What if you were promised a simple, 8-word formula that could turn your life around? Would you believe it? Would you try it? Here it is: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eAct as if it were impossible to fail\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis magic key is at the heart of one of the most persuasive self-improvement books ever published - a work that, while forgotten, rivaled the popularity of contemporaneous books by Napoleon Hill and Dale Carnegie. It was called \u003ci\u003eWake Up and Live!\u003c\/i\u003e, written by Dorothea Brande, an enterprising Chicago journalist. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhen Brande published \u003ci\u003eWake Up and Live!\u003c\/i\u003e in 1936, the book soared to popularity, selling over 1,000,000 copies in years ahead. The book won so much acclaim that it became the sole work of mind-power philosophy ever to make it to the movie screen - and as a musical, no less. In 1937, 20th Century Fox released \u003ci\u003eWake Up and Live\u003c\/i\u003e, starring Walter Winchell. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBrande was a journalist and writing instructor by trade, best known for her enduring and thoughtful instructional book, \u003ci\u003eBecoming a Writer\u003c\/i\u003e (1934). That book, Brande explained, grew out of a period of bounding productivity in her career, which began with her discovery of one basic law of success. Brande's formula was so simple and magical-seeming that it made people want to argue with her the moment she uttered it. But for many it worked. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eWake Up and Live!\u003c\/i\u003e - a book that is as enjoyable as its formula is simple - Brande tells the story of her discovery and shows how her eight-word technique can be applied across different areas of life. With its observations about self-defeat, and its powerful idea for navigating around it, \u003ci\u003eWake Up and Live!\u003c\/i\u003e is one of the most keenly argued and carefully observant works of practical psychology ever written. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Eminently sensible and practical.\" - \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Fascinating and exactly the spring tonic that most of us need.\" - \u003ci\u003eChicago Tribune\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBorn in Chicago, \u003cb\u003eDorothea Brande\u003c\/b\u003e (1893-1948) was a widely respected journalist, fiction writer, and writing instructor. Brande is widely known for her enduring guide to the creative process, \u003ci\u003eBecoming a Writer\u003c\/i\u003e, originally published in 1934 and still popular today. In 1936, Brande published a masterwork of practical psychology, \u003ci\u003eWake Up and Live! \u003c\/i\u003eThe book entered more than 34 printings and sold over 1,000,000 copies. For many years, \u003ci\u003eWake Up and Live!\u003c\/i\u003e, with its simple and sound advice for personal excellence, rivaled the popularity of contemporaneous works such as \u003ci\u003eThink and Grow Rich\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eHow to Win Friends and Influence People\u003c\/i\u003e.
