “your success really is most definitely determined by what and how you think.”
Schwartz covers all of the proactive bases: smart thinking, system thinking, futuristic thinking, and positive thinking. If you are truly seeking the kind of success and abundance that makes your life 100% livable – you must read this book. Many of his ideas are found in SUCCESS BOUND, another book built on learning how to live a proactively life that is God centered and fulfilling.
You will find that this exciting book becomes a part of you. Don’t hold back – let it happen. In fact, you should spend 10 to 15 minutes every morning focusing your thoughts on the truths of this book, thereby allowing them to seep deep into your subconscious mind. If you do this I guarantee this wisdom will most assuredly bring you the success and abundance you deserve.
Enjoy the book and your new proactive success life!

I first read the magic of thinking big over 21 years ago when I was invloved in a home based business. At the time, I was struggling, after reading Magic of Thinking Big, my business exploded.Writing my own 30 second commercial was one of the most powerful strategies that I got from this book.I also recommend Business Buy The Bible and Don’t Set Goals (The Old Way) to add to your educational library.
