This review is from: Psycho-Pictography: The New Way to Use the Miracle Power of Your Mind (Paperback)
HI!Psycho-Pictography came into my possession in a very strange way. I was in a need for growth, and it came to me thru a bizarre circumstance and answered ALL my questions and showed me ALL the answers. People always said i was positive and i thought so as well, until i read this book and saw the little negative blocks that i and others put up for ourselves keeping us from reaching our goals and obtaining inner peace. people don't realize how these little negative blocks can build into a giant wall.i wasn't even finished with the book when i got my dream job on my favorite tv show! and my life has steadily improved from there. but it's not about money and jobs, it's about being at peace and finding your true self! learning to deal with people and things that arise in a whole new way. he said, things that made you mad will now make you laugh! when i first read this i was skeptical, but it is SO TRUE!!!i laugh all the time! i can cry for others, but i can no longer cry for myself, if i get sad about myself i start to laugh cause i realize how silly i am being, i have nothing to be sad about and nothing to fear! all thanks to vernon howard!READ THIS BOOK!

READ THIS AND GROW, May 5 2000

This book was originally published in 1965, hence the wacky title. Get past that, highlight what appeals to you, live it, and you will grow. At the heart of this book are 'Four Golden Keys to New Freedom and Happiness', cheesy huh? Well, they work: 1. A sincere desire for inner change. 2. Contact with workable principles. 3. Self-honesty. 4. Persistence. Common sense, right? It's amazing how uncommon the use of it is. Even those who have heard of this advice and worked with it need REVIEW and PRACTICE, but most of all, a different outlook, a different perspective. This book provides that and more if you can open your mind enough to truly apply the wisdom within and see if it works for you, which, as the author states, is the only true test.

I first read this book about five years ago, and I can't count the number of people I've recommended it to. Some of the writing style seems a bit corny or outdated, but the content is amazingly powerful.
I don't think much of most self help books, but this one really does teach us to meditate on the way our minds work, and the resulting increased awareness really can bring about lasting change. It does take a lot of work, but obsessive thoughts can be brought under control with this awareness, leading to a lessening of chronic anger and depression, which in turn allows a brighter outlook and a more optimistic future.
Vernon really knew his stuff.
