The Game of Life and How to Play It by Florence Scovel Shinn audiobook.

Genre: self help

First published in 1925, Florence Scovel Shinn's The Game of Life and How to Play It is a compact, energetic guide to living with faith, intention, and spiritual poise. Drawing on biblical language, everyday anecdotes, and a principle-driven view of cause and effect, Shinn argues that life operates by learnable rules - and that words, beliefs, and expectations act like moves in a game, shaping what we experience. Through short chapters and vivid examples, she explores how fear and resentment can block progress, while forgiveness, gratitude, and unwavering trust can open paths to health, prosperity, and right relationships. At the center is a practical spiritual discipline: choose your aim, speak with conviction, and align your inner attitude with the good you seek, even when circumstances look discouraging. Warm, direct, and highly quotable, this book invites listeners to test its ideas in daily life and to practice a mindset where obstacles become assignments, and success means learning to cooperate with a higher law.
