Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Beyond Positive Thinking
Robert Anthony · 2004
68/100
👎 Skip It
Robert Anthony has real credentials, and this one moves past feel-good slogans into actual goal-setting and visualization steps, which I appreciate. It leans on some vague 'mind-power' and spiritual-ish language that isn't tied to any specific tradition, so know that going in - but the practical structure genuinely holds up.
