Long before Rhonda Byrne's The Secret, Louise Hay, Wayne Dyer, Joe Vitale, or even the term Law of Attraction there was Florence Scovel Shinn and The Game of Life.
This is not the first New Thought book but it is certainly one of the most engaging with it's simplicity and enthusiasm. Filled with personal anecdotes and stories from her students and clients she brings the Power of the Mind to life making you believe it's possible for you as well.
"Most people consider life a battle, but it is not a battle, it is a game."
So begins the Florence Scovel Shinn classic, The Game of Life. If life is a game then here are the rules for succeeding at it.
Here's an excerpt
A woman came to me one hot summer's day for a "treatment" for prosperity. She was worn out, dejected and discouraged. She said she possessed just eight dollars in the world. I said, "Good, we'll bless the eight dollars and multiply them as Jesus Christ multiplied the loaves and the fishes," for He taught that every man had the power to bless and to multiply, to heal and to prosper.
She said, "What shall I do next?"
I replied, "Follow intuition. Have you a 'hunch' to do anything, or to go anywhere?" Intuition means, intuition, or to be taught from within. It is man's unerring guide...
The woman replied "I don't know—I seem to have a 'hunch' to go home; I've just enough money for carfare." Her home was in a distant city and was one of lack and limitation, and the reasoning mind (or intellect) would have said "Stay in New York and get work and make some money." I replied, "Then go home—never violate a hunch." I spoke the following words for her "Infinite Spirit open the way for great abundance for — —. She is an irresistible magnet for all that belongs to her by divine right." I told her to repeat it continually also. She left for home immediately. In calling on a woman one day, she linked up with an old friend of her family.
Through this friend, she received thousands of dollars in a most miraculous way. She has said to me often, "Tell people about the woman who came to you with eight dollars and a hunch."
There is always plenty on man's pathway; but it can only be brought into manifestation through desire, faith or the spoken word. Jesus Christ brought out clearly that man must make the first move.
"Ask, and it shall be given you, seek, and ye shall find, knock, and it shall be opened unto you.” (Matthew 77)

Does it work? You betcha, yes!After beginning only the first chapter, I decided to follow suit on one of the anecdotes the author shares --as an example to the methodology at work here as a means to manifestation. Several pages in she references a time when during one of her daily travels she happened to be walking somewhere and stopped and found herself gazing at a lovely rose tree displayed inside the window of a florist. She wished to receive one, and stated and intended it so, exactly as she teaches in the book, and went about her merry way. A few days later, she was hosting Easter, when she received a pre gathering delivery from one of her guests...the rose tree...turns out the guest actually had requested that Easter lilies be sent, but the florist ~mixed~ the order up, and the author ended up with exactly what she had intended.
Well..having read that, I decided to put that exact suggestion into use, intending that I would receive flowers in the next few days-- figuring Start small, with no actual attachment to the outcome.
This afternoon, my husband called, saying he was hitting the grocery store on the way home, did I want anything? Between the time of the call and his arrival home, I remembered the flowers, and thought to myself, oh good, hopefully he will pick up the standard white roses we often grab to put on the table in our kitchen area, but without my prompting.. In he came with all the bags, and no flowers. I wasn't phased, figured, I'd maintain my intention, and that was that.
A minute or two later he went back out to close the garage door or whatever. I, at this point, was busy going through the mail, so had my back to him. When I happened to turn back around to say something, there in my line of sight were, yes, you already guessed it-- flowers! Not the white roses, but instead an exquisite arrangement of red and white roses mixed in with branches of cherry blossoms, and a lovely assortment of beautiful flowers. I was absolutely and utterly stunned, and still am. I don't know about you, but that was all the proof I could possibly need, and will be continuing my studies with Ms Florence Scovel Shinn, and this book!
I do want to add --- I have been avidly and actively reading quite a few of the prayers in Susan Shumsky's books as well--- they are profound in the depth of their power, and I cannot recommend them enough - Instant Healing and Miracle Prayers are my go to's; I have to give additional credit where it is unquestionably due. The prayers are truly healing in removing a multitude of blocks,fears, and other issues in my life, and I'm now a strict believer and dedicated to reading them aloud at least once daily. Some of those prayers deal with healing our mindsets of lack to not feeling we deserve the highest and best things that God/the Universe/our higher selves/whatever higher power you believe in has to offer. And will offer us if we remember to ask, work on our mindsets in thinking and speaking positively, and trusting that no matter what, the outcome will come about as good, if not better than we could ever have expected (white roses vs gorgeous bouquet), with focus, surrender, and persistence in following the steps ... Start simple, go from there, and you can count on seeing the results in the blink of an eye as I did...

The Game of Life The Library of Metaphysical Classics edition by Florence Scovel Shinn Michael Fleming Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
Loved it. I would recommend this book to anyone in search of higher consciousness. Honestly, I didn't choose this book, it chose me which shows you exactly how the higher conscious works. It will guide to exactly what you need at the right time. I say that to say this a few years ago, I don't think I would have been ready for this book or would have grasped it as well as I did now. So in closing if you are reading this comment and planing on purchasing this book, trust me you are here for a reason because nothing is coincidental.
The author’s beliefs and teachings are obviously based on the Bible but she does not use the references in a negative way. I love her teachings which are life changing if followed. I was very disappointed that as I was following the text and listening to the audio, it skipped over every reference to Jesus. You cannot take Jesus out of the teachings of the Bible because it is all inspired by him. Many of the quotes in this book are from Him. If you take him out of this book you are taking out all of the teachings of this author. I don’t know why someone would want to take out the one person who loved everyone on this Earth, no matter what they had done. Even the people that killed Him. Even the person who has edited His name out of the this book. Read for yourself in the actual Bible. Luke 2334
I got The Game of Life and how to play it, we went to Dubai this year in April 27th I kept saying Please give us Guidance and Protection while traveling our Trip was amazing from start to end, really positive book.
I've read a number of books related to the topic of the God power we can all utilize, and I think this book was written in a clear and concise manner that doesn't go too far into religion or too far into philosophy. She is able to convey her points in a sweet spot that should be easy for most people to understand as well as easily to put to use. There are a number of spelling errors, but I think that might be a result of conversion from print to . I will read this book many times over.
I purchased this book from a local bookstore about 25 years ago. At the time I had applied some of the principals and positive things started happening in my life. I remember entering more than one office lottery and winning the top prize twice. I also desperately wanted my own apartment at that time. I applied some of the principals and I got the apartment that I am still living in today. Another miracle had also occurred concerning my apartment desire. I was living with my mother at the time
and her telephone was not working. I was so nervous because I thought the lady from the sales office wouldn't be able to reach me to tell me whether I was approved for the apartment. Note Cell phones were not being used in those days. Anyway, I followed a principle in this book and just let go. My mother was on the phone one day talking to a friend and after she finished the call she went to hang up, the lady from the sales office was on the line. If my mother wasn't on the phone I would have never received that call that day. Read this book and apply the priniciples. It worked for me in the past and I am going to re-read it again to see if some more positive things will flow my way!
The book is dated, but the advice is solid - it's true that "thoughts become things," but you kind of have to meet the Universe/God/Whomever halfway and do the work yourself, too. I think that's what sets this book apart from books like "The Secret" (which reads like garbage, IMO, but to each their own). This is less about wishing and more about attitude - but let me tell you, once you get your mindset right, interesting things will start happening. Read with an open heart and an open mind - and trust!!
