As A Man Thinketh
Assessment by Linquist Asiebela (Kenya)

PART ONE: Content Review

I Thought and Character
A man is literally what he thinks, his character being the complete some of all his thoughts. Action is the blossom of thought, and joy and suffering are it's fruit.
A noble and God-like character is not a thing of favor or chance, but is the natural result of continued effort in right thinking, the effort of long-cherished association with God-like thoughts. Man is made or unmade by himself. Man is the master of thoughts, the molder of character, and the maker shaper of conditions, environment, and destiny. Man is always the master, even in his weakest and most abandoned state. For only by patience, practice, and ceaseless importunity can a man enter the door of the temple of knowledge.

II Effect of Thought On Circumstances
A man's mind may be liken to a garden, ---- whether cultivated or neglected, it must and will bring forth. Every man is where he is by the law of his being; the thoughts which he has built into his character have brought him there. The soul attracts that which it secretly harbors, that which it loves, and also that which it fears. Following the inmost desire, aspirations, thoughts, by which he allows to be dominated, a man at last arrives at their fruition and fulfillment in the outer condition of his life. Circumstance does not make the man; it reveals him to himself. Men do not attract that which they want, but that which they are. Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but they are unwilling to improve themselves; they therefore remain bound. Good thoughts and actions can never produce bad results; bad thought actions can never produce good results. Suffering is always the effect of wrong thought in some direction. It's an indication that the individual is out of harmony with himself, with the law of his being. The sole and supreme use of suffering is to purify, to burn out all that is useless and impure. There could be no object in burning the gold after the dross had been removed.
Happiness, health, and prosperity are the result of a harmonious adjustment of the inner with the outer of the man with his surroundings. A man only begins to be a man when he cease to whine and revile, and commences to search for the hidden justice which regulates his life. Let a man radically alter his thoughts, and he will be astonish at the rapid transformation it will effect in the material condition of his life. Men imagine that thoughts can be kept secret, but it cannot. It rapidly crystallizes into habit, and habit solidifies into circumstances. A man cannot directly chose his circumstance, but he can chose his thoughts, and so indirectly, yet surely shape his circumstances. Effect Of Thoughts On Health And Body:

Change of diet will not help a man who will not change his thoughts. Clean thoughts make clean habits. He who has strengthen and purify his thoughts does not need to consider the malevolent. If you would perfect your body, guard your mind. If you would renew your body, beautify your mind. There is no physician like cheerful thoughts for dissipating the ills of the body; there is no comforter to compare with good will for dispersing the shadows of sorrow and grief.

IV Thought And Purpose
Aimlessness is a vice, and such drifting must not continue for him whom will steer clear of catastrophe and destruction. A man should conceive of a legitimate purpose in his heart and set out to accomplish it. ------ He should make this purpose his supreme duty and devote himself to its attainment not allowing his thoughts to wander away into ephemeral fancies longings, and imaginings. To put away aimlessness and weakness and to begin to think with purpose is to enter the rank of those strong ones who only recognize failure as one of the pathways to attainment. He who has conquered doubt and fear has conquered failure. Though allied fearlessly to purpose becomes creative force.

V. The thought factor in achievement.
All that a man achieves and all that he fails to achieve is the direct result of his own thought. He who has conquered weakness and has pushed away all selfish thoughts belongs neither to the oppressor nor oppressed. He is free. A man can only rise, conquer, and achieve by lifting up his thoughts. There can be no progress nor achievement without sacrifice. The higher he lifts his thoughts, the greater will be his success, the more blessed and enduring will be his achievement. Achievement of any kind is the crown of efforts, diadem of thoughts. By the aid of self-control, resolution, purity, righteousness and well-directed thoughts among ascends. He who would accomplish little need sacrifice little; and he who would achieve much sacrifice. He who would attain highly must sacrifice greatly.

VI. Vision and ideals
The dreamers are the survivers of the world. He who cherishes a beautiful vision, a lofty ideal in his heart, will one day realize it. To desire is to obtain; to aspire is to achieve. Your vision is the promise of what you shall one day be; your ideal is the prophecy of what you shall at last unveil. The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. Dreamers are the seedlings of reality. You will always gravitate to words that which you secretly love most. You will become a small as your controlling desire, as great as your dominant aspirations. In all human affairs, there are efforts and reserves; the strength of the effort is the measure of the result. The vision that you glorify in your mind, the ideal that you enthrone in your heart ñ this will build your life by; this you will become.

VII Serenity
Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom. It's presence is an indication of ripen experience, and of a more than ordinary knowledge of the laws and operations of thoughts. The more tranquil a man becomes, the greater his success, his influence, his power for good. Self-control is strength. Right thought is mastered. Calmness is power. Character is the expression of that which is in the inside of a man. It's by ones behaviour that we are able to tell what his thoughts are. We decide what to be, and where to be by the thoughts we entertain in our lives. The thoughts of a person will always reveal him out. We always respond to situations by the way we think. Its not that which we want that we get but that which we give. When we start to improve on our thoughts, our circumstances changes. Choosing our thoughts means choosing our circumstances. That which we feed our mind, is the same that we are feeding our body with. Cheerful thoughts come along with good appetite unlike evil thoughts. When your thoughts are not focus on a particular purpose in life, any thing that comes on your way will sweep you, and you may end up not reaching your destiny. When we sacrifice our thoughts to think wisely, we progress and achieve good results in life. There can never be an achievement without giving something in the first place. No pain no gain. People who have visions and dreams are people who have a passion for life. These are people who are a life. They feel the real taste of life from all angles. Vision is the strong force that gives a person the strength to face another day. No dreams and visions, no life. When a man is calm and compose, people will always admire him; furthermore if this person has a purpose and a direction, people will follow him even when he is wrong. Doesn't the Holy Bible say that, even when a full is silent, he will be consider wise.

PART TWO: Personal Impact And Practical Value.

What is it that differentiates man from wild beasts and other animals, other than thought? We are where we are today as a result of different thoughts other people had. Just as the book is telling us, when we have a long-cherish association with God-like thoughts, we can change our homes, our villages, nations, and the whole world at large into a suitable habitant for all creations.

I use to wonder why certain people love to do some things and not others; but what I have discover is that what a man loves is a clue to what he is. It's only reviling who he is.

Most people suffer today in our society just because they have lived to accept certain thoughts of failure and defeat to the extend that they are surrounded by a wall of poverty, resentment, jealousy, and distraction. The only remedy is for them to change their thinking and the world around them will change immediately. My dad use to tell us that whatever you say is what you get; even when you see defeat in front of you, just be optimistic and speak a positive word, you may be surprise to find that it was a stepping stone to elevate you to a higher level of honor and glory. We should always be careful and guard our minds from every trash that comes on our way.

Living without purpose, is like living in darkness. You fumble for things and you will never come to know what is right or wrong for you. It's like one who is lost in a desert or an ocean without a compass; therefore he keeps on rotating in the same circles time and again. Any nation, organization, or leadership that will be successful, must be govern by a soul purpose. Purpose attracts commitment and determination.

For every successful achievement that we see today there was a sacrifice. In life there are those who have made it, and others have not. There are those who are still struggling and there are those who have despaired completely. Most people want to be on top, but they are unwilling to sacrifice. It will never work. We need to learn from those who went before us and know that whatever that has been obtain rightly (through sacrifice) is highly treasured.

Every time when I go to bed, and when I wake up, there is always something that gives me some strength, and that is vision and dreams. I always have some feeling that one day, sometime, my dreams will become true; therefore I don't have to quit. This is what I believe; if there were no visions and dreams, life would be so boring. Everything about life would be eating, sleeping and waking up the same person. When people lack passion for their vision, they seem less alive. Life has pass them by, and sometimes the can not be sure they have ever lived.

Any person or any leader, who is leading people, Should always learn the act of calmness and self-control. Without this, people will not respect your leadership; in fact you will be as confused as the people you are leading. A father cannot come and start crying before the children just because he has failed to do one or two things for them. No. He will always assure them how he is in control and the children will always believe that there is no father like their daddy.

Therefore we need to be careful with the seeds (thoughts) that we plant in our gardens (minds), because what a man plants, the same shall he ripe. You sow a thought, you ripe an action; you sow action you ripe a character; you sow character, you ripe a product; you sow a product, you ripe a destiny. It all starts with a thought.

PART THREE: Summary

This is a book that has make me to start considering the things that I have been doing that have brought me to what I am today. It's a book that people should read now and then checking if they are drifting from the course of their lives.

Jonathan Living stone Seagull
As A Man Thinketh
Assessment by Linquist Asiebela (Kenya)

PART ONE: Content Review

This kind of thinking, he found was not to make one popular with other birds, as he spent whole days alone, experimenting. Victory was short- lived. He felt better for his decision to be just another one of the flock; no more challenges and no more failures. He felt guiltless breaking the promises he had made. Such promises are only for the gulls that accept the ordinary. One who has touch excellence in his learning has no need of that kind of promise. How much more there is to living .We can lift ourselves out of ignorance, we can find our selves as creatures of excellence and intelligence and skills. His one sorrow was not solitude, it was that other gulls refuse to open their eyes and see. Jonathan discover that boredom and fear and anger are the reasons that a gulls life is so short. With the two brilliant gulls, he saw that his body was growing as bright as theirs. For each of them, the most important thing in living was to reach out and touch perfection in that which they loved to do, and that was flying. Any number is a limit, and perfection doesn't have limit. Perfect speed, my son, is being there. The trick according to Chiang, was for Jonathan to stop seeing himself as trapped inside a limited body; the trick was to know that his true nature lived as perfect as an written number, every where at once across space and time.

In spite of his lonely past, Jonathan seagull was born an instructor, and his own way of demonstrating love was to give something of the truth he had seen to a gull who asked for a chance only to see truth for himself. The gull see farthest who fly highest. Precision flying is a step towards expressing our real nature. Any thing that limits as we have to put aside. A circle of curious gulls listening in darkness for hours on end, not wishing to see or be seen of one another, fading away before daybreak. You have the freedom to be your self, your true self, here and now, and nothing can stand on your way. It is the law of the great gull, the Law that is Whatever stands on that freedom must be set aside, be it ritual or superstition or limitation of any form.

The crowd grew larger everday, coming to question, to idolize, to scorn.
The price of being misunderstood; they call you a devil or they call you god.
You don't love hatred and evil, you have to practice and see the real gull, the good in every one of them, and to help them see it in themselves. Don't belive what your eyes are telling you, all they show is limitation. Look with understanding, find out what you already know, and you'll see the way to fly. An image of the Great Gull, and your whole body, from wing tip to wing tip is nothing more than your thought it self.

Jonathan Seagull did not mind what other gulls thought or felt. Other gulls wanted to appear popular by living according to what they had inherited just to please their leaders. Due to his determination, he was able to learn and acquire more speed in his flight. However, his success came along with and dangers which made him to feel resign for some time.

Jonathan seagull had great desire that could not allow him to accept the reality of being an ordinary seagull with limitations. This strong desire made him to forget the promises he had made, and found himself practicing with more enthusiasm than before. Even when isolated, he did not stop from his purpose: to learn to fly. He only wish that other gulls would open their eyes and see all the reason to living and flying.

With the other seagulls, which had come to take him higher, he found himself becoming like them. He found that the flock that you associate with would always determine how you would become. Finding gulls that share same principles as his, flying became easier. The advice of Chiang helped Jonathan to widen his view of perfection; always to aim higher because in life there is steal more to be unveil and learned. For one to be successful, he has to learn to overcome the thought of having limitations. There is potential in any seagull.

The only way to improve the lifestyle of Seagull was by demonstrating love in helping other gulls to understand the importance of flying higher. Jonathan had to put himself low, to the standers of other seagulls in order to demonstrate to them what flying is all about. More gulls desired to learn, but they were afraid of being spot by the counsel. With time, most of them could not control themselves any more, and they did not care what the law said or what the elders would say. When they discover that the secret is knowing your freedom, even those gulls that could not make it, they found themselves advancing their skills in flying.

Jonathan didn't mind the crowd, because different gulls had come with different motives. However he knew that those who were willing, they were going to learn something. Jonathan was clear; he did not want to be misunderstand because it would cost him a lot. Each gull had potential regardless of its appearance. The gulls had to learn that there is more to what the eyes can see. What a gull thinks is what it will become and what it will be.

PART TWO: Personal Impact and Practical value

In life, there are a lot of things that happen to people who have a burden for greatness and serving. One of them is Isolation. Just as Jonathan Seagull spent a lot of time alone experimenting things that appeared to be of no value to other seagulls, so is with us. Every time when you want to start something, you find opposition even from your very own. This is one of the most painful part that one experiences toward his success. Most people give up at this point just because they don't want to leave the comfort of being accepted in the society. The thing that people forget is that our places of comfort my turn to be our place of confinement. If you don't want to fly, then be comfortable with where you are.

This has happen to me many times. It has made me sometimes to decide not to share with people some of the things that are burning in my heart because they will never understand. I remember when I was young; I use to make my own guitars, which was an abomination to my parents. They could say that people who grow up like that, they normally end up playing music in nightclubs and bars. They could tell me that, we want you to be a learned person and a church pastor as well. If only they knew what was in me, all that I desire, more than music and pastoral work. When I got my first job, I bought a guitar. My mom was not happy. This is what she could say, 'why my son? Why? All that money you could have buy something good other than this. What is this going to help you with?'

People who have a strong passion for their destiny, even when they have decided to give up, they will find themselves back into it, because their life is bound in their desire.

Another wonderful thing that we are learning from this book is that when you know what you want, you should be careful with the people that you spend with, and more so you should desire to learn from your role models. This is because you will find you're self becoming like them. People who are not thinking of positive and great things in life, will always discourage you and make you feel that you cannot make it. They will always pull you down by telling you how impossible it is. In the society, we should always move with people who desire perfection. Those who feel that there is still more to be attained. There is never an end to learning.

When you find what you love, do it to the best of your performance. We should never allow our background and the environment to determine how far we can go. There are many things that will try to limit us, but this should only make us understand that the more the opposition the greater the destiny.

As a person who want to see this world a better place for everyone, I have decide not to listen to the past and the limitations that are surrounding me. I always face oppositions whenever I decide to take a step high towards my flight. For instance, I formed a music group that involved musicians from different churches with a common interest of supporting each other. When my paster heard of it, I received a stern warning to dissolve the group immediately or face the sacking and exparltion from the church. Almost all the musician's left me, and I was left with very few who were determine. Some times we do practice in the nights with much care not to be notice. What I have discover is that, when one start to do something, people don't want to associate with him especially when it looks like a failure.

There is potential in every one that God created. The secret is to lay aside all the limitations and see beyond what our eyes can see. Also we should work on our thoughts, because what you think is what you are.

Jonathan Seagull never stop his effort to love and train other seagulls, and with time they came to appreciate him. Now my parents are overwhelm on how a guitar can help someone to eat, dress well, live in a house, and even send them some money. I don't play in nightclubs and discos as they thought. They use to think of university degrees; but is it over? Recently I pay my dad a visit upcountry and found that he had preserved one of the guitars that I had made saying that, success can be find in anything so long as you are ready to do it to perfection.

PART THREE: Summary

This is a book that every one should read. It's so helpful to any one who is dreaming great dreams. It's for all those who are yearning for more in life. All those who are willing to go deeper depths and higher heights to unveil the hidden treasures of life.

The only thing that the author has not talk much about is faith. Reference: 'forget about faith,' Chiang said it time and again. 'You didn't need faith to fly, you need to understand flying.' I think apart from understanding you need to have some trust/confidence that when you put yourself into it, it's going to work more than what you know. Nevertheless I recommend this book. I wonder if there has been anyone who has ever been successful without going through this experience that the book is talking about.

PART II - PERSONAL IMPERCT AND PRACTICAL VALUES

In this generation, knowledge has increase and most people have great ideas on the vision and things they want to do and become. However, very few people live to fulfill their dreams and visions. This are the people who have discover the secret of success through a positive mental attitude.

Everyone wants to be great, but people don't want to pay the price of entering the gates of greatness. It's only a positive mental attitude that can make one overcome all the hindrances that block people from receiving the fruits of their treasured vision.

Success through a positive mental attitude has put me into motion. I will not sit back and wait for things to take their course. I will cause things to happen. If you don't decide what you want to do, the world will take you wherever it feels like, and you may end up in a wilderness you never desired. Now is the time to act!

In times of necessity, we should learn to see well because this are the times that we may either improve our lives or worsen the situation. This book has made me to change my perspective on the term call problem.

We are creators by nature, which means we initiate changes. The moment we initiate changes, we create problems. Problem is the key to our significant. God created you and me to be a walking solution to someone with a problem. Our lives are only meaningful when we solve problems.

The starting point to all achievements is definiteness of purpose. I should have a time frame work for the things I want to achieve and a deadline to when they should take place. My daddy normally says that the things that you are doing now will determine your tomorrow. No matter how much you desire, if you cannot change your habit, you cannot change your future. Your habit is a permanent you.

One of the problems that is facing the people today and especially the third world countries, is that people live as though there is never tomorrow. We should have both short and long site in order to blend our destiny.

Good health, love, work, and happiness, should dominate my life. Success is not only in having lots of money; but is mostly living in good health, love, happiness, and being at peace with each other especially your creator.

Everything in life worth having, is worth working for. When you get that which is rightful yours in the right way, everyone will appreciate you in the society, and even God will be looking at you and say, ì This is my beloved son;' because your ways are upright. There is a Swahili saying that says that whoever toils in the sun, will eat under a shade. That which you have work for, will always be sweet when you get it rightful.

To learn one must pay the price. Knowledge? You must seek it out. And once you find it apply it. Even the Bible says, my people perish for lack of knowledge.

Success through a positive mental attitude has changed my life. That which I want I must get it though a PMA. Therefore, I have decide to look where no one is looking, do what other people fear to do, go where they don't go, and once I am inside, to ask for divine guidance. I just must be a different person in order to achieve extremely great results ever.

PART III - SUMMARY
This is a very powerful book. When you read you not only get the message the author is passing across but also you get motivated into action. It's a book that talks on why the state of your mental attitude is very important, because it will determine your life. The way to success is very simple: A Positive Mental Attitude.

Create a real magic zone in your mind. You are a spiritual being having a human experience and in this spiritual realm there are no limitations.
Affirm your self as a non- limited person.
Develop a new mind ñset towards the concept on intuition.
Discover the secret that sits in the center and knows. Seeing into nothingness-that is the true seeing, the eternal seeing.
Learn to learn through knowing and trusting rather than doubting and fearing.
Affirm that your intentions creates your reality.
Experience surrender and satori.
Learn to act as if the life you are visualizing were already here. An expert is somebody who believe in his own expertise and isnít afraid to act on those feelings.
Live according to your spiritual self first and your physical self second.
Study the paradox, ì you can never get enough of what you donít want.î
Ask nothing of anyone and practice unconditional acceptance.
Begin to develop authentic power for your self.
Practice daily meditation.

CHAPTER 4
Real Magic And Your relationship
----- All you behold; though it appears without, it is within, in your imagination, of which this world of mortality ids just but a shadow.
Indeed, boundaries disappear when you commit yourself to miracles
CHAPTER 5
Real Magic And Your Prosperity
Circumstance do not make a man, they reveal him
You donít need anything else to experience prosperity. Prosperity is first and foremost a mind game.
Authentic power does not come to you from the acquisition of money, because without money you would then be power less. Authentic power comes from your soul, that place that is always within you.
CHAPTER 6
Real Magic And Your Personal Identity
Talent is really a quality that is defined through comparison.
Your are a genius when you know that you have the intellectual capacity to create your own happiness, and when you know whom or what to consult.
If you want to know what your thoughts were like yesterday, look at your body today. If you want to know what your body will be like tomorrow, look at your thoughts today.
Stay focus on what you are for rather than what your are against.
Keep those words, ìnow you know better,î high in your consciousness.
CHAPTER 7
Real Magic And Your Physical Health
Every thought you have is a miracle incapable of being explain away by logical scientific discourse.
CHAPTER 8
Real Magic And The Spiritual Revelation
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can change the world; indeed itís the only thing that ever has.
Thoughts in the shape of ideas can spread like wild fire through the universe.
Your thoughts create either prosperity or scarcity in your life.
Your thoughts create your physical reality.
A new idea is first condemned as ridiculous and then dismissed as trivial until finally, it becomes what everyone knows.

PART II - PERSONAL IMPACT AND PRACTICAL VALUE

For a long time I use to wonder and ask myself the same question that many people ask; why me? Why should it happen like this? However, now I have understand that every event that happens to me, there is an experience that I can use in a beneficial way even if I don't understand why it's happening then.

Our lives will only have a dramatic change when we fully understand our purpose. Purpose is the force that causes people to activate the continual flow of recourses from God to their respective fields of assignment. This is always about giving.

The purpose of life for every mankind is in giving out. There is something in you and me that the outside world is in need off. If you don't bring it out, it will be destroy in you hence destroying your life. When you share with others, that which you are giving will continue to grow and blossom in your life. Therefore, blessed those who can give without remembering and take without forgetting.

As a spiritual being in a physical body, this book has help me to eliminate all the limitations that were still bothering my life. I have the capacity to live a life of real magic and there is nothing that can stop me. In the spiritual real there are no limitations.

By the power of serving in love, which is compassion in action, I can go around influencing the world to be a better place for every one.

We should not be driven by fear and anger; but love should motivate us to serve each other. God is love. He who does not know how to love, does not know God.

Most people fail and become miserable in life just because they are busy comparing success with the lives of others. This should not be so. What I have learn is that one should stay focus on what he or she wants and have intellectual capacity to create own happiness. Because, you can never get enough of what you don't want.

My thoughts will create either prosperity or scarcity. Thoughts create physical reality. Thus far my life has reach and all that I have achieved or fail to achieve it has been as the result of my thinking. I have come to understand that I should not listen to my circumstances; rather I should follow that which I believe.

Everything starts with our thinking. Even the mighty legends that have been before us did not listen to the oppositions they faced, they listen to the voice that whatever a mind of man can conceive and believe, it will achieve.

Thoughts are so powerful that they either make you or break you; but they never leave you neutral.

Now it has become obvious that I can be all that I want. Beyond doubt, Iím sure of attaining my destiny and there is nothing no not one that can stop me. My life has change for the better. I never knew before that I have all it takes to be what I want.

This is it; I act as if the life that I visualize is already here. Every thought I have is a miracle incapable of being explained by logical, scientific discourse. Indeed, the boundaries disappear when you commit yourself to miracles.

PART III - SUMMARY

There are many good books that people can read, but this is one among the best books I can recommend. This is a book that has cause a great impact in my life.

When you read this book, you feel like you are listening to the author speaking to you passionately from his heart. This book has made me to see beyond the physical state of my life. I donít need anything else to experience prosperity. What I need I already have. Prosperity is first and foremost a mind game.

This is an authentic book. It does not violate the laws of God and neither does it criticize any religion. Furthermore, it does not attack scientific inventions and discoveries.

No matter how hard/stiff-necked you are, you can't read this book and fail to experience a change in your life.

I have enjoyed and love every bit of this book. Especially on the area of the purpose of life, meditation, the secret that sits in the center and knows; among others. I like this: Seeing into nothingness ñ that is the true seeing, the eternal seeing.

I wonder, can anyone read such like book and fail to change?

Your Sacred Self

PART I - Content Review

CHAPTER 1
Your life's Greatest Challenge
The act of observing affects the creation.

CHAPTER 2
Recognizing the Limits of Your Past
You own the body, you are not the body.
If you are what you do, then when you don't, you are not.

CHAPTER 3
Releasing Old beliefs
My past is nothing more than the trail that I have left behind. What drives my life today is the energy that I generate in my present moments.

Blaming your surroundings is a futile exercise because wherever you go, you are still there.

Rely on the message of the teacher, not on his personality.
By itself, your body has no purpose.

All people are in your life to teach you valuable lessons.

When you learn not only to abandon beliefs but to convert them into knowings, you will have only that inner knowing to consult when traumas surface in your life.
Your believes are transitory, your knowings are eternal.

CHAPTER 4
Banishing the Doubt
Mere knowledge is not enough, the knower must be known…Without the knowledge of the knower; there can be no peace.

You can not fail at anything. Everything you do produces a result. It is what you do with the result that counts. Labeling yourself a failure is meaningless.

When you know that you are on a spiritual mission, you become independent of the good opinion of others.

Your joy is divine-your suffering is divine.

CHAPTER 5
Cultivate the Witness
I realize that I am always free to let go and observe my life.

In my world, nothing ever goes wrong. You do not have problems, only your body has problems.

The witness does not identify with the problems. You see those problems as the concerns of the body which can be resolve without inner despair.

Self-knowledge is detachment…. When you know that you lack nothing, that all there is, is yours, desire ceases.

I am more than what bothers me.

CHAPTER 6
Shut Down the Inner Dialogue
Peace is not the absence of conflict. Peace is the experience of God.

The storms will continue in your life…Serenity will no longer be define as freedom from storms, but will be known as peace during that wild weather.

CHAPTER 7
Free the Higher Self from the Ego

No one is special. Specialness denies the perfect equality of creation. It also denies the totality of God's love.

CHAPTER 8
From Turmoil to Peace
You'll not find peace except the peace of God.

CHAPTER 9
From Deception to Truth
You do not need outside approval. More important, you need the truth so you can be in alignment with your higher self.

CHAPTER 10
From Fear to Love
For this purpose we have been created: To love and be loved.

When love is the focus of your life, you don't need to fear a poor performance. You know in your hear that you are much more than how you perform.

CHAPTER 11
From Outward Appearance to Inner Substance
Dignity does not consist in possessing honors, but in deserving them._
When you need more of anything to feel positive about your self, your are always in a race without a finish line, and you can not achieve spiritual bliss.
Feed before you are fed. Give before you get.

CHAPTER 12
From Striving to Arriving
I know that I am already whole and I need not chase after anything in order to be complete.

If you understand, things are just as they are. If you don't, things are just as they are.

CHAPTER 13
From Dominance to Tolerance
Never correct someone infront of others. No one appreciates being publicly corrected.

CHAPTER 14
From Toxicity to Purity
Remember, God does not play favorites. In reality, no one is any better looking or more gorgeous than any one else. The only difference between a flower and a weed is a judgment.

CHAPTER 15
Creating a Collective Spirit of Sacred Selves
None of us are separate from each other. Living on a round planet symbolize the impossibility of choosing side.

Everything hat is manifest in the material form is changing at all moments.
There is nothing more powerful than an idea whose time has come.

If you can't learn silence, you can't listen to anyone. If you want to listen from God, you must learn to accept silence as part of our lives.

You are not this physical body. Even when some parts of your body cease to function, the real you does not stop with them.

If you allow your past to dominate you, you'll never change to perform better because you will live to believe that you are your past.

When you know that you know no one nor anything that can stop you from this truth.
When you understand your purpose, you come to understand this truth that nothing goes wrong. Everything that happens contributes towards the successful destiny that you are aspiring to have.

Your body should not control you even for once. You own it. Detach yourself from its evil demands and never should you give in to its desires.

We are all the same created by one God. The only difference is the temples (bodies) that we have been put in.

Moving in love is the only way we can find it easy to accept that we are the same and one. Love penetrates all zones and hindrances.

PART II - Personal Impact

We are living today in a noisy and busy world where people have detached themselves from their true spiritual being. We have so much engaged ourselves in our physical being such that we are drifting from the true purpose of life. How can we get to hear the one who created us if we don't know what it means to be silent and meditate?

Your Sacred Self is a book that has really help me. I have been having a false understanding about myself, but now the truth is being unveil to me by the help of this book.

Many a times I have been in constant worry about my physical state, changes that are happening, my occupation, relationships, the past that wasn't successful etc. This among other things have even try to impose a threat in my healthy life. Now I have come to realize that I'm neither this body nor what I do. I own the body. The poor past should not make me feel like a failure by haunting me every time. My past is nothing more than the trail that I have left behind. What drives my life today is the energy that I generate in my present life.

In understanding our purpose, we need to go beyond the act of believing into knowing. Knowing gives you more strength than believing. As this book has help me to understand; when I know that I'm on a spiritual mission, I become independent of the opinion of others. I do not need outside approval. This is what used to trouble me; what will people say? What will they think of me now that I have venture into this?

Now the truth is becoming obvious as it sinks in my heart day by day. I know who I am and what I am for. Every time as I perform my duties and when I meditate I see myself on the path of my purpose proceeding unaware of the surrounding distractions.

For everything that happens, there is a purpose. There is nothing like a misfortune. Everything is in divine plan to reveal my purpose.

Whenever I feel low and negative feelings trying to depress me, I confess this words: In my world nothing ever goes wrong. I do not have any problems, only my body has problems. I'm the witness and I does not identify with the problems. The problems are the concerns of the body which can be solve without inner despair. Although the physical state can experience the pain, I don't have to carry the pain to my true self, which is divine. By doing this, the pain eventually disappears even in the physical. I'm divine and divine design shines through me.

The storms will continue in life. Serenity will no longer be defined as freedom from storm but will be known as peace during that wild weather.

No one is special. Specialness denies the perfect equality of creation. It also denies the totality of God's love. This does not mean that we should disrespect our leaders, but in as much as we respect them, we should know that we are all the same creation. They are vulnerable to mistakes just like anyone else.

I have learned that I should share my love to others. I should think of the welfare of others first. They are just like me. What I want they also want. Then why should I think of my self to be better than them? None of us are separate from each other. Therefore, for this purpose we have been created: to love and be loved.

Part 3 - Summary

Your Sacred Self is really an inspiring book. This book helps us to know our true identity. Right from the first page, you feel the urge to read more and know what the next inspiring words are about. This powerful book has helped me to go beyond the physical and connect with my divinity.

Your body by itself has no purpose. Its only when you come to understand your sacred self then you will be able to fulfill your purpose regardless of the oppositions that my arise.

This words: In my world, nothing ever goes wrong; have caused a new revelation in my life. I find myself confessing them every time when I'm confronted with any situation that causes fear and despair.

This book has also strengthened me in my Christian faith. Most of the things the write is talking about are agreeing with the bible.

I'm more than what bothers me. This words alone can help you live a happy life in spite of your circumstances. I'm already whole and I need not chase after anything in order to be complete. If you understand, things are just as they are. If you don not understand, things are just as they are.

Nevertheless, Your Sacred Self is a critical book. You need to read it with much care in order to grasp all the truth that the writer is talking about and not to misquote him. For instance, the author has strongly criticized the ego and the act of believing in things you have not proven. I'm afraid for people who feel low about themselves; this might contribute in destroying their incentive and self-esteem as well.

Above all, this captivating book is a good counter check for those who have engaged themselves in seeking more and more thinking that more is better to the extend that their lives are at stake. When you need more of anything to feel positive about yourself, you are always in a race without a finish line, and you cannot achieve spiritual bliss. I have enjoyed this book, I like it.

Assessment by Linquist Asiebela (Kenya)

PART 1 - Content Review

If it ain't broke, why are you fixing it? If the original idea was good, why are you tinkering with it?

CHAPTER 1
Your Self-image And How It Affects You
No real behavioral changes could take place unless the self-image was changed.
The winner is the man/woman who does not personalize poor results. Such a person can be disappointed with out feeling like a failure.
People always feel, act and behave according to what they imagine....This is because the subconscious mind cannot tell the difference between a real experience and one that is vividly imagined.

CHAPTER 2
How To Program Your Success Mechanism
Anything that can be learned, Can be reevaluated and challenged. Anything that has been challenged can be leaned with new data to replace the old.

Change comes about through awareness of negative self-image, by challenging the bad habits that supports this image, and by creating a new positive self image that allows us to act and achieve worthwhile goals.

By hearing yourself speak the thought,....It's a double reinforcement: your ears your voice giving the order. It makes your focus clearer.
The subconscious mind always says yes to every thing the conscious mind tells it.

The subconscious mind always move in the direction the in which the conscious mind tells it.

Once the conscious mind has made its selection, all the possible options are eliminated for that given moment.
Any path to success is defined by mistakes and corrections. Don't dwell on your mistakes-but don't be afraid of them either.
If you watch limits instead of destinations, you bump up against those limits every time.

CHAPTER 3
Fake It Till You Make It: Imagining Your Way To Success
Anything you imagine to be true is accepted as true by your subconscious mind.

Your behavior follows what you believe to be true.
Acting as if it were true will in effect make it true.
We act or fail to act not because of will as is believed, but because of imagination.

The broken record. You restate the negative comment in a non negative way, coupling it with the massage you want the other person to hear, and you repeat it the same way every time.

CHAPTER 4
Free Your Self From False Beliefs
Change is too scary. Yet often the only thing that keeps us from breaking out of our confining life patterns is a belief that a chain is holding us back.

CHAPTER 5
Give Your Success Mechanism Some Slake: Learn To Relax
Learn through subconscious repetition (when you are not even paying attention) but not through force of will. Relax

CHAPTER 6
Just Say Yes: De-stress Yourself With Drug -free Tranquilizers
Your stress comes not from an event but from your response to it and that response is nothing but a habit you can replace.
New habits are learned only through a constant repetitions.

A healthy mind in a health body.
Delaying the response breaks up and interferes with the automatic workings of conditioning.

CHAPTER 7
Live Life by Your Own Script: How To Chose And Set Goals
If you don't know what you want, you are granted not to get it. If you want to hit a target, you have to have got to have one.
If you can't commit to writing them down (goals) you won't commit to following through. If you won't commit to paper, you won't connect to reality.

If that goal doesn't include time a time-specific dimension, your horse will find any number of excuse for continuing to graze on the pasture. After all the rider didn't say when.

CHAPTER 8
Moving Ahead: From Goal Setting To Goal.....Getting.
Choose a series of rewards to give your self at each milestone.
If you can't stand the heat, don't get out of the kitchen; just turn down the heat.

Goal - a target for your creative mechanism to act on.

CHAPTER 9
Your Success Mechanism Revisited: Drawing A Blueprint For Change
Remember it took years of reinforcement to get you to believe your old tapes. Allow your self the time it takes to learn the new ones. You'll find that your patience was well worth it.

CHAPTER 10
Beyond The Self-image: Shaping Your Personality For Success
We are not on earth to live up to someone else's expectations. To make your unique contributions to the world, we each need to prize our individual worth and pursue our dreams.

It doesn't matter who is write, but what is write.

Change can be terrifying; old habits can be comforting even when we acknowledge that we want to change.

Be willing to make a few mistakes, to suffer a little pain to get what you want.

Confidence is built on an experience of success.

CHAPTER 11
Heading The Danger Signals: How To Avoid Failure.
No one is immune to negative feelings and attitudes.....The important thing is to recognize them for what they are and to take a positive to correct course.

It was frustration that led you to seek change in your life.

Self-image define our being, so it's up to us to work on it. It's not hard to replace old habits as people think, but by reaffirming to your self that change is possible, you'll attain it.

The outlined points shows that once you have confess it, you should not be afraid of mistakes and limitations because eventually you'll get it.

Believing it; will bring it. Don't be afraid of change. You will steel find a way of tackling the outcome that arises as the result of the change.

Relaxing and taking your time as you respond to events helps in avoiding stress and aggressiveness.
Knowing our goals is the first step towards success. However this is not just enough. You have to allow your self time as you work toward this change.

PART 2 - Personal Impact

There is nothing that is so horrible and terrifying than to have a poor self - image. When your self-esteem is destried, you live a life full of frustration and fear always. You no longer value anything about your self.

This book has helped me to restore some of the most important thinks I had lost in my life.

Some time back I worked in one among the best casinos in our country. Among the bosses who were supervising the work, there was a lady who made my life a really misery. She could criticize almost everything I did. Even when it was evident that my work was good, there was never a time she could see this.

This made me to develop a low self-esteem. I felt so low about my self that I stated to believe her criticism. Although it was her nature to talk to people like that, for me I was really affected. It reached to the extent that whenever she was around I could make silly mistakes because I was afraid of her and therefore I was focusing on the mistakes. Were it not for the directors who intervened by setting our shifts to differ, I don't know how it would have end up.

The subconscious mind always says 'yes' to everything the conscious mind tells it. The subconscious mind always moves in the direction the conscious mind points it.

The act of CRAFT (Cancel, Replace, Affirm, Focus, Train), Has really help me in training my 'Horse' to get to follow the new and right path of my life.

I have decided to fake it till I make it happen. Change can be terrifying; old habits can be comforting even when we acknowledge that we want to change. Psycho-cybernetics has help me not to be afraid making mistakes and even to be ready to suffer a little pain to get what I want.

Stress results from the way we respond outside events and not form the events themselves.

My experience with the lady at the casino did distress me. Although it is some time now, I have come to discover that I had not completely erased those old tapes. This is because I had developed a negative attitude towards women who are in leadership. Every time I could see them, I could see people who are up to looking for mistakes and shortcomings. Now I'm happy because 'craft' is helping me to overcome this completely.

The more tranquil a man becomes, the greater is his success, his influence, his power for good. This book has help me to understand that the act of delaying the response breaks up, and interferes with the automatic working of conditioning. The Bible says, be quick at listening and slow at answering. Self- control is strength. Right thoughts is mastery. Calmness is power.

For a long time I used to think; why do I have to write my goals? After all I know what I want. However I have come to discover that I was fooling myself. If some one had to ask me to explain my goals, I could not do it fully because I had not commiedt myself to writing and so I had only a glimpse of what I wanted.

If you can't commit to writing them down (goals), you won't commit to following through. If you won't connect to paper, you won't connect to reality.

One among the most important things I have learn and that will stick in my life completely is that; we are not on earth to live up to someone else's expectations. To make our unique contribution to the world, we each need to prize our individual worth and pursue our dreams.

PART 3 - Summary

This has been a book that I have happen to find at just the right time in my life.

If you are one that is distress and you have lost the vision to fulfill your goals, this is a recommendable book for you. It will turn you in the right path. If you are a wandering person with no define goal to achieve in life, this book will help you make a right decision.

I have loved and enjoyed every bite of this book. From the questioner, how to program your success mechanism, moving ahead from goal setting to goal getting, shaping your personality to success; among others.

I like this: The subconscious mind always says 'yes' to everything the conscious mind tells it. The subconscious mind always moves in the direction in which the conscious mind points it. What of this? Fake it till you make it. Imagine your way to success.

This is a powerful book. The writer use day to day life examples and also testimonials from people who have made it to show us that we can make it. Psycho-cybernetics 2000 is a book that will stand the taste of time in helping people of all generations. It's worth having it.

Giant Steps
Assessment by Linquist Asiebela

1. Discus the main ideas that you found most important in this book and discus why they were important to you.

There are no failures in life. There are only results. Success is the results of good judgment; good judgment is the result of experience; and experience is often the result of bad judgment.

Every action we take produces results. What we do with and after the results matters a lot. If you are a pessimist, you will always look for faults and the term failure will always appear. However if you are an optimist, you will always find something to learn and to give you strength in any results hence the term failure will be non-existent. This has helped me to have a positive attitude in life.

Clarity is power.

When one is precise in what he wants, he ceases to whine and commences to fulfill his goals. Clarity causes a clearer focus, which makes it easy to pursue your goals. This has given me the understanding to set my goals the smart way and have the assurance of fulfilling them.

Courage unused diminishes; commitment unexercised wanes; passion unexpressed dissipates.

Anything that is not put into use tends to lose its significance in our lives because our attention shifts to focus on other things. Therefore, I have to look for every opportunity in my life to put these qualities into use in order to strengthen them.

Old patterns must be replaced not just eliminated.

Elimination without replacement creates an empty room that will be yearning for something, which eventually my lead back to the same habit evicted. In order for me to be in a better position whenever I'm trying to get ride of the old habits that I do not need, I must look for something to occupy that space. This way, it will be much more easy for me to escape the danger of going back to the old habits.

Any pattern that is continually reinforced will become an automatic and condition response.

This is one major way of reaching perfection. The more exercises you do, the more you learn new skills. There is no way you can fail to improve. We can condition any behavior if we do it with enough repetition and emotional intensity.

Just because you don't see immediate result, does not mean you are not making progress.

Some of the things we do may immediately start to have a positive impact of which however our minds may not be in a position to grasp and understand immediately. Just because you do not see your desired result immediately, you don't have to stop. Keep on persisting and in the end, the impact shall be felt fully. This has helped me to always remember that the first action, however small, contributes to the final and grand results that I am anticipating. I don't have to quite.

Trying to achieve the pleasure of success without risking the pain of rejection would never work.

In the process of becoming successful, you come across people who may not share the same ideas and opinions as you. When you are rejected by some individuals, just understand that its not because you are wrong, probably, it may be they don't have the same ideas as you. Therefore, the pain of rejection should not stop you. This has helped me to become more strong and more aggressive as I pursue my destiny.

Any limitations you have in life are probably just the result of limited reference experiences.

Expand your references and you will immediately expand your life,
The more you continue to overcome ignorance, the more you expand your life and territory, and thus all limitations dissipate. The best way to subdue ignorance is by exploring the wealth of literature, stories, myths, poetry, music, talking to strangers etc. This has helped me by causing me to enjoy the beauty of life as my mind is set to gain more knowledge from all aspects of life.

Large solutions start with individuals who take small but consisted action that build into worldwide change.

The steps that we take towards success are very important however small they may seem to be. Non-the-less, if they will ever be fruitful, it calls for consistency. The mark of a true champion is consistency. It's all based on your habits. Every action that I take as an individual matters a lot if only I will be consistent.

If you want to play the game of life and win, got to play full out. Be willing to feel stupid, and be willing to try things that may not work. Other wise, how can you innovate? How can you grow and discover who you really are?

In life, many people are willing and really desiring to live successful lives, but they are afraid of the process. People fear to make mistakes and therefore they are not read to leave their comfort zones.

There is nothing wrong in trying. I will keep on trying regardless of what people may thing or say until I discover who I really am. In fact, what others may call stupidity may not be stupid to me. It may be a stepping-stone towards my destiny and latter on, they may see the point.

2. Can you relate the ideas or concept in this book to your personal circumstances in life such as your relationships, your beliefs, your goals, your values, etc? Explain.

Relating this book to my circumstances is that the ideas in this book are widening my relationship with others. In order to overcome limitations, one has to expand his references. The best way to do this is by improving my relationship to others, making friends, talking to strangers etc. The book supports the belief that we are related to each other and therefore I should always think globally.

This book prepares one to be ready to confront all the oppositions on pursuit to your goals. All my goals call for commitment. I value the act of growing and improving in anything I do just as the book is talking about consistency. The mark of a true champion is consistency. It's all based on your habits. The only true security in life comes from knowing that every single day you are improving yourself in some way.

3. What are the most important new ideas or concepts you learn from this book? Please explain.

There are no failures in life. There are only results. Success is the result of good judgment; good judgment is the result of experience; and experience often is the result of bad judgment.

This idea has helped me to completely eliminate the fear that comes along with term failure in life. In everything I do, definitely there are results. What I do with the results and after the results determines and shapes may life. The results may be pleasing or not, however, above all I will have learned something. Therefore the term failure does not exist.

Courage unused diminishes; commitment unexercised whines; passion unexpressed dissipates.

This idea has helped me to start looking for opportunities, however small they may seem to be, so that I can put into action the qualities that I have in order for me to keep on growing.

Just because you don't see immediate results, it doesn't mean you are not making progress.

This has cause me to be patience and consistent and never to quiet easily. It has strengthened my commitment.

4. Has this book challenged or changed your thinking in any way? If so, explain how?

This book has changed and challenged my thinking in that I should not struggle in life. I should perceive life as a game. I should not be so conscious of what other people may say or think about what I do. If you want to play the game of life and win you've got to play full out. Be willing to feel stupid, and be willing to try things that may not work. Otherwise, how can you innovate? How can you grow and discover who you really are?

5. Are there ideas in the book that you totally disagree with? If so, why?

There are not any.

6. What did you find most helpful and least helpful in this book?

The section where: questions are the answer. These two questions: What have you learned today? And; when am I going to do something unusual and new? They may seem ordinary questions, but this time I have come to understand them in a different way. They have become a great help in my life.

I didn't like the idea that the writer used to arrange the book into a 365 daily lesson. I have a feeling that this limited the author by confining him to fit his ideas into the 365 daily lesson plan. If he would have avoided this in writing the book, I think the book would flow much better.

7. In 50 wards or less, please describe the main idea the whole book is trying to convey.

This is a great book talking on how larger solutions starts with individuals who take small but consistent actions that build into worldwide change. We can condition any behavior if we do it with enough repetition and emotional intensity.

Unconditional Life
Assessment by Linquist Asiebela

1. Discus the min ideas that you found most important in this book and discus why they were important to you.

-People have to be transformed before the crisis. If not, they may find themselves with not enough time to enjoy the life that suddenly seems so worthwhile.
Most people have the habit of postponding their engagements mostly because they are afraid and not ready for the added responsibilities and tasks that comes along with the same. This has caused many people to regret of the wasted years when they discover that they don't have the physical ability to fulfil the tasks that they evaded of which by then there is a demand and a necessity for them. And if happens that they endure to do them; they don't live to enjoy them.

-To get somewhere, you have to leave somewhere.
For any progress to take place, there must be an action. This action involves leaving some things and places to stick to others. This helped me to understand that I should appreciate the moves that I make if at all I'm intending to get to any better standards in life.

-By itself, nothing out there has any definition without a perceiver.
Everything we see is of significance because we can observe and give our judgment. It's our attitude and perception that gives life a meaning. Therefore, I have to work on my attitude towards life and make it beautiful.

-So long as our happiness depends upon objects out there, we are their prisoner. We have given our freedom away to things.
The world and all that is there in is always in constant change. Events always happen in our lives leading to others. If we want to live a healthy and happy life, we ought to set ourselves free from objects. They should not posses us rather we should posses them.
This has helped me to overcome being distress by petty things that happen around me. They should not rob me of my joy.

-We exist beyond law, beyond human and biological destiny.
Our lives would be more miserable if only we were bond and limited in this physical body. We have the ability to excel beyond the boundaries and limitations that our physical eyes can see. This is a God given ability and favour to us. I trust and believe that there are no limits. I can perform effectively with this knowledge ringing inside my heart.

-All of us are radiating our awareness out into the world and bringing its reflection back to us. If you awareness contains violence and dread, you will meet those qualities out there. If you awareness contains unconditional love, the world will that love.
What you give is what you get. There is no need wasting time blaming the circumstances. The world has not given you a raw deal. The qualities that you have and that you portray outside will attract people of the same traits towards you. I am to be more careful with the life that I share outside because the same will I get.

-Everything sorts itself out correctly and spontaneously once you become quiet.
Silence is one had thing for us to follow. Silence does not mean you are not in control and neither does it signify ignorance. In fact, being calm in times of crisis is a sign of a real champion. This is the only way I can get inspiration and know which steps to follow when I feel like I have reach the end.

-Renewal is one of life's primary urges, like live and freedom, but even more important since all life needs renewing to keep ahead of the tireless process of destruction.
Without renewal, it becomes so hard for one to get the incentive to learn new skills in whatsoever field he is performing. In order to that may lead one to stagnation, renewal is a must. From it you gain more momentum to go to higher levels.
This has helped me always whenever I feel fatigued and bored.

-The eyes refuse to see what the mind does not know.
Every vision is interpreted by the mind. The eyes just serve as a channel to delivering the vision to the mind. Therefore, if the mind see anything that it does not comprehend, it reject's it as unworthy thus the eyes have to reject it as non-existent.
This has caused me to know that sometimes I don't have to stick to all that my mind understands. I have to go beyond what I know and have the faith that there is more to life than I can see.

-You are burn by fear, not by fire.
Fear has paralysed and destroyed most people than actual thing that they dreaded. Most of the time what we fear is not what that turns out to be. This has helped me to understand that another great step towards success is to overcome fear.

-Perfection is both natural and possible, something must be denying it and holding it back.
There are people who were just like us but they refused to be limited with their circumstances and proceeded to perform unto perfection. Everything is possible. If one would have this concept, it's just a matter of time for the rest of the world to catch up with him.

-If you are ignorant about your own self, yourself will shrink to fit your conception.
You can never perform beyond what you believe. Whether you have been placed in a high position to serve and you are ignorant about your potential in that area, you will still fail in your duties. The same applies to if you have been placed in any low place to serve and you are aware of your true self, nothing will stop you from becoming what you are suppose to be. I have learn to improve on my level of awareness and excel.

2. Can you relate the ideas or concepts in this book to your personal circumstances in life such as your relationships, your beliefs, your goals, your values etc? Explain.

I can relate the ideas and concepts in this book to my circumstances in life. The concepts in this book have improved my relationship with others. This book has caused me to accept my self worth now, and know that I'm in a better position to do anything I want. It has caused me to see the need of cultivating a good relationship with each other, because in everyone there is a potential to success.
The book has driven me to accept and improve on the level of awareness as well as to being the silent witness. I believe in listening for divine guidance as the book has slightly talked of this.

The book has create a more strong force in my life that is propelling me towards fulfilling my goals, as it does not contradict my values in life.
This book has caused me to strongly believe that all things are possible. There don't have to be an explanation in order to believe this. Perfection is both natural and possible, something must be denying it and holding it back.

3. What are the most important new ideas or concepts you have learn from this book? Please explain.

-People grow old and die because they see other people grow old and die. Aging is not a fixed biological process; it's just a bundle of perceptions we have picked up, taken into our bodies and given a physical shape.

I used to think that it's a fixed process, however, this has open up my eyes. Here is the logic; why is it that we can have people of the same age but some will look more or even twice old than others? There is some truth in this.

-For every natural law that holds me down in my chair, another, still asleep in the field would allow me to fly.

From the examples and testimonies given in this book, I have been challenged to know that we have not yet fully exhaust all the knowledge and power invested in us. There is still more that the world is yet to see.

4. Has this book challenged or changed your thinking in any way? If so, explain how?

Yes, this book has challenged and changed my thinking many ways. It has shown me how my life is precious just as I am in spite of everything. Getting sick or being healthy is within my power. What I think and constantly believe matters a lot, because all the misery that people are feeling are basically self-inflicted.

The book has created a different level of confidence in my life. We exist beyond law, beyond human and biological destiny. Therefore if you are ignorant about your own self, yourself will shrink to fit your conception.

5. Are there ideas in the book that you totally disagree with? If so, why?
No any.

6. What did you find most helpful and least helpful in this book?

The most helpful thing I have found in this book to me, is the concept that the writer is trying to pass in the book based on this phrase: Human will dictate to matter and not vice versa.
The least helpful thing is that he has used so many examples based on people's lives experiences, which is good; however, some of them, he has left hanging with out giving us the exact message he want us to learn from them making the book even harder to understand.

7. In 50 words or less, please describe the main idea the book is tying to convey.

The book is talking on how one can improve and perform to the fullest irrespective of the circumstances. The writer talks on how you can change your attitude and you thinking to develop a consciousness that can lead to a happy and prosperous life. This is the message: Human will dictate to matter and not vice versa.

This is a powerful good book and also hard to comprehend. The author has not use prices points that one can use as a guideline to support the message being convey. It's as though he has gone it parables leaving the rest of the work for you to figure out. Also he has used advanced English.
Nevertheless, it's a very nice book.

The New Dynamics Of Winning
Assessment by Linquist Asiebela

1. Discus the main ideas that you found most important in this book and discuss why they were important to you.

Champions are propelled by desire, not compelled by fear.

The power of desire can drive one to do anything in spite of the opposition he my be facing. While fear can paralyze one to the extent that he my not be able to do even what he knows better.

Once we discover our desires and go ahead to work on them, we will have discovered a force that can never be stop. This has work in my life and I have decided to let the power of desire to energize me as a driving force into my championship.

It's 10 percent talent and 90 percent determination.

Some people fail in life just because they sit at the back and let the talent they have to work for them everything. They refuse to work hard and put in any effort, and therefore, their talent is as good as dead. I may be talented in particular areas of life, but the only way the talent will be fruitful is by me working on the 90 percent, which is guts and determination. Winning is the result of effort much more than ability. Every effort bares fruits, on the other had, ability alone cannot be productive.

Any goal can be achieved but first it must be broken down into a series of sub goals. Each smaller goal, should lead you, one day at a time to your lager goal.

Seeing yourself in the place that you are and where you want to be, may sometimes make you feel disillusioned that it may never work. It becomes easier for one to achieve the smaller goals as they lead to the lager goal. This way, you feel your effort rewarded hence increasing your moral. This has helped me now to start looking for every small action that I can involve myself into and that will lead to my destiny.

Winners work at doing things that the rest of the population won't even consider trying.

For you to stand out triumphantly successful, unique and outrageous, surpassing all the adversities of life; you have to go the extra mile. Do something beyond ordinary and normal. This is what makes winners different from the rest of the population because they risk, and in risking, you discover the hidden treasures of life. I have decided to be doing something extra and beyond normal in every area of my life. This is what will make me a champion because I will always be ahead and ready for any eventuality unexpected.

Mistakes are painful when they happen. But years latter a collection of mistakes is called experience.

No one likes to be associated with any kind of mistake. The fear of making mistakes has even restrained some people from making any progress in life. The truth is that in the life of any experience persons. If you look at the track of their lives, you will see a collection of mistakes. This has helped me not to be depressed by the few mistakes that I make, rather to learn form them and continue my course.

During visualization exercises, the mind can't tell the difference between a real performance and one that is imagined. And neither can the body.

What one visualize deeply, affects him physically because inside him he feels the pain and the ecstasy of what he is visualizing. My visions should always be positive so that they can drive my body in acting the same.

The more often you see the winners circle in your minds eyes, the sooner you will arrive there in person.

This is because what you see is what you get regardless of whether you know it or not. This has transposed my thinking and behavior into the right way towards my goals. I see myself as though I am already there because I know it's just a matter of time and I will be there.

Bend with the wind and you will be there when the hurricane passes and the good weather returns.

If you become so adamant and stand against the changes that may be appearing occasionally on your way to success, you may end up being destroyed completely. One is suppose to go with the times and the seasons order not to be left out. Goals are best achieve by going with the tide and with the wind, without force, anger, or impenitence.

There is a danger in not being acquainted with new changes that are constantly taking place in this generation today. Don't become so well-adapted to a specific set of circumstances that you can't change when conditions begin to fluctuate. Otherwise, you my find your self going the way of the dinosaurs.

From this I have learned to adjust and fit to every circumstance that are surrounding me. I am not offended by any adversity, but I learn lessons form them to grow stronger.

It's not who you are that holds you back. It's what you think you are not.

You may have great potential to do something in life, but as long as you think that you are not able to do it, you will not make it. Anybody who believes that he can make it, he will make it no matter how hard the task may be. As a man thinketh, so is he. I have stop to blame my circumstances, but rather to monitor my thinking.

If you've got the guts to say you are in control of your own destiny, the world will respect you for it, even if events prove you were wrong.

The world wants to identify with people who have got a purpose and direction in life. When you have a purpose and direction, people will follow you even when you are wrong. This calls for trusting your instincts and believing you are worthy. I don't need outside approval for me to continue with my vision.

School is never out for the winner. Education is a life-long process.

Every single day of our lives we are in the process of learning. But for those who grow into real champions, they always bare this in mind; they have to acquire as much knowledge as possible and the knowledge should be applied in their daily life to be productive. This has helped me to develop a passion for learning more and more.

2. Can you relate the ideas or concepts in this book to your personal circumstances in life such as your relationship, your beliefs, your goals, your values, etc? Explain.

This book has improved my relationship with others so much. It has made me to stop confining my relationship only to the people that I'm familiar with. It has shown me the importance of breaking daily routine and trying different and new things.

I am a person who believe that every effort; eventually is rewarded. As the book is stating, for you to sit at the comfortable and high chair, you must first start to prepare by going into the painful and vigorous process of practicing in advance.

There is no short cut into becoming a champion. I value sincerity and getting things the right way as the book is advocating. Be smart in everything you are doing, and also be mindful of other people's welfare.

3. What are the most new ideas or concepts you learned from this book? Pease explain.

Any goal can be achieved but first it must be broken down into a series of sub goals. Each smaller goal, should lead you, one day at a time to your larger goal.

I have been having a problem of straggling to achieve great goals without looking at the small goals I achieve on my way to the great goals. This has caused me to start appreciating myself for the small goals and to reward my self, making life more sweet and enjoyable.

During visualization exercises the mind can't tall the difference between a real performance and one that is imagined. And neither can the body.

From the book, I have understood that in visualization exercise, the body's muscles tend to use the same energy as in real thing. This has caused me to value and treasure the act of visualization.

Losers let it happen, winners make it happen.

The beginning of failing in life is not to make decisions, but to let things happen by default. As a winner, I have recognized that I should always be in motion. I should make decisions and cause things to happen.

4. Has this book challenged or changed your thinking in any way? If so, explain.

This book has challenged and changed my thinking greatly. It has ignited high expectations in my life like never before. Now there is a force propelling me to success, which is desire. I'm no longer compelled by fear. Nothing in the world can take the place of determination. Determination and persistence alone are omnipotent.

This book has challenged me into the act of visualization. I have started to see myself as though I'm already what I want. I speak to myself in the present form convincing my mind that I'm already there.

My mind has been driven off the negative feelings that have been confining and creating a small world for me than I deserve to have.

5. Are there ideas in the book that you totally disagree with? If so, why?

No

6. What did you find most helpful and least helpful in this book?

Winners believe that they have the inner resource to survive any number of setbacks on the way to achieving their goals. What you see real is what you get regardless of whether you know it or not.

I have really been help to develop a coachable spirit.

I don't have anything that I can single out as least helpful in this book.

7. In 50 words or less, please describe the main idea the whole book is trying to convey.

The book is talking on how one can improve his life and achieve his goals fully and become a champion in his life. The book shows you why paying the prize is a worthwhile thing and that it can never destroy you.

This is a powerful, attractive and compelling book. I have enjoyed every bit of it. For all the aspiring champions and even those who are not sure of what their lives hold for them, here is an authentic book that will drive you from your comfort zones into the world of action and reality. Failure, impossibility, frustration and hopelessness; can never be part of your life. Once you understand the truth, you can never just be the same. You are a winner as long as you have done your best.

Unlimited Power
Assessment by Linquist Asiebela (Kenya)

1. Discuss the main ideas that you found important to you and discuss why they were important to you.

- Power is the ability to act.

If one will ever produce any results, he has to take action. There is no question about this. If you can't put into action your knowledge, ideas, or wisdom; then you are of no significant in this life. This book has imparted something in my life. I just feel that I should be doing something; I have been motivated to be on motion. It will be so sad, so pathetic, and even unforgivable if I will sit back and do nothing after reading all this inspiring and compelling books. Therefore, the truth still holds; the great end of life is not knowledge but action.

- In this society, those with information and the means to communicate it have what the kings use to have - unlimited power.

Hear is something that has enlightened me to take steps towards strengthening my leadership skills. The ability to acquire information is very virtual in being successful in any age, however one has to go a step further and know the means to communicate it.
This book has clearly described how information is always within us and that we can easily access it especially in this generation. All this skills are within us, through the books, media, and even emulating the people who are doing what we desire. That's why I have come to full believe that anyone if he will make up his mind, he is in a position to elevate his life to whichever standards he desire.

- Successful people's lives have shown us time and again that the quality of our lives is determined not by what happens to us, rather by what we do about what happens.

I have been challenged so much by some of the revelations this book has impart in my life. For instance, being depressed, happy, successful, or a failure; is nothing more than a decision you have made out of your circumstances.

Nothing in the world has any inherent meaning. How we feel about something and what we do in the world are dependant upon perception of it. You can decide to term your setbacks as failures and live a miserable life, or you can see them as lessons and opportunities to advance in a new way.

From this book, we are getting the understanding that people who succeed do not have fewer problems than people who fail. The only people with no problems are those in cemeteries. It's not what happens to us that separates failures from success. It is how we perceive it and what we do about what “happens” that makes the difference. Also I have learned in times of adversities to remember that there are ways to see our biggest problems as our greatest opportunities - if only we can step out of our trained patterns of perception.

- If you ask for almost anything in the world in the right way, with enough conviction and enough commitment, to you will get it.

For most people at least they can afford to ask for the first time. But rarely do majority take a step further to persist using different tactics after they have been told No! I had been also a victim of this some time back. Whenever someone could tell me No! I could develop hundreds of reasons in my mind as to why I had been rejected, that could make me to completely discard my ideas as unworthy. However I came to discover that I was a fool.
There are no really success without rejections. I have had so many “No's” that it's no longer news to me. If you can handle rejection; you'll learn to get everything you want. None the less, I have also learn not to fool myself, there is no such thing as resistance, there are only inflexible communicators who push at the wrong time and in the wrong direction. I will never cease to ask come what may. It's a funny thing about life, if you refuse to accept anything but the best, you very often get it. Life will pay any price you ask of it.

- If you would be powerful, pretend to be powerful.

You cannot just come from nowhere and be what you had never dreamed or thought off. If you don't take any action towards your goals, it's very likely that you won't fulfill them. What this is teaching me is that I must start attracting what I want by acting as though I'm already there. In fact, this will ease my process of getting there because I will have known already how people perform when they are there.

- If you knew you could not fail, what would you do? If you were absolutely certain of success, what activities would you pursue? What actions would you take?

For a long time I had been viewing the act of achieving goals a complex and tiresome process that consumes time sometimes if one isn't well prepared. This had made me to console myself whenever I found out that time had caught up with some of my goals.
What this book has cause me to understand is that I am to lay aside all the limits that I have create in my mind insinuating that it's impossible. Then I must proceed towards my goals in a manner that indicates that there is no way I can fail.

Every time when I look at this questions, I feel energize. It's like they trigger my confidence to tackle any situation. Thus generally it's a matter of what you believe. Whether you believe you can do something or you believe you can't, you're right. Successful people make it because they believe they can.

- Results are inevitable. If you don't provide your mind with the programming of the result you desire, someone else will provide that programming for you. If you don't have your own plan, someone else is going to make you fit into their plan.

Time and again I have been learning that everything counts. Whether you decide to make decisions by default or to take action and stand responsible, there is no way you will evade the out come. The best thing is to make decisions and be responsible. Those who take responsibility are in power. Those who avoid it are disempowered.

I'm learning that I should be the driver of my own life. I ought to program my own mind and make my own decisions. If you don't believe you're creating your own world, whether it be success or failures, then your are at the mercies of circumstances. Things just happen to you. You're an object, not a subject.

2. Can you relate the ideas or concepts in this book to your personal circumstances in life such as your relationships, your beliefs, your goals, your values, etc? Explain.

Yes. Almost all the teachings in this book are in full agreement with my personal circumstances in life. The book has explained how we can develop good relationships by creating a rapport with each other through understanding their values. Who is he that does not want a mutual relationship with others?

I'm one person who believes that all things are possible. There are no limits other than those we have imposed upon ourselves as the book is attributing.

The book is also explaining how you can target and achieve his goals. Every individual values life. No one wants to live unhealthy life. This book has full explained this. I also don't like the act of selfishness and being greedy. This book has comprehensively covered all this as well.

3. What are the most important new ideas or concepts you learned from this book? Please explain.

- Sometimes people do produce outstanding results simply because they don't know some thing is difficult or impossible.

This has really built me. It has caused me to constantly desire to know the positive reports rather than the negative ones. Also I have learned that I don't have to go with the ideas of the majority about impossibility, but I should trust what my inner self says about possibility.

- Modeling can save people one of our irreplaceable resources - time.

We are in a world were people are anxious about time. The world is in a race. No one wants to waste time. People will do anything to recover the time they lost. And the good news here is that this book has given us a clue on this by introducing to us the act of modeling. By modeling, anyone can advance and become an expert in which ever filed he desires at the shortest time possible.

- People who learn rapidly can master even the most complex tasks because they chunk information into small steps and then reassemble them into the original whole.

This is a great technique I have learn from this book especially going by the example given on becoming a superb speller. It's intriguing. I have liked it.

- People are not lazy. They simply have important goals - that is, goals that do not inspire them.

When one is not inspired, he loses the enthusiasm and the energy to perform. People are not inspired because they are not connected to their original source that links them to their goals. They do things that they see others do and not what their intent is. This has helped me to stick to my source and also to help others who are drifting from their source.

- Substitute the word “But” with “And.”

This is the magic of rapport. It has challenged me. Instead of jumping to conclusions and cutting people short by using the word ' But', I have discovered the best way to create rapport which is the use of the word ' And.' No conflicts nor resistance can arise when one get to know the right way of avoiding the use of the word ' But.' I feel empowered to control any conversation in the most powerful yet non-violent way that gives everyone satisfaction.

- Power today is the ability to communicate and the ability to pursued … You can have an idea or a product that can change the world, but without the power to pursued, you have nothing.

I didn't know before how powerful the ability to pursued could be. I have been always been over looking this. This book has utterly transformed my perspective on this. The world is governed by the persuaders. Persuasion isn't a choice. It's an ever-present fact of life. Someone is always doing the persuading. People are spending millions and millions of dollars to get their message out with ultimate power and skills. So you either do the persuading or some one else does.

4. Has this book challenged your thinking in any way? If so, explain how?

Definitely, this book has challenged my thinking. I'm no longer upset over adversities. I no longer see the need to go complaining blaming people and circumstances for what I am.
Look at this challenge: The key to success is massive frustr
