Imagine your ancestors had recently descended from treetops starting to live in caves—and began to walk upright than running on all fours…
Imagine now your ancestors next discovered how to use heavy wooden clubs—to defend themselves against their enemies, or to hunt wild beasts with—rather than using their bare hands. They learned, through trial and fatal error, with a little ‘step-up’ of physical power—now made their blows many times more mighty…
Now imagine a traveling man confidently walked up to you carrying a bow and arrow. He explained in simple detail, not only how to build, but how to effectively use with little ease of effort—to be able to strike a deadly aim from a distance—far from other clubs or sharp claws and teeth…
And imagine you readily embraced this bow and arrow receiving mighty prestige and power in your clan…
And then your special status was slowly fading for others had observed, asked questions, built and taught themselves to use ‘your’ bow and arrow just as efficiently as you…
And now imagine the same traveling man came back telling you in simple detail about a lever-action repeating rifle…
- Would you not believe him?
- Would you not trust him?
- Would you not go to great lengths of time and effort to get this new and superior aim?
Sure you would!
Well, in the 21st century by fully understanding and applying the Laws of Mental Efficiency for yourself—knowing:
"that a thoroughly trained and efficient mind is the only universal asset in the world… even money cannot compete with it, and is powerless without it. Every country, every trade, every profession is eager to welcome and employ it. It is the open sesame to the best society; it is the key to success in life."
—will give you as much power desired—as owning a lever-action repeating rifle would have been handed over with cherished prestige to your caveman ancestor over his clan members.
Surely you would want to take advantage of this ‘step-up’ of mental power?
Or, will you turn away and let others learn how to use that rifle while you struggle to properly bend the bow? Will you turn away knowing:
"The efficient brain that made the savage a king, makes the captain of industry today. We all have the same weapon. The only difference between success and failure in its use is a question of efficiency."
Are you sure about turning a deaf ear?
A Life-long Self-Education
- To HAVE that efficient brain, so desired, to be able to bring out all the possibilities lying within the recesses of the mind—to fully arouse, develop, and command your unique abilities, skills, talents—is indeed a life-long personal development learning process—not to be interrupted.
- To KNOW HOW to think—not be told WHAT to think is what separates those who move forward in THEIR OWN life and those who simply ‘step-sideways’.
- To REALIZE by following its teachings, four vital elements are implanted and expanded upon in the mind—Purpose, Interest, Energy, and Will-power—the elemental parts of human action.
- To WAKE UP to the fact that life is action and that the joy and zest of things consist in "traveling onward," and not simply ‘arriving’ later, if at all!
- To STOP dreaming success and achieve success desired requires synthetic thinking and strenuous endeavor with an efficient mind—making the most and best of the circumstances presented. Just as our ancestors did as they explored, settled, and developed the lands they sought.
Now when you take that ‘step-up’ sending your "mental toolbox" to school, so to speak, this is first and foremost addressed. And I quote the following from these common-sense instructions found within the Pelman System:—
What is your object in life?
"The question is fundamental because it concerns your mental efficiency. Be cheerful about it, even if you feel you have missed some of life’s good things. The better day is dawning.
"In order to get the best out of yourself you must have an aim in life: not a general aim, but a particular aim: not a mere desire to be successful in everything that you undertake, but a definite purpose to accomplish a definite end.
"There are many reasons for this, and chief among them is that without a proper plan of life your mental ability will not be developed. As it is highly important that this truth be realized to the full, we propose to discuss it in greater detail.
Consciousness of Aim (or Purpose)
"What does an aim, or purpose, imply? It implies that you are moved by a specific desire or feeling:
- to be an artist,
- to abolish intemperance,
- to enter the field of big business,
- to develop a useful invention,
- to write the American novel, or
- perhaps to make a name for yourself in politics.
"In your mind there must be a clear idea, which means that your intellectual powers are intimately concerned with your aim, but the idea is so suffused with emotion that one naturally calls it a Feeling rather than a Thought. There is more heart in it than head.
"The significance of Feeling, as a mental function, becomes evident when it is realized that a strong desire to achieve, to attain, to master, to conquer, is the basis of every plan of life. There are good desires and there are bad ones; there are others which might be described as neutral.
"Consequently, when formulated and acted upon, some are found to be beneficial in results just as others are obviously injurious. In every case it will be found that Feeling is the motive-power that stimulates the intelligence and prompts the will to action."
Are you prepared to improve yourself to finally have the life that you say you want?
Are you prepared to stop talking and start doing… finally?
To find out about the other three elements of human action WILL REQUIRE YOU to take that ‘step-up’ and start your personal education by taking action—NOW.
The end.
Remember, What matters most in your life is YOU and what you do with your life.
