This book was released on 2012-12-16 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James Allen's book, while not getting caught up in the "infinite and eternal" law of attraction, raises some interesting philosophical questions about how much of our lives we control. According to Allen, we're responsible for it all: "Nothing comes unbidden; where the shadow is, there also is the substance." Even though cheaters may (temporarily) prosper while good guys (temporarily) finish last, everyone will get what they deserve in the end. Does this mean children dying of starvation are getting what they deserve too? Allen seems to be saying yes. His reasoning is as follows: Because "the present is the synthesis of the entire past" and "the net result of all that a man has ever thought and done is contained within him", experiences in this lifetime may be due to what happened in previous ones: "It should be remembered that man is a changing, evolving being... [The] good man who is overtaken with calamity today is reaping the result of his former evil sowing; later he will reap the happy result of his present good sowing; while the bad man is now reaping the result of his former good sowing; later he will reap the result of his present sowing of bad." Despite these philosophical challenges, 'Master of Destiny' is the perfect follow up to 'As A Man Thinketh'--as relevant today as it was a century ago.
Download or read book Thinking And Destiny written by Harold W. Percival and published by Motilal Banarsidass Publ.. This book was released on 2002-04 with total page 1058 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Thinking and Destiny, something new, although older than time, is now made known to the world--about Consciousness. The information is largely about the makeup of the human, where man comes from, what becomes of him; it explains what thinking is; it tells how a thought is created, and how thoughts are exteriorized into acts, objects and events, and how they make his destiny. Destiny is thus shown to be self-determined by thinking; and the process of re-existence and the after-death states are told in detail. A single reading of any one chapter of Thinking and Destiny brings rich rewards in new understanding of life`s puzzling mysteries. To read the entire book is to come nearer to knowledge of one`s destiny and how to shape it than is possible through study of anything previously written in the English language. Both the casually curious glancer at books and the most avid seeker for knowledge will be intrigued by the index, which lists more than 400 subjects in Thinking and Destiny, and by the fifteen chapter headings in the Table of Contents, which identify the 156 sections. The Foreword contains the only pages in which Mr. Percival uses the first personal pronoun. Here he relates some of the amazing experiences through which he was able to grasp the knowledge he transmits, and to acquire the ability to do so.

This book was released on 2016-06-26 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your Destiny is in Your Hands This book from the As a Man Thinketh fame James Allen, is no different when it comes to rich wisdom about life and success. It talks about having good thoughts and mental conditioning, controlling the mind, habit and character formation, etc. When we are responsible for our action and thinking, then we are responsible for our destiny. And that means, you can change the direction you are traveling in life if you don't like it. Implicitly, the book says, "Life is not a chance, but the choices you make daily in your thoughts and action." That means, no matter what others have told you, you can always, every single time, decide and make real changes in your life by managing your deeds and thinking process. You get the tools in the book to do it. This book is a companion to the other work of James Allen which is The Life Triumphant. The Chapters From the Book: 1. Deeds, Character, and Destiny 2. The Science of Self-Control 3. Cause and Effect in Human Conduct 4. Training of the Will 5. Thoroughness 6. Mind-Building and Life-Building 7. Cultivation of Concentration 8. Practice of Meditation 9. The Power of Purpose 10. The Joy of Accomplishment Some Insights From the Book: I. Every successful man, in whatever direction his success may lie, practices concentration, though he may know nothing about it as a subject of study. II. Times, Places, and Conditions in which it is best to Meditate: 1. Very early in the morning.2. Immediately before meals.3. In solitude.4. In the open air or in a plainly furnished room.5. While sitting on a hard seat.6. When the body is strong and vigorous.7. When the body is modestly and plainly clothed. III. The price of life is effort; the acme of effort is accomplishment; the reward of accomplishment is joy. Blessed is the man who strives against his own selfishness; he will taste in its fullness the joy of accomplishment. IV. Man can (and does) choose what causes he shall set in operation, but he cannot change the nature of effects; he can decide what thoughts he shall think, and what deeds he shall do, but he has no power over the results of those thoughts and deeds; these are regulated by the overruling law. V. Characteristics are fixed habits of mind, the results of deeds. An act repeated a large number of times becomes unconscious, or automatic - that is, it then seems to repeat itself without any effort on the part of the doer, so that it seems to him almost impossible not to do it, and then it has become a mental characteristic.

Finances, health, social status, and success are all external manifestations of the thoughts that populate our minds. Allen offers his readers an opportunity to seize control of their minds and create the lives they’ve always imagined. This edition of As A Man Thinketh is part of the new Basics of Success series, a collection of everyday guidebooks for everyone looking to improve their life.
Download or read book The Master of Destiny written by Associate Professor of Philosophy James Allen and published by . This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Mastery of Destiny" embodies James Allen's teachings that our thoughts can be used to increase our capabilities and to create our lives as we desire them to be. Allen tackles a number of pivotal topics in this short tome, including the Law of Cause and Effect (the Law of Attraction), breaking bad habits, and the joy of accomplishment. To Allen, "characteristics are fixed habits of mind, the results of deeds. An act repeated a large number of times becomes unconscious, or automatic- that is, it then seems to repeat itself without any effort on the part of the doer, so that it seems to him almost impossible not to do it, and then it has become a mental characteristic." Since this is the case, if you stay focused on (repetition being one of the major keys) what you want, you will get what you want with little or no conscious effort." Written in 1909, "The Mastery of Destiny" is one of nineteen books that James Allen wrote in his short nine-year literary career (which ended with his death in 1912). Chapters in this short but extremely helpful book include "Deeds, Character and Destiny," "The Science of Self-Control," "Cause and Effect in Human Contact," "Training of the Will," Thoroughness," "Mind-building and Life-Building," "Cultivation of Concentration," "Practice of Meditation," "The Power of Purpose," and "The Joy of Accomplishment."
Download or read book Discipline Is Destiny written by Ryan Holiday and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-09-27 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The instant New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today Bestseller! In his New York Times bestselling book Courage is Calling, author Ryan Holiday made the Stoic case for a bold and brave life. In this much-anticipated second book of his Stoic Virtue series, Holiday celebrates the awesome power of self-discipline and those who have seized it. To master anything, one must first master themselves–one’s emotions, one’s thoughts, one’s actions. Eisenhower famously said that freedom is really the opportunity to practice self-discipline. Cicero called the virtue of temperance the polish of life. Without boundaries and restraint, we risk not only failing to meet our full potential and jeopardizing what we have achieved, but we ensure misery and shame. In a world of temptation and excess, this ancient idea is more urgent than ever. In Discipline is Destiny, Holiday draws on the stories of historical figures we can emulate as pillars of self-discipline, including Lou Gehrig, Queen Elizabeth II, boxer Floyd Patterson, Marcus Aurelius and writer Toni Morrison, as well as the cautionary tales of Napoleon, F. Scott Fitzgerald and Babe Ruth. Through these engaging examples, Holiday teaches readers the power of self-discipline and balance, and cautions against the perils of extravagance and hedonism. At the heart of Stoicism are four simple virtues: courage, temperance, justice, and wisdom. Everything else, the Stoics believed, flows from them. Discipline is Destiny will guide readers down the path to self-mastery, upon which all the other virtues depend. Discipline is predictive. You cannot succeed without it. And if you lose it, you cannot help but bring yourself failure and unhappiness.
Download or read book The Book of Mastery written by Paul Selig and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-01-05 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book in channeler Paul Selig’s widely anticipated Mastery Trilogy leads you into an unprecedented journey of self-development, at once building your personal excellence and your ability to improve life for others. The channeled literature of Paul Selig -- who receives clairaudient dictation from unseen intellects called the Guides -- has quickly become the most important and celebrated expression of channeling since A Course In Miracles rose to prominence in the 1970s. Selig’s three previous books -- I Am the Word, The Book of Love and Creation, and The Book of Knowing and Worth -- have won a growing following around the world for their depth, intimacy, and psychological insight. Now, Selig embarks upon an extraordinary new trilogy on the “Teachings of Mastery” with his inaugural volume: The Book of Mastery. The Book of Mastery provides a deeply practical prescription for heightening your abilities, aptitudes, and sense of personal excellence. The Guides’ teachings go much further, however, instructing you how to improve life for others and, ultimately, for global humanity. As the Guides themselves put it: “We will tell you this: No one who reads these books will be left unchanged. They will be like molecular systems that reinvigorate and realign and reclaim the reader to themselves in their worth, in their identity and, beyond that, in their physical realm. Underline physical realm if you like. Because the physical realm that we teach in is about to go back to the stone ages unless you all get it together.”

Book excerpt: Dorothy Jean Hulst, a free-lance writer, had as one of her favorite books As A Man Thinketh, by James Allen. In this short volume, Allen expressed his belief that an individual, through the power of positive thought, forms their character and consequent happiness. Hulst was inspired by the content of Allen's book but tired of the mental exercise required to substitute feminine equivalents for masculine terms. Using a pencil, she crossed out all masculine references, replacing them with feminine words. The result, As A Woman Thinketh, allows women to identify directly and personally with Allen's concepts.
