You'll Want to Read This Wonderful Book with a Highlighter, Pen & Paper
If you don't get past the Introduction of this wonderful book, you will still have learned one of the many valuable lessons that it has to offer: "There's Gold Dust in the Air for You!" This nugget of wisdom evolves as Catherine Ponder tells the story of a salesman whose standard response to the "How's business" question was always "Business is wonderful because there's gold dust in the air!" And for him there was. Because he said it was so, each contact resulted in sales and people always remarked of him, "Everything he touches turns to gold."According to Catherine Ponder the basic law of prosperity can be thought of as radiation and attraction: "that what you radiate outward in your thoughts, feelings, mental pictures and words, you attract into your life and affairs." But she goes on to explain that we don't get something for nothing; that we must give before we receive. Further, if you wish to enjoy more prosperity and success in life, you must "boldly and deliberately take hold of your thoughts and feelings and redirect them toward prosperity and success."The tools she gives us to achieve our own prosperity and success are sprinkled liberally throughout the entire book. It is a gold mine of powerful, pointed affirmations and poignant, real life stories that guide inspire and motivate action. Affirmations are a form of command Catherine advises; you make your world with words. "Through verbally affirming or declaring the good you want, rather than continuing to talk about what you don't want, you begin to make firm in the mind and in the invisible ethers the good you desire. As you continue to affirm the desired good, it rushes forth as a visible result." She also suggests writing lists and letters as practical, hands-on means to achieving goals and finding solutions to problems.Here is Catherine Ponder's Three-Step Formula for Prosperity:"First, daily write out your notes of desired good. Second, mentally image the successful results. Third, boldly and deliberately affirm and command those successful results to appear. If you persist daily in following these three simple steps, you will not be able to stop the floodtide of good from overflowing into your life."Some of the other topics covered are work, generating love and good will, financial independence, children, prayer, "genius" powers, intuition, health, self-confidence, and "charm."Get out a highlighter, pen and paper to use as you read, because I guarantee you that you will be taking notes and copying affirmations as you excavate them from Catherine Ponder's "The Dynamic Laws of Prosperity" classic text.- Mary Jo Shaffer, [...]

Excellent Book!
This book is like spiritual ju-jitsu! There are so many techniques she has in this book to strengthen yourself spiritually. It has biblically based references, but those words can be replaced with source, universe (or whatever you want to use). If you're one of those adamantly non-religious types, please don't let that put you off, because the principles in this book are sound.I think I remember reading some reviews where someone complained about the real life examples of demonstrating some of the techniques covered in the book..."Really?". Who in the world would not want evidence the techniques they're learning have worked for others?If you're looking for your silver bullet so-to-speak, you may find it here with so many different techniques which could lead you to prosperity faster. Just remember NOTHING works 100% of the time. However one or more of these techniques will definitely work for anyone who puts the time and effort into them.I'm already in the process of reading the book again, because there's no way all the information could be digested in one reading. This is a book to be studied, not simply read. The only way you couldn't find some useful information in this book, is if you don't read it.

Seeking Properity
As a spiritual person, I really seek to read things that are going to help me make the right decisions. As a wife I take into account that the decisions that I make cannot be done in a vacuum. That being said when I first learned of Catherine Ponder's and her work on creating a more centered life around positive thoughts and knowing that you do deserve happiness made me realize that life was more that just the simple decisions that we believe we are making. That a prosperious life is one filled with hard work, sacrifice, and love.In one of the reviews the author writes that there haven't been any real life applications to Ponder's work since she stopped writing and that the stories she referenced in her work have dried up. Some of the negative reviews have also centered on the fact that people feel that her books promote the idea that you just have to believe that you can prosper and not do any work. While this perception may be apparent for some that was not what I gleaned from her writing and others like her. The books helped me to focus on the fact that I control the choices I make (not necessarily the outcomes but how I react), I can change my perception of a situation into the positive, and the optimism helps to get you further than pessimism. That being said, it is up to us to find the inner strength to act and do the work. Just reading a self-help book isn't going to open you up to living and doing the work to have a "satisfying life". We have to decide to stand up for the things we believe in, set attainable goals (even when others say no way), and believe that we are deserving of the best.After reading the Dynamic Laws of Prosperity I made the decision to go back to school and work on my PhD. The book helped me to remember that completing the goal of finishing school was possible. That I had to stay focus, do the work, and then remember that God would help me in every decision that I will make. I do hope if you read her work that you keep in mind that it is up to you to put the time in. Yes, if you put the time in and really try then good things may happen.

Attract wealth and abundance easily and effortlessly
Wow what a powerful book. It makes you think outside the box and broadens your knowledge. It teaches you simple ways but powerful ways to attract abundance in all areas of your life. I am buying this as gifts for friends and family as it taught me that wealth is not just for the so called chosen ones but in reality for everyone. It gives simple instructions and affirmations to empower the subconscious mind to attract wealth and abundance. Easy read with many light bulb moments.
