Here are the 6 best Robert Collier books you should read this year, including ones you’ve probably never heard of!

I first discovered Robert Collier when I got into business. I needed to learn about copywriting and his “Letter Book” was recommended to me by multiple friends.

But it wasn’t until years later when I started building my personal development library and scouring ebay for the best books on success, that I rediscovered Robert Collier… in a new way.

I discovered that most of his works weren’t about copywriting or business (except indirectly)... but about personal development and success, much like Napoleon Hill!

Needless to say, I bought his books and read through them. I even published an exclusive audiobook and ebook of The Secrets of the Ages for members in our community (you can learn more below).

Without further adieu, here are the 6 best Robert Collier books you should read in 2024!

the secrets of the ages

1. The Secret of the Ages

"The Secret of the Ages” is a foundational work in the self-help and New Thought genres. This book explores the idea that individuals have immense untapped potential within their minds, particularly within the subconscious. Collier's central thesis is that by understanding and harnessing this potential, one can achieve significant success, wealth, and happiness!

Collier's book is structured to guide readers through the principles of positive thinking, visualization, and the law of attraction. He presents the idea that connecting with a universal source of energy and knowledge can lead to personal transformation and fulfillment. The book has been influential in not only my own journey… but in shaping the lives of thousands of people around the world!

Lessons/Quotes From The Book

On the Power of the Mind and the 'Life Principle':

"This is the greatest discovery of modern times— that every man can call upon this 'Life Principle' at will, that it is as much the servant of his mind as was ever Aladdin’s fabled 'Genie-of-the-lamp' of old; that he has but to understand it and work in harmony with it to get from it anything he may need—health or happiness, riches or success."

On the Potential of the Subconscious Mind:

"You have just as great power in your hands— without this poor woman’s excuse for not using it. You have access to unlimited ideas, unlimited energy, unlimited wealth. The 'Open Sesame!' is through your subconscious mind. The secret of power is in understanding the infinite resources of your own mind."

On Aspirations and the Universal Mind:

"I worked for a menial’s hire, only to learn dismayed, that any wage I had asked of Life, Life would have paid. Aim high! If you miss the moon, you may hit a star. Everyone admits that this world and all the vast firmament must have been thought into shape from the formless void by some Universal Mind. That same Universal Mind rules today and it has given to each form of life power to attract to itself whatever it needs for its perfect growth."

"The mind thinks in pictures, you know. One good illustration is worth a thousand words. But one clear picture built up in the reader’s mind by your words is worth a thousand drawings, for the reader colors that picture with his own imagination, which is more potent than all the brushes of all the world’s artists."

On Aligning with the Customer’s Mindset:

"Always enter the conversation already taking place in the customer’s mind."

On Authenticity in Marketing:

"We have become so accustomed to hearing everyone claim that his product is the best in the world, or the cheapest, that we take all such statements with a grain of salt."
