Miss Shinn was an artist, an author and a metaphysics teacher in New York in the early part of the 20th century. Her books are remarkable and revolutionary in her times. They are profound, full of wisdom and have inspired thousands of people for several decades.
She taught that life is a game and in order to play it well, one must learn to understand the universal laws that govern it. She showed her students and readers how to win health, prosperity and happiness by mastering the game. By sharing real-life stories, she illustrates how positive attitudes and affirmations invariably succeed in making one a winner in life - able to control life‘s conditions and release abundance through knowledge of spiritual law.
Florence Scovel Shinn had the ability to explain her success principles and how they work in an entertaining and easy-to-read style. She can be considered one of last century‘s most popular success teachers and in 1925, Florence decided to publish her first book —The Game of Life and How to Play It“. After unsuccessfully finding a publisher for her work, she published it herself. Her second book, —Your Word is Your Wand“ followed in 1928 and her final book —The Secret Door to Success“ was published in 1940 shortly before her death on October 17, 1940. A fourth book, —The Power of the Spoken Word“ is a compendium of her notes, gathered by one of her students and published posthumously in 1945.

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...

My brother introduced this book to me when I was at my lowest over 10 years ago. He mailed me his copy and I read it from front to back all in one sitting then went back over it again. Since then, my whole family has read it and uses it as a staple. I have also shared it with all my friends. While everyone raved, three of them in particular thank me to this day for having shared it. As a matter of fact, I was just speaking with one about four days ago and she was saying that she had to go back to reading it. Those people had gone through incredibly rough times and all testified that it got to them in the right time. One was a body builder who called me on the day he received it. When he finally got his voice he could only repeat "you don't know what you just did". To see such a physically powerfully man so humbled moved me beyond belief. It took him years to finally share the turmoil he'd faced and it was incredible!
What I love about this book is its use of biblical references. I keep telling people that common biblical sayings can be used in daily life and are not necessarily literal. Concepts such as "digging your ditches" speak to that. The two most important ways in which this book has helped me is in conquering fear and aspiring towards non-resistance.
I believe that, as small as this book is, it needs constant study. My brother and I both concluded that each time we read it, something we believe we've never seen pops out. I think that means that different concepts affect you differently at different times so your learnings are different. I strongly recommend this book and can verify how many copies I have ordered.
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!!
