Grant Cardone Credits Dianetics for Life Transformation

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 16, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Grant Cardone, the entrepreneur and real estate investor, credits a book by L. Ron Hubbard with transforming his life and career. Despite facing significant personal challenges, including the loss of his father at age 10 and a drug addiction in his teens, Cardone found a turning point in his journey through Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health.

Cardone, who grew up in Lake Charles, Louisiana, shared his story at an event in Los Angeles. He described his early life as marked by messages that taught him to be cautious and avoid opportunities. The advice he received, such as being told to "be careful," instilled in him a mindset that often held him back.

In his early twenties, Cardone's life took a turn for the worse when he developed a drug addiction. He checked into a treatment center, but upon leaving, he found himself with diminished self-esteem and a lack of direction. However, he refused to accept this limitation.

At 25, Cardone received a copy of Dianetics. The book reframed his understanding of the experiences that had shaped his decisions and showed him how accumulated losses had been steering his choices. Cardone credits the principles of Dianetics with fueling the biggest financial leap of his career.

Cardone emphasized the importance of taking responsibility for one's life and not blaming others. "Don't quit looking for what works for you. Once you find it, double down on it."

Dianetics, published by Bridge Publications, Inc., has been a cornerstone of the Church of Scientology since 1950. The book is part of a larger body of work by L. Ron Hubbard, who founded the Church of Scientology. Bridge Publications, Inc., based in Los Angeles, is the publisher of the nonfiction works of L. Ron Hubbard and serves regions including North and Latin America, Africa, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand.

Cardone's journey from a life of loss and addiction to achieving his full potential through the principles of Dianetics highlights the transformative power of self-discovery and personal responsibility. His story serves as an inspiration to others who may be struggling with similar challenges.
