You! the Way to Success Through Self-Power

You! The Way to Success Through Self-Power written by Irving Ross Allen, published in New York in 1920.Very informative self-help book that really gets You thinking. Published long ago but most of it still applies to today's World.----The first real step toward a successful life is a decision as to what you really and specifically expect and want from the time you spend on this earth.----But the wiser man halts and reflects and realizes that the Power which has enabled him to achieve Money can be expended in other directions which will bring him that greatest of all things — the one of the two that Money can't buy — and that thing is Contentment.----The Law for Success is, "Give more than you receive to attract the things you want."----Most men construe egoism as "conceit." Under the Law Egoism is belief in self — it banishes fear and worry — combined with Optimism and backed by Selfism and developed powers it makes you pioneer into the paths of profit — both mental and financial.----When you really acquire the ability to Concentrate, you can grasp things more quickly — handle yourself more efficiently and act far more intelligently than the ordinary mortal. For — the ordinary man knows not the meaning of the word Concentration in its true sense.----The major part of the acquirement of any skill or faculty is the understanding of the rules governing it, and the time you spend in weighing your own speech and method of speaking as it is at present, against the fundamentals herein outlined, is time most profitably spent.----Personality is that thing within you which, without even the spoken word, others sense when they meet you or see you — it is attraction, personal magnetism and its source lies in your mind. Personality is born of a strong mind — a good mind — sending out its vibrated messages as surely as the wireless, making all you meet take interest — want to know you better.----When you have developed Optimism, Egoism and Selfism to the point where your Prevailing Mental Attitude under the Law is a strongly entrenched mental habit, then your walls of defense are up and the enemy cannot pass. Fear — Doubt and Worry will have no place in your mental scheme of things, and therefore you will not be subject to their harmful influence.The Publisher has copy-edited this book to improve the formatting, style and accuracy of the text to make it readable.
