Sample 1

Well, I have quite fond of reading books. In fact, I love to read all types of books such as religious, comic thriller and motivational books. As you ask me to talk about a book that influences me most so I strongly believe that one book named “The Power of Subconscious Mind” has changed my whole life in a positive way.

This is a motivational book which is written by Dr. Joseph Murphy. My husband told me about this book and I decided to read it. Then, I purchased this book from the Amazon store. When I started to read it, then I realize that the real meaning of conscious and subconscious mind and how it works? As I have told you before that this is a motivational book and it is all about different stages of our mind. In this novel, so many short real stories which show that with the help of our subconscious mind anyone can get anything which they want.

One story that attracts me most in this book is about one old lady who is suffering from physical disability and doctors said to her that she would not be able to walk herself in her whole life but she knew about the power of subconscious mind. So, she did not give up. When any person asked her about her illness, then she smiled and replied she is alright and will walk on her feet very soon. After one month she stands properly and walks as well.

Moreover, in this book, there are so many other stories which told me that the will power of our internal mind works for us. This book influences me a lot. Before reading this book, I always thought about the negative and positive aspect of anything. I was less confident as well. However, After reading the stories in this book,  now I am more self-confident as well as I always see the bright side of anything.

I live my life as I want and achieve so many things with the power of the subconscious mind. According to my own perspective,  this book is just like a miracle and everyone should read it once.

So, Here, I would like to talk about a book ‘The secret’ which is written by Rhonda Byrne the famous writer.  This book had changed the way of my thinking and motivates me a lot as well.

Furthermore, I heard about this book around 7-8 years before. I remember, I felt very low at that time and was very disappointed with every thing.

It solved all my problems and ultimately answered my all questions. ‘The secret’ book was based on the belief of law of attraction which claims that thoughts can change a person’s life directly. It doesn’t contain any particular story. Actually, it was based on truths of life and a motivational book. A number of things related to our life like how to get happiness, how to get more money, how to stay healthy only with the law of attraction means our mind thoughts. All the above things are mentioned in this book.

I must say, after reading this book, I google it and found that this book was based on a movie that was released before it. Then, I decided to watch this movie and found everything which I read in the book. And also tried all the tricks in my life mentioned in the book and movie as well.

Really, I got everything changed in my life and got things according to my vision or dreams. For all these changes, I will always be thankful to my brother and felt blessed a lot, having a brother like him who encouraged me. And he told me a secret of life, for life.
