audiobooksSome Short Christmas Stories by Charles Dickens – “Here are some classic, short Christmas stories from Charles Dickens, who, one may easily argue, was the greatest Christmas storyteller to date. In this season, may we do as Dickens’ asked: ‘Welcome, everything! Welcome, alike what has been, and what never was, and what we hope may be, to your shelter underneath the holly, to your places round the Christmas fire, where what is sitting open-hearted’!” Happy Holidays! – Summary by Jvanstan

audiobooksAcres of Diamond by Russell Conwell – One of the most requested motivational lectures of all time. ‘I say that you ought to get rich, and it is your duty to get rich … The men who get rich may be the most honest men you find in the community. Let me say here clearly … ninety-eight out of one hundred of the rich men of America are honest. That is why they are rich. That is why they are trusted with money. That is why they carry on great enterprises and find plenty of people to work with them. It is because they are honest men’.

The central idea of the work is that one need not look elsewhere for opportunity, achievement, or fortune—the resources to achieve all good things are present in one’s own community; look in your own backyard for those acres of diamonds. This theme is developed by an introductory anecdote, credited by Conwell to an Arab guide, about a man who wanted to find diamonds so badly that he sold his property and went off in a futile search for them.

The new owner of his home discovered that a rich diamond mine was located right there on the property. Conwell elaborates on the theme through examples of success, genius, service, or other virtues involving ordinary Americans contemporary to his audience: “Dig in your own backyard!” – Summary by the Author

audiobookQuit Your Worrying! by George Wharton James.

“People will worry, they do worry. What they want to know and need to learn is how to quit worrying. This I have attempted herein to show, with the full knowledge, however, that no one person’s recipe can infallibly be used by any other person—so that, in reality, all I have tried to do is to set forth the means I have followed to teach myself the delightful lesson of serenity, of freedom from worry, and thereby to suggest to receptive minds a way by which they may possibly attain the same desirable end.” – Summary by George Wharton James

audiobookThe Path To Prosperity by James Allan

“‘The Path to Prosperity (sometimes rendered as The Path of Prosperity) is part one of James Allen’s first published work titled ‘From Poverty to Power’ alternatively titled ‘The Realization of Prosperity and Peace’ (1901).

Part one is an empowering volume that is likely to enlighten the reader as to how much power they have over outward circumstances by virtue of their own thoughts. Allen regularly communicates this by providing examples of how the laws which govern the inner world (of thought) operate in a manner similar to the laws of nature. Free from speculative philosophies, ideals, and dogma; it provides highly practical guidance on how to bring about lasting changes in any area of one’s life.

Part two (titled ‘The Way of Peace’) dives deeper into the concept of self-perfection and was later published as a separate book.

Excerpt from forward: “And I dreamed of writing a book which should help men and women, whether rich or poor, learned or unlearned, worldly or unworldly, to find within themselves the source of all success, all happiness, all accomplishment, all truth.” Summary by Sonnie Abdalla

audiobookThe Victorious Attitude by Orison Swett Marden

“Dr Marden tells how we can live up to our potential just by changing our attitude, from the normal attitude of I CAN’T to one of I CAN! To do this we need to have faith in ourselves and shut out the negative forces that come into our lives. We have to stop the negative thoughts and not listen to the naysayers. Once we find what we want to do we can’t think it to death, just take the chance and don’t procrastinate, don’t let doubt interfere. It’s difficult to do in the beginning but will soon become a habit and will make our lives so much easier and more fulfilling.” (Summary by kirk202)

The Game of Life and How to Play Itaudiobooks classics by Florence Scovel Shinn was originally published in 1975, yet remains timeless. It is full of philosophical reminders that speak to the part of us that knows we have the power to write our own lives here on earth.”

 

 

As A Man Thinkethaudiobooks by James Allen in his “books illustrate the use of the power of thought to increase personal capabilities. Although he never achieved great fame or wealth, his works continue to influence people around the world, including the New Thought movement.

Allen’s most famous book, As a Man Thinketh, was published in 1902. It is now considered a classic self-help book. Its underlying premise is that noble thoughts make a noble person, while lowly thoughts make a miserable person.” ~ (Summary by Wikipedia)

 

How To Live On 24 Hours A Day by Arnold Bennet. “Are you really ‘living’, or just existing? Do you want to improve yourself or just continue to muddle through? Do you use the time given you each day, or just throw most of it away? These questions Bennett asks each of us and for those who want to really live and learn, offer very valuable advice. Time is the most precious of commodities states, Bennett, in this book. Many books have been written on how to live on a certain amount of money each day. And he added that the old adage ‘time is money understates the matter, as time can often produce money, but money cannot produce more time. Time is extremely limited, and Bennett urged others to make the best of the time remaining in their lives. Which of us lives twenty-four hours a day? And when I say “lives,” I do not mean exists, nor muddles through. Which of us is free from that uneasy feeling that the ‘great spending departments’ of his daily life are not managed as they ought to be? […] Which of us is not saying to ourselves — which of us has not been saying to ourselves all his life: ‘I shall alter that when I have a little more time?’ We never shall have any more time. We have, and we have always had, all the time there is.” ~ (Summary from the author’s Preface)

Byways to Blessedness by James Allenaudiobooks “instructs us on how to improve our life and spiritual well-being through the power of positive thinking. He teaches us to live in the present and appreciate the moment. Allen asserts that the power of each person to form his own character and create his own happiness is within. ‘Life is full of beginnings. They are presented every day and every hour to every person. Most beginnings are small and appear trivial and insignificant, but in reality, they are the most important things in life.'” ~ (Summary by Andrea Fiore)

The Art of Money Getting (version 2) by P. T. Barnum. Read by Ruth Golding.audiobooks

Although Barnum considered himself primarily a showman and his main goal was to put money in his own pocket, this little book, subtitled Golden Rules for Making Money does have a good deal of common sense about how to make money, and perhaps more importantly, how to keep it once you’ve made it. Of course, having been written nearly a century and a half ago, some of the advice may be a little dated, but it remains a very readable self-help book. (Summary by Ruth Golding)

Psychology – Audiobooks

audiobooksDream Psychology by Sigmund Freud. “Not a few serious-minded students, […], have been discouraged from attempting a study of Freud’s dream psychology. The book in which he originally offered to the world his interpretation of dreams was as circumstantial as a legal record to be pondered over by scientists at their leisure, not to be assimilated in a few hours by the average alert reader. In those days, Freud could not leave out any detail likely to make his extremely novel thesis evidentially acceptable to those willing to sift data. – Freud himself, however, realized the magnitude of the task that the reading of his magnum opus imposed upon those who have not been prepared for it by long psychological and scientific training and he abstracted from that gigantic work the parts which constitute the essential of his discoveries.” (Summary by Librivox)

Introduction

audiobooksYour Mind And How To Use It by “William Walker Atkinson was one of the most prominent contributors to the literature of the New Thought movement, a non-denomination spiritual philosophy which developed in the late Nineteenth Century. Although he achieved eminence in a number of professions, Atkinson never sought personal publicity, and many of his numerous works were published under a variety of pseudonyms.

Most of Atkinson’s works are manuals of practice rather than pure expositions of philosophy. Many of his books are concerned with the training of the mind, and one of the most typical of these is Your Mind and How to Use It: A Manual of Practical Psychology, first published in 1911.” Summary by Algy Pug

About Women

audiobooksThe Awakening by Kate Chopin. “The Modern Library edition of The Awakening has an introduction by Kay Gibbons, who writes: ‘The Awakening shocked turn-of-the-century readers with its forthright treatment of sex and suicide. Departing from literary convention, Kate Chopin failed to condemn her heroine’s desire for an affair with the son of a Louisiana resort owner, whom she meets on vacation. The power of sensuality, the delusion of ecstatic love, and the solitude that accompanies the trappings of middle- and upper-class life are the themes of this now-classic novel’. – As Kay Gibbons points out, Chopin ‘was writing American realism before most Americans could bear to hear that they were living it.

Economics

“Anthem” is a dystopic science fiction story taking place at some unspecified future date. Mankind has entered another dark age as a result of what Rand saw as the weaknesses of socialistic thinking and economics. Technological advancement is now carefully planned (when it is allowed to occur, if at all) and the concept of individuality has been eliminated (for example, the word ‘I’ has disappeared from the language). As is common in her work, Rand draws a clear distinction between the ‘socialist/communal’ values of equality and brotherhood and the ‘productive/capitalist’ values of achievement and individuality. The story also parallels Stalinist Russia, which was currently going on at the time as the story was published.” (Summary from Wikipedia)

Following her mother’s advice to ‘make your mess your message, ‘ Robin taught a nation of viewers that while it is true that we’ve all got something–a medical crisis to face, ageing parents to care for, heartbreak in all its many forms–we’ve also all got something to give: hope, encouragement, a life-saving transplant or a spirit-saving embrace.
