The problem is that the author does use factually incorrect information, but it wouldn't stop me from learning the good lessons he has to impart. I believe his decision to claim he was mentored by a very successful individual, which is questioned and disputed, is part of creative license that was okay in his times but is considered unethical in our times.
However, this book gives sound advice on self-reflection and controlling your thoughts. Mindset is one of the crucial factors of long-term success. The author encourages readers to take a hard look at themselves. What's more, he disparages and rejects get-rich-quick schemes, so it's perplexing to me that people bash this book because they assume Hill encourages people to get rich without doing anything. His real vision is opposite to these misconceptions. He emphasizes hard work and taking one's time.
And just a reminder: you don't have to like a person to learn from them, and you definitely don't have to accept everything they say as effective advice. Maybe, one or two lessons from him would be enough for you to improve your situation.

Honestly was a bit boring for me… I’ve read the power of the subconscious mind by Joseph Murphy and it’s kind the same premise. It’s a great self help book for an abundance mindset. Just not a genre I prefer .

I feel like the book had way too much text but too little actual useful information. Some chapters felt like reading a book about postive mindset or how to deal with personal issues apart from finance. I thought this book contains useful information about finance instead of random stories for the 50th time. When I was reaching the sexual chapter I knew it was time to close the book and put it away. I would rather recommend reading a summary of this book than to buy it and waste your time.

I don’t know why this book is as highly regarded as it is. The first part of it starts off slow telling you in cryptic allusions of all the things it plans to tech you in the chapters to come. Then it gives some pretty solid advice about the power of positive thinking before diving headfirst into pseudoscience. I’m walking away from it with a piqued curiosity for what retraining my subconscious mind could do for me in attaining success, but also with some disappointment. The book’s, shall we just say, unique terminology comes off as a basket full of made up words. The concepts behind these words aren’t well Enough explained before being overused. And, sorry, but when you don’t allow your book speak in concrete terms, you don’t get a free pass to merely suggest that everyone simply needs to reread it periodically to fully grasp its concepts.
