ABOUT THE ORIGINAL 1926 EDITION
It Works: The Famous Little Red Book That Makes Your Dreams Come True presents R. H. Jarrett’s original work as published in 1926.
The original text is a short metaphysical work that presents a simple plan for accomplishing one's desires. Rather than offering an extensive theoretical system, Jarrett focuses on clearly defining what you want, writing down your desires, keeping them before your mind, and following the method with persistence.
The original work explores several central ideas, including:
-
Definite Desire
-
Writing Down Your Desires
-
Mental Attention and Persistence
-
The Objective and Subjective Mind
-
The Inner Power of Emmanuel
-
Accomplishment and Desired Results
Jarrett describes Emmanuel as the inner power or presence of God within and connects this idea with the subjective mind and the fulfillment of earnest desires.
This edition preserves the original 1926 text while adding historical context, explanatory annotations, and The Emmanuel Principle to help contemporary readers understand the language and metaphysical ideas of the original work.
It is intended for readers who want to explore It Works in its original context while also gaining additional guidance for understanding its ideas and their relevance to the history of manifestation and metaphysical self-development.
THE CHAPTERS OF IT WORKS
The original It Works: The Famous Little Red Book That Makes Your Dreams Come True is a concise work that presents a practical plan for accomplishing one's desires. The book develops its ideas through a short sequence of sections focused on desire, written goals, mental attention, the subjective mind, and the inner power Jarrett calls Emmanuel.
Section 1: The Basic Principle
The opening section introduces the central idea behind It Works: a person should become definite about what they want rather than holding vague wishes.
Jarrett emphasizes the importance of clearly defining one's desires and establishing a specific objective. The focus is not simply on wishing for something, but on knowing precisely what one wants.
This provides the foundation for the practical method presented throughout the book.
Section 2: The Written List
Jarrett places particular importance on writing down one's desires.
The reader is instructed to make a definite list of the things they want and to keep this list available for regular reference.
Writing gives form and clarity to a desire and provides a definite statement that can repeatedly be brought before the mind.
Section 3: Keeping the Desire Before the Mind
The method then calls for continued attention to the written desires.
Jarrett encourages the reader to regularly read the list and think about the things they have written down rather than treating the exercise as a one-time activity.
The emphasis is on maintaining a definite mental focus on the desired results while continuing to follow the plan.
Section 4: The Objective and Subjective Mind
Jarrett discusses the distinction between the objective mind and the subjective mind.
The objective mind is associated with ordinary conscious awareness, while the subjective mind is presented as a deeper aspect of consciousness through which ideas and desires can be impressed.
This distinction forms an important part of Jarrett's explanation of how the method operates.
Section 5: Emmanuel
One of the central concepts in It Works is Emmanuel.
Jarrett describes Emmanuel as the inner presence or power of God within. He connects this inner power with the subjective mind and presents it as capable of working toward the fulfillment of an earnest desire.
The concept of Emmanuel provides an important spiritual dimension to the practical method presented in the book.
Section 6: Accomplishment
The concluding part of the work brings the practical method together.
Jarrett emphasizes following the plan with consistency and allowing the desired results to unfold rather than continually changing one's objective.
The overall approach remains simple: know what you want, write it down, keep it before your mind, and follow the plan with faith and persistence.
Through these ideas, It Works presents a concise approach to desire, mental attention, and accomplishment that has continued to attract readers interested in manifestation, metaphysical thought, prosperity, and the power of the mind.
WHAT DOES IT WORKS TEACH?
R. H. Jarrett’s It Works brings together several recurring ideas:
-
Definite desire
-
Clearly defined goals
-

The subjective mind

For modern readers, many of these ideas can be viewed in relation to manifestation and conscious creation, particularly the emphasis on clearly defining what you want, directing your mental attention toward it, and maintaining faith in its fulfillment.
However, It Works uses its own terminology and metaphysical concepts rather than the language of today's manifestation movement.
