Free Success Ebook: “The Life of the Spirit” by Henry Thomas Hamblin – FREE Download!
It was a wonderful discovery to us when it was revealed to us by the Spirit that we are day by day being tested, and that our everyday life is nothing really in itself, but is a continuous trial, training and experience, leading up to various stages of initiation . . . In the external life of business, and what not, it is the man or woman who has a steadfast mind, and who refuses to be stampeded when everything appears to be lost, who wins through and becomes securely and substantially successful. In the spiritual life the same thing holds true. It is the steadfast soul who wins through.
Free Success Ebook: “Mastery of Fate” by Christian D. Larson – FREE Download!
When man is convinced that he is, in himself, master over his life, he can no longer believe that his life is controlled by environment. He must absolutely reject the latter belief; both cannot be true to any one mind; therefore, every mind must decide which one of these beliefs to accept as absolutely true, and which one to reject as absolutely untrue. When man is in a state of self-supremacy, he is in a state where no influence from without exists; he is in a world where the power of self-mastery is the only controlling power; therefore, he cannot truthfully recognize any other.
Free Success Ebook: “Dynamic Thought” by Henry Thomas Hamblin
One of the principal causes of failure in life is due to inability to control the thoughts. Wrong thoughts reach the subconscious mind, these are translated into wrong actions and these bring failure and disaster in their train. When the thoughts are uncontrolled, then the subconscious mind will act upon any thought or suggestion that may “float” in. Therefore do not accept the suggestions of those, who having failed in life, proceed to call it hard names. Life is what we like to make it. We can make it like heaven itself, full to the brim with all that is good and beautiful, or we can turn it into a perfect hell. We can make life a continual joy, if we create a heaven within us by the quality of our thinking and mental processes.
Success Key No. 11: Strength Grows Out of Struggle
Struggle forces us to move when we would otherwise stand still. And it leads us eventually to the full realization that success comes only through struggle. Nothing worthwhile in life is ever achieved without a struggle. If it were easy, everyone would do it. Wherever you find a successful person, you will find a person who has struggled in his or her life. Life is a struggle and the rewards go to those who meet difficulty face to face, overcome it, and move on to the next challenge.
Success Key: Some Succeed, Others Fail . . . Why?
The successful person knows precisely what she desires, has a plan for getting it, believes in her ability to get it, and devotes a major portion of her time to acquiring it. The success is a master salesperson who has learned the art of influencing others to cooperate in a friendly spirit to carry out her plans and purposes. The successful person keeps her mind and outlook on life positive at all times. There is a big difference in both the words and the deeds of the successful person and the failure. But each person is where she is and what she is because of her own mental attitude toward herself and others.
From Obstacles to Stepping Stones: The Key to Victory
Napoleon’s greatest obstacle proved his sure means to victory. His descent on the other side of the Alps when he sought to conquer Italy so surprised the people in that country that they were practically conquered without opposition. The shock of his doing what was deemed impossible took away their power of opposition. So, it is with all difficulties. Obstacles viewed from a higher point of view are invariably stepping stones to Success. The person who Succeeds is the person who wins in spite of circumstances, in spite of adverse conditions, who wins when other people say it is impossible, who rides over obstacles and uses them as platforms to reach even further, higher. That is because the very struggle to overcome obstacles develops within the power to carry us towards our goal.
Free Success Ebook: The Master Mind by Theron Q. Dumont – FREE 400 PAGE Ebook Download
The Master Mind is consciously, deliberately, and voluntarily built up, cultivated, developed, and used; the ordinary mind, contrarily, is usually unconsciously built up, cultivated, and developed, without voluntary effort on its own part, but solely by the force and power of impressions from the outside world, and is usually employed and used with little or no conscious direction by its own will. In short, the ordinary mind is a mere creature of circumstances, driven hither and thither by the winds of outside forces, and lacking the guidance of the hand on the wheel, and being without the compass of Knowledge; while the Master Mind proceeds in the true course mapped out by Intelligence, and determined by will and steered by the Master-hand at the wheel, under the direction of the compass of Intelligence.
SUCCESS MANUAL: Character Building Through Thought Power by Ralph Waldo Trine – FREE Ebook Download
It is only through this living realization of the essential unity of our life with the Father’s life that true blessedness, and even true peace and happiness, can be found. The sooner, then, that we come into it, and thus live the life of the spirit, the better, for neither will they come nor can they be found in any other way. There is, moreover, no time either in this form of life, or in any other form, that we can any more readily come into it, and thereby into all that follows, than we can at this very moment. And when this fountain of Divine Life is once fully opened within us, it can never again be dried up, and we can rest assured that it will at all times uphold us in peace and bear us on in safety.
Free Success Ebook: “Your Forces and How to Use Them” by Christian D. Larson – FREE Download
When the mind discovers that its powers are inexhaustible and that its faculties and talents can be developed to any degree imaginable, the fear of failure will entirely disappear. In its stead will come the conviction that man may attain anything or achieve anything. Whatever circumstances may be today, such a mind will know that all can be changed, that the limitations of the person can be made to pass away, and that the greater desires of the heart can be realized. That individual who knows his power does not judge according to appearances. He never permits himself to believe that this or that cannot be done. He knows that those things can be done, because he has discovered what really exists within him. He works in the conviction that he must, can and will succeed, because he has the power; and it is the truth – he does have the power – we all have the power.
Free Success Ebook: Within You Is the Power by Henry Thomas Hamblin – FREE Download!
If, therefore, a man’s poverty and lack, or financial difficulties are due to weakness of character which manifest in his work and dealings with others, in the form of inefficiency, poor service and bad judgment, it follows that he, himself, must change before his circumstances can be permanently altered for the better. The difficulty in dealing with unsuccessful people is in getting them to realize that they, themselves, are the cause of all their troubles. The truth is, of course, that the source of supply is Spiritual, and therefore without limit; consequently, one who realizes the truth has no thoughts of poverty or lack, and ceases to fear it.
Free Success Ebook: The Ideal Made Real by Christian D. Larson – FREE Download!
To move forward steadily during the great eternal now is to eternally become more than you are; and to become more than you are is to make yourself more and more like your ideal; and here is the great secret, because the principle is that you will realize your ideal when you become exactly like your ideal, and that you will realize as much of your ideal now as you develop in yourself now.
Free Success Ebook: As A Man Thinketh by James Allen (1903) – FREE Download
ALL that a man achieves and all that he fails to achieve is the direct result of his own thoughts. A particular train of thought persisted in, be it good or bad, cannot fail to produce its results on the character and circumstances. A man cannot directly choose his circumstances, but he can choose his thoughts, and so indirectly, yet surely, shape his circumstances.
Success Strategy: Talk the Talk . . .
While we may not have the power or ability to control the external world and the people who live in it and what they may or may not do, we DO have the innate, God-given power and ability to control how we respond to life’s events, conditions and circumstances.
