Publisher's summary

Buddha declared that, "The mind is everything. What you think you become." "You become what you think about all day long" is how Ralph Waldo Emerson expressed it. In The Strangest Secret, the only personal development recording ever to receive a Gold Record, Earl Nightingale reveals that the secret is “You become what you think about." Using that principle, you can create an entirely different world than you live in today. Bruce Lee returned to the United States at the age of 18 with $100 in his pocket and the idea he often quoted that "As you think, you become." By the time of his early death a scant 14 years later, he had become a major motion picture icon and the father of mixed martial arts.

Your subconscious mind is responsible for just about every major thing in your life. You don’t have to consciously think about breathing, your heart beating, walking, or how to properly digest and metabolize the food you eat. Without the cooperation of your subconscious - the deep recesses of your inner self - change can be difficult to impossible. You might consciously have tried to lose weight. But if your subconscious mind was fixated on fattening food and how difficult exercise was, the experience was probably a challenge or a dismal failure. Therefore, changing one or more aspects of your life can’t occur until you affect change on your subconscious. In You Become What You Think About: How Your Mind Creates the World You Live In, Vic Johnson will take you step-by-step as he shows you how to harness and use the power of directed thought in your life.

I keep coming back to this book

It won't blow your mind, but it will remind you of what you are doing right and wrong in your life. It's a simple guide to life. I've listened to other books in this category, but none of them motivate me like this one. I love it

The narrator's unusual delivery wasn't my cup of tea the first time around, but the second time listening to the book I started to become quite fond of his unusual way of speaking

Simple, practical applicable

I liked that there were points and key takeaways for every chapter usually evolving a story and learned lesson. I listen to at quick speed because the stories can be a little too long.

Clear, concise, actionable guidance.

Overall great book, quick easy read. Provides a lot of content in a concise format, no repetitive / fluff like many other personal development books. Provides actionable guidance with examples and workbook to practice. Highly recommend

I think it is a must read.

I do need to watch the words that come out of my mouth. Control my thinking and watch who I have around me. This book is so right on with other books I have read but he puts it all together.
