" So true is this that when a man earnestly
applies himself to remedy the defects in his character, and makes
swift and marked progress, he passes rapidly through a succession
of vicissitudes." ~ James
Allen
The quote above was taken from a book called -
As
A Man Thinketh by James
Allen (1864 - 1912).This book
should be mandatory reading for all males in their last years
of Secondary School to promote correct thinking and aid mental
health issues. Anytime is a good time to sit down read and
contemplate what this really means and how much of our life's
outcomes are from they way we have thought about our circumstances.
It seems that 'right thinking' has become a popular source of
conversation with the release of "The Secret " which is really all
about the Law of Attraction which is governed by your thoughts and
feelings.
Take the time to read this book and other
sections of our web site which lists some tremendous books to
read to take you to a higher source of achievement and
success which will aid men's mental health. This can be especially
useful when dealing with difficult situations in your
life to avoid destructive emotional issues in
personal and interpersonal relationships which dramatically
effect everyone concerned and can lead to poor mental
health.
Use it also to plot out a future with a life
purpose plan to build upon and develop. Your life purpose will give
you direction because it was what you were born to do. Just take
the first step towards it and make a plan. You don't have to quit
your job just steer your energies in the right
direction.

health go to - Prentice Mulford, M Scott Peck and Ken Wilber
