Which book had the biggest impacted in your life?

I'll go first. The book that had the biggest impact in my life was "Success through a positive mental attitude" by Napoloeon Hill and W. Clement Stone.

How about you?

I would go with, "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill. I read this out of high school and it has impacted my thoughts every since.

For me, it has to be, "How to win friends and influence people" by Dale Carnegie.

The book that changed everything for me was, "The Structure of Magic" by Bandler and Grinder.

Milton, there is a clarity in your posts--sort of a linear reasoning process--that seems to reflect your NLP studies. Have you read anything by Hall on the subject? I've read Bandler's Time For A Change.

I have read Mind-Lines, the 4th and most recent edition. Highly recommended. I haven't read the others you mention.

As you're probably aware, Hall has some worthwhile PDF files on the web worth downloading and saving.
