This book is a journey of discovery into the very purpose of life, and into the role that thinking plays in our lives. It makes you aware of the forces that exist within you, and how these forces manufacture your daily successes and failures;
Fourteen principles, explained in Chapter 1 of the book, form the basic rules that govern our functioning as humans. They explain life as it really is, without mysticism, and the mechanisms responsible for everything we do, from making a cup of tea through to achieving a successful career. It is when we violate these principles that we create our own problems. Conversely, when we learn to use them to our advantage, we optimize our chances of succeeding and generate happiness and satisfaction in our lives.
Effective Thinking teaches that we possess a natural subconscious achieving machinery, whose primary function is to direct us towards accomplishing goals. Left to its own devices, it may well be working towards detrimental and negative objectives. But we can learn to consciously instruct this subconscious machinery in order to attain desirable and beneficial objectives instead.
Life can provide satisfaction or hardships equally, depending on the type of vibes we emit into our environment, which we constantly do though our thinking; faulty thinking attracts misfortunes, effective thinking creates opportunities. The principles of Effective Thinking compel us to acknowledge that what we get out of life is what we put into our own mind, through our thinking. If we fail to recognize this, we are ignoring the very means for happiness and success.
To develop Mind Power you need to learn about the connection between what you think rationally and what you feel subconsciously, which you perceive through your gut feelings.
Success and happiness are more closely related to smart thinking than to intelligent thinking. The Effective Thinking model recognizes that intelligence does not play a chief role in life successes or in personal satisfaction; but practicality and smart thinking do. To be more efficient and more successful you need to learn to prepare, train and equip your internal subconscious forces, your inner army in charge of carrying out the strategies leading to achieving success.
