"The Worlds Greatest Secret"

[Judo Tom]

has anyone here read the book or any other og mandino book.

someone recently got me this as a gift and I started reading it and will see if it helps out in any way.. im not in sales btw

for those who have no idea what im talking about it is kinda a self help type book. it has 10 'scrolls' each scroll is about 2 pages of text which illustrates an important principle that you are suppose to start acting out in your daily life.

you read the scroll 3x a day once just as you wake once after lunch and then right before bed you read it out loud.

haven't read that book or have any idea about it's message but the way Tom describes the fashion in which the book suggests learning the contents reminds me of how monks learn extensive religious works and also to some extent how children are taught, some call it repetition for emphasis, others call it brainwashing, sounds interesting regardless

If the scrolls are only 2 pages, why don't you type them here. That would count for saying them once out loud I would think.

Damn bro, share yo shit.

I watch Lost, which is basically like reading a mystery/thriller one sentence a week.

yeah thats the whole idea.. you keep repeating the info so it soaks into your head. at first it just gives you something to conciously focus on during the day to improve yourself but over time it is suppose to just effect your subconscious so you do these things w/o even thinking about it. the wording and principles so far are pretty good.. a lil cheesy but good. and I can tell a difference already and its only been a week.

"Puss 'N Boots" was a good one too.
