Kreskin’s Mind Power Book

Subtitled as “Use Your Head To Get Ahead! Kreskin’s Mind Power Book” is the second book that Kreskin wrote which was published by MaGraw-Hill in 1977. It also came out before Johnny Carson coined the term “The Amazing Kreskin” which he would use later in his career.

In his introduction Kreskin explains the purpose of the book: “Perhaps no one can completely tap all resources and potentials in one lifetime. I am giving you, however, the keys which can unlock the door to a continual program of self-development and improvement. What I ask of you is a commitment. You may not use every technique in this book. But you will find a direction, through those techniques which work best for you. In time they will become automatic. You will find yourself achieving a knack for responding to your own constructive suggestion or idea, with less and less conscious effort. You will then have the tools you will need to apply your mind power techniques to life’s challenges. In time the positive suggestion and conditioning approach will reflect itself in your work and play and in a lifestyle which I believe will bring you greater happiness, a sense of achievement, and an inner serenity.”
