Free Success Ebook: “What All the World’s A-Seeking” by Ralph Waldo Trine

We make our own heaven or our own hell, and the only heaven or hell that will ever be ours is that of our own making. The order of the universe is one thing we take our lives out of harmony with and so pervert the laws under which we live, and make it another. The order is the all good. We pervert the laws, and what we call evil is the result – simply the result of the violation of law; and we then wonder that a just and loving God could permit such and such things. We wonder at what we term the “strange, inscrutable dispensations of Providence,” when all is of our own making. We can be our own best friends or we can be our own worst enemies; and the only real enemy one can ever have is the self, the real and very self.

Free Success Ebook Classic: “Acres of Diamonds” by Russell H. Conwell – NEW EDITION!

I say again that the opportunity to get rich, to attain unto great wealth, is here now, within the reach of almost every man and woman who hears me speak tonight, and I mean just what I say. I have come to tell you what in God’s sight I believe to be the truth, and if the years of life have been of any value to me in the attainment of common sense, I know I am right – that the men and women sitting here have within their reach “acres of diamonds,” opportunities to get largely wealthy. I say it is the truth, and I want you to accept it as such; for if you think I have come to simply recite something, then I would better not be here. I have no time to waste in any such talk, but to say the things I believe, and unless some of you get richer for what I am saying tonight my time is wasted.

Free Success Ebook Classic: “Think and Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill – NEW EDITION!

In every chapter of Think and Grow Rich, mention is made of a money-making secret that has made fortunes for more than five hundred exceedingly wealthy individuals whom Napoloen Hill carefully analyzed over a period of more than 25 years. The secret is mentioned no fewer than a hundred times throughout the book, but it is not directly named, for it seems to work more successfully when it is merely uncovered and left in sight, where those who are ready, and searching for it, may pick it up. When you are ready to put it to use, you will immediately recognize the phenomenal money-making secret of Think and Grow Rich.

Success Key 28: Bob Proctor’s First Speaking Engagement – Don’t QUIT!

Sometimes no matter how bleak it may look, the best alternative is to stay the course. One must evaluate the alternatives and make the best decision based on the facts. Yet, one must also keep in mind that the greatest successes, the biggest wins, do NOT come easy. There must be sacrifice, and the more ambitious the goal, the greater the sacrifice. That is why most people quit along the way. That is why not everyone is incredibly wealthy – it simply takes too much commitment and sacrifice to achieve that level of Success.

Free Success Ebook: “The Way to Wealth” by Benjamin Franklin (1757) – Free Download

“So what signifies wishing and hoping for better times? We may make these times better, if we bestir ourselves. ‘Industry need not wish, and he that lives upon hopes will die fasting. There are no gains without pains . . . He that hath a trade hath an estate; and he that hath a calling, hath an office of profit and honor,’ as Poor Richard says; but then the trade must be worked at, and the calling followed, or neither the estate nor the office will enable us to pay our taxes. If we are industrious, we shall never starve; for, ‘at the working man’s house hunger looks in, but dares not enter.’”

Free Success Ebook: “An Iron Will” by Orison Swett Marden (1901), Founder of Success Magazine

There are no two words in the English language which stand out in bolder relief, like kings upon a checkerboard, to so great an extent as the words, “I will.” There is strength, depth and solidity, decision, confidence and power, determination, vigor and individuality, in the round, ringing tone which characterizes its delivery. It talks to you of triumph over difficulties, of victory in the face of discouragement, of will to promise and strength to perform, of lofty and daring enterprise, of unfettered aspirations, and of the thousand and one solid impulses by which man masters impediments in the way of progression.

Free Success Ebook: “How to Turn YOUR Ability into CASH” by Earl Prevette – Free Download!

An understanding of the three Departments of the Mind will help you to make your dreams come true, qualify you to have an abundance of everything, and enable you to turn your ideas into money. A knowledge of all three Departments of the Mind is essential, but the ultimate and complete fulfillment of an idea is dependent upon Desire. Desire is a combination of feeling and action, and brings into force all the qualities, attributes and powers of the Mind.

Free Ebook: “Byways to Blessedness” by James Allen – FREE Immediate Download!

He who masters the small becomes the rightful possessor of the great. He who is mastered by the small can achieve no superlative victory. Life is a kind of cooperative trust in which the whole is of the nature of, and dependent upon, the unit. A successful business, a perfect machine, a glorious temple, or a beautiful character is evolved from the perfect adjustment of a multiplicity of parts.

Success Key: Conditioning – What You Need to KNOW – NOW!

The state of your conditioning is absolutely critical to the state of your life and it is the most important factor – out of the many factors and elements – in whether or not you will achieve the life that you Desire. No matter how much or what you study, or what actions you take (or fail to take), if your conditioning is “faulty,” you will not achieve your Desires. Indeed, the Law of Attraction – as well as the other Universal Laws – is absolutely useless if you have, and engage in, faulty conditioning.

Apollo 13: One of the Greatest Success Stories

Apollo 13 is one of the greatest Success stories of all time. I can think of no other true, real life accounting of the triumph of the human will and Spirit to overcome such adversity, with so much at stake – human lives. The story of Apollo 13 is the ultimate Success; it was a true MIRACLE. If Apollo 13 can teach us anything, it is this: ANYTHING is possible, ANYTHING.

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.

The Golden Rule – A Lost Success Key?

The Golden Rule means, substantially, to do unto others as you would wish them to do unto you if your positions were reversed. The law upon which the Golden Rule is based begins affecting you, either for good or evil, the moment you release a thought. It has amounted almost to a world-wide tragedy that people have not generally understood this law. Despite the simplicity of the law it is practically all there is to be learned that is of enduring value to man, for it is the medium through which we become the masters of our own destiny.

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.
