About this item

Explore the wisdom of a New Thought classic and master the game of life!

In the classic best seller The Game of Life and How to Play It, Florence Scovel Shinn helped to define the personal success genre. Written in the new thought tradition, her message is simple yet transformative - we receive back what we put into the world through our actions, energy, and attitudes. Negativity and pessimism are returned in kind, but by switching the script in favor of positive attitudes and affirmations, we are able to manifest success and joy in everything we do.

Life, Shinn tells us, is not a battle of us against the world, but rather a game of giving and receiving. What we give to the world we receive back - whether that be the dark weight of fear and inhibition or the freedom of joy and empowerment.

A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin's Essentials

Though the writer Florence does not Advocate any particular religion, it is very clear to me that she has the ability to interpret scripture in a way that becomes useful in our daily lives and not just Theological awareness!

I didn’t know what to expect reading the first few chapters but found myself glued to the book. I definitely do feel that what you put into the universe, you will receive tenfold. Definitely learning to be more affirmative with my thoughts and actions.

There much that was agreeable about this book and I feel I should read it again soon. I like the interpretation of Scripture but this comming from someone who is very ignorant of Scripture.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Life-Changing Book
Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2022
Florence Shinn was really onto something with her Theo philosophical way of living and trusting in God the Giver - God the Gift wanting us to ask and have faith that in time our prayers will be answered by CHRIST. One must live in the present and be positive with imaging and relationships. She shows us how Jesus wants to be faithful his grace will pour down upon us. This book has changed my entire way of living life for the better.
