Creative Mind and Success

First published in 1922, "Creative Mind and Success" by Ernest S. Holmes, the American writer, a teacher and leader of the "New Thought" movement, is the confident and optimistic guide to focusing one's thoughts in order to obtain success.

Born in 1887 in Maine to a poor family, Holmes became an important and influential figure in the "Religious Science" spiritual movement, which embraced the philosophy of "the science of the mind". Holmes believed that there was a connection between science, philosophical thought, and spirituality, and that all people could connect to the power of god, or the "Universal Presence", by aligning their thoughts and actions with this cosmic spirit through mindfulness and meditation.

In "Creative Mind and Success", Holmes applies his ideas on the power of connection to the "Universal Presence" to the achievement of wealth, as well as helping one to attract friends and relationships. Holmes's ideas were far ahead of their time and have gained in popularity over the past century. His advice continues to inspire readers on their path to financial and personal success.
