Find a lost treasure

In 5 chapters, J. Martin Kohe presents the power to choose (Ch. 1) and 4 options; Wealth (ch. 2), conditions (ch. 3), our personality (ch. 4) and happiness (ch. 5). In the last chapter, W. Clement Stone discusses an article about hidden treasure and how to find the greatest power. Following the article there are 17 points to get a treasure.

Helpful principles to act on to choose a better life

J. Martin Kohe inspires readers with personal language and strong encouraging promises. His presentations attract attention as saying: “You are the possessor of great and wonderful power. This power, when applied correctly, will bring confidence instead of shyness, calm instead of confusion, balance instead of restlessness …”

Kohe boldly announces his point: “The greatest power a person possesses is the power to choose.”

By reading this inspirational classic, readers will be motivated to make and stick with meaningful life decisions. Martin Kohe expresses this in his chapter on choosing wealth, saying, “If we don’t change our thinking, we can never hope to change our financial position … we must change our inner thoughts.”

Simple illustrations are preceded by powerful, crisp statements. Kohe writes: “THOUGHTS BECOME THINGS. The telephone was a thought in Bell’s mind before it became a telephone.” If you can think about it, you can have it!

Martin’s message is empowering, freeing readers to take charge of their future. His language follows next, like, “We can control our thoughts … by controlling our thoughts … we are INDIRECTLY ABLE TO CONTROL CONDITIONS.”

The comments of W. Clement Stone seal the message of this great book. He writes, “… this applies only to those of us who have learned HOW to develop the habit of acting when we recognize a usable principle …”
