But How Do We Know What Best Serves Us? These Are The Flashes Of Insight In The Superconscious, Where We Are Given The Gift Of Intuition By God, The Infinite Intelligence In The End, All Power Is Given Man (Through Right Thinking) To Bring His Heaven Upon His Earth, And This Is The Goal Of The 'Game Of Life ' Shinn Was Not The First To Espouse These Ideas She May Have Been Influenced By The Writings Of New Thought Thinkers Like Mary Baker Eddy And Charles And Myrtle Fillmore Where Shinn Stands Out In The Sea Of Metaphysical Writers Was The Accessibility Of Her Language Written In Simple English, With Plenty Of Examples And Illustrations, Shinn Is Able To Connect With Readers Who May Be Exploring The Topic For The First Time She Continued In This Way In Her Later Works These Include Your Word Is Your Want, Which Is A Book Of Affirmations, And The Secret Door To Success, A Collection Of Talks And Lectures That She Gave In New York City In The 1920S And 1930S Shinn's Work Has Had A Long-Lasting Impact On Later Metaphysical Thinkers, Including Influential Writerpublisher Louise Hay And Minister Norman Vincent Peale, Author Of The Massively Popular The Power Of Positive Thinking Binding:Hardcover, HardcoverPublisher:Mockingbird PressPublication Date:2021-06-25Weight:0.56 lbsDimensions:0.31'' H x 9'' L x 6'' WNumber of Pages:64Language:English
