Box 60561 Longmeadow, MA 01116 www.BusinessLeadershipMastery.com [email protected] Direct 413-262-4906 Prime Objectives Newspaper Column January 2008 READING INTO SUCCESS The most successful people in the world develop successful habits. It is no secret the most common habit the most influential people in the world share is a passion for reading. They read more than one newspaper a day, they customize their Internet home pages to reference specific information quickly and easily. They read magazines that align with their professional and personal interests and they have a personal “Success Library” of books that impact their life. If you have read this far, “Congratulations” on your desire to further develop your habit. Periodically my executive and entrepreneur coaching clients ask for a “Suggested Reading” list. I’ve never published one until now. My personal library contains literally hundreds of books and growing. With the creative license to revise my “Suggested Reading” list at any time, I simply trusted my intuition in sharing the following 12 books with you. The selection process focused on books that were not only personal favorites, but also impacted the success of thousands, even millions of other people. I decided on a checklist format for the convenience of selecting books that appeal to you. The authors of these books also have other titles published in their name, so I encourage you to search their names for additional reading. If reading is foundational for lifelong success, here are 12 great opportunities to feed your habit: As A Man Thinketh ………………………………………..

Yet this strange phase of your pow er is quite as natural as are those most familiar to you. There is nothing supernatural about it. It falls into its place in the natural order of things. It is governed by natural law and «rder. Like all the other forms of Personal Power to which we have directed your attention in the several other volumes of this series, this phase or form of Personal Power is one of the instruments or channels of expression of the powers of the “I” element of your Self—of that fundamental Something, the existence of which you assert when you say “I AM I,” and which is the base and ground, the centre and the focal 5 6 THOUGHT POWER point, of all of your conscious states.

In every hallowed fable, legend, and maxim known the world over-from the parables of Christ to the tales of Ali Baba to the riddles of the alchemists-there hides a secret. For those with eyes to see it, this secret can be life-changing. It is so simple that it hides in plain sight, seen yet unseen every day. Writing with the characteristic precision and vividness that has made him one of the greatest inspirational authors of the past century, Robert Collier reveals this secret in his little-known classic, The Life Magnet. What is this great secret? Simply this: The images that you impress upon your subconscious mind-whether of abundance or lack, failure or success-outpicture the surrounding world in startling and unexpected ways. In The Life Magnet, Collier shows how to overcome mental obstacles and use this hidden power-which he variously calls the Divine Mind, the subconscious mind, the "Genii-of-your-Mind," and the "Open Sesame of life." Whatever the name, Collier illustrates how it works, why it works, how to summon it, and how to control it for higher good in your life. file download gafyn.pdf Robert Collier / Two hot shot pilots with skills in the area of cropdusting and water bombing forest fire met up in Arizona where they found romance, adventure, and more trouble than they / 167 pages / Fiction / 2002 / Flight to Saguaro / ISBN:9781553951773 Life OSU:32435024164295 / Your needs are met.

You. Change. Now!
Welcome to You. Change. Now! ongratulations on your decision to improve the quality of your life. Think of that word - Decision. According to Webster, to decide means C to "to make a final choice or judgment". Another way to look at it - decision is the opposite of incision. Incision means to "cut into", decision means to "cut off from". If I have the proper insight into why you are the possessor of this program, it is probably because you are ready to "cut off from" something you no longer want to tolerate in your life. Whatever it is, this transformational system can help you break free and achieve a higher level of success! The program you hold in your hands represents over 30 years of my personal study of people and success. I have witnessed this program change people from all walks of life, and I am confident it will do the same for you. I am humbled and honored to be given the opportunity, and I personally guarantee that the information included can help unleash the power to change! To come clean...I am not so naive or arrogant to believe that I created the "success formula" that is the foundation of this system. It is preceded by a bounty of writings and observations from the past. From an early age I had a desire to succeed, and during high school became a student of the success classics. I was influenced by the powerful writings and concepts dispensed by the vintage masters...Napoleon Hill, James Allen, Catherine Ponder, Joseph Murphy, Charles Haanel, Robert Collier, H.

Psychiana: a 20Th Century Revitalization Movement?
LAMBDA ALPHA JOURNAL PAGE 39 PSYCHIANA: A 20TH CENTURY REVITALIZATION MOVEMENT? M. Lynne Thompson Department of Anthropology Wichita State University - Alpha of Kansas During the first half of the 20th century, a new and unusual religion called Psychiana reached millions of people around the world. Its founder claimed to be a prophet who talked with God. With no churches and minimal organization, Psy- chiana was said to be the world’s seventh largest religion. Unlike any other before or since, this religion was almost entirely conducted through mail order – with a money-back guarantee. One might well ask why, if this religion was so popular and influential, is there little knowledge of its existence. One also may wonder why and how it found such a widespread audience. Finally, the question must be asked how other religions with similar messages succeeded and still survive while Pyschiana virtu- ally vanished less than 25 years after its inception. From an anthropological perspective, Psychiana and its founder, Frank B. Robinson, bear many of the marks of a revitalization movement and the charis- matic personality who leads one. This paper will examine and compare the char- acteristics of Psychiana, from its inception to its demise, with the typology of re- vitalization movements provided by Anthony F.C. Wallace. It will include infor- mation from Robinson’s personal manuscript collection (now housed at the Uni- versity of Idaho and compiled by Judith Nielsen), as well as excerpts from a book by Charles S. Braden, professor of History and Literature of Religions at North- western University, who personally interviewed Robinson.
