Schwartz was born on March 23, 1927[1] in the United States. He received a BS degree at the University of Nebraska in 1948 and his MA and then Ph.D. in 1953 from Ohio State University.[5][6][7]

He was a professor at Georgia State University, Atlanta, and was considered a leading American authority on motivation.[8][9] He became well known through his motivational publications and self-help books, especially for The Magic of Thinking Big, published in 1959.[10] Later, he began his own work as a self-help coach and life strategist and founded his own consultancy firm focusing on leadership development called Creative Educational Services Inc.[3][11]

The Magic of Thinking Big

{{main|The Magic of Thinking Big}}The Magic of Thinking Big, first published in 1959,[13] is a self-help book by David J. Schwartz.[3] The book was one of Simon & Schuster's all-time paperback best sellers[14] and has sold over 6 million copies,[15][16][24][17] It instructs people to set their goals high and think positively to achieve them.[18][19][20]

The author gives a step-by-step guide on how to achieve what one wants by changing their thought patterns and thought habits.[3][30] He explains that visualization adds value to everything and thinking big means training oneself to see not just what is, but what can be.[31][32] He explains transmitting good news is win win, and we feel better and so do the people we are talking to.[31][21] Lou Holtz mentions that this book helped him create his lifelong goals list.[35][22] He also describes three failure diseases : excuse-itis, detail-itis and procrastination.[37] Making better decisions and avoiding negative thoughts is the main topic of the book.[38][39][23][24]
