Personal Development
...through self help

Personal development has many facets but As a Man Thinketh by James Allen encapsulates significant age-old truths many of us learnt at the knees of our grandparents.

His succinct elaboration of these verities spawned the vast personal development industry we know today.

In fact, Earl Nightingale, recognized by many to be the founder of contemporary personal development, summed them up in his book The Strangest Secret. In essence, Earl Nightingale agreed with James Allen that we become what we think about in our personal development.

As James Allen says:

“Man is made or unmade by himself; in the armory of thought he forges the weapons by which he destroys himself. He also fashions the tools with which he builds for himself heavenly mansions of joy and strength and peace. By the right choice and true application of thought, man ascends to the Divine Perfection; by the abuse and wrong application of thought, he descends below the level of the beast. Between these two extremes are all the grades of character, and man is their maker and master.”  

In fact, Napoleon Hill got it right when he declared that all wealth is created by the human mind.

So, come with me as we evaluate some of the bestselling personal development and self-improvement programs available today because we can all learn from such master craftsmen as Zig Ziglar, Napoleon Hill, Earl Nightingale, Richard Carlson, Joe Vitale, Denis Waitley and Anthony Robbins as they teach us all about personal development.
