Inhaltsangabe

"It is not enough merely to have a sound mind-one must also learn how to use it, if he would become mentally efficient." -W. W. ATKINSON What if you could strengthen your concentration, sharpen your intuition, and develop the hidden powers of the mind? In these practical and fascinating lessons, William Walker Atkinson explains how thought, attention, and will-power shape our mental life. Combining early psychology with the principles of the New Thought movement, he offers a practical method for developing mental focus, personal influence, and inner strength. Practical Mind-Reading explores thought-transference, mental rapport, and the subtle ways minds influence one another, while Your Mind and How to Use It presents a clear and accessible guide to the workings of the human mind and the disciplined use of thought in everyday life. Direct, practical, and surprisingly modern, these teachings remain a powerful introduction to mental training and personal development. This volume contains two complete works: Practical Mind-Reading - lessons on thought-transference, telepathy, and mental influence Your Mind and How to Use It - a practical manual of mental training and applied psychology Ideal for readers interested in mental training, intuition, psychology, and New Thought philosophy. Excerpt: "Nearly everyone has had evidences of Mind Reading or Thought Transference in his or her own life. Nearly every one has had experiences of being in a person's company when one of the two would make a remark and the other, somewhat startled, would exclaim, "Why, that's just what I was going to say," or words to that effect. Nearly every one has had experiences of knowing what a second person was going to say before the person spoke. And, likewise common is the experience of thinking of a person a few moments before the person came into sight. Many of us have suddenly found ourselves thinking of a person who had been out of our minds for months, or years, when all of a sudden the person himself would appear. These instances are so common as to be generally recognized, without question. These occurrences have given rise to the two common "sayings," viz., "Speak of the devil and his imps appear," or "Speak of angels and you hear the rustle of their wings.""
