The Secret of the Ages
by Robert Collier
Collier, an advertising man, applies New Thought to prosperity in 1926: the subconscious as genie, visualising the end result, 'the law of supply' and the treasure-mapping exercise. It sold hundreds of thousands and its ideas resurfaced wholesale in The Secret.
Read it if…
you want the 1920s prosperity text that The Secret drew from.
Skip it if…
you want financial technique.
Three things you will actually use
- See the end result clearly.
- Supply follows demand clearly expressed.
- Action must follow the picture.
Do this first
Do the treasure-map exercise and then write the actions it implies.
Our verdict
The 1920s source of The Secret.
