review:
Thoughts are powerful. What we dwell our minds on directly affects our actions. We will become what our thoughts are centered around. Reality is molded by the quality of our thoughts; the quality of our life is molded by our reality.

This book is a simple reflection on the theme that we must be vigilant with the direction of our thoughts. They constantly are turning astray from the things we value. To let our minds run free leads often times to poor judgment. Thoughts desperately need direction. Our thoughts are always in peril of jeopardizing our goals. Therefore, we must discipline them.

When thought are organized and utilized, the possibilities are endless. All good judgment flows from the self education of our thoughts. The one thing we know for certain in this life, which must be valid in order for anything else to follow, is that we are here and that we are thinking about being here. Reason and experience. "I think therefore I am". Opportunity is endless to the man or woman who directs their thoughts.
