CHANGING FOR THE BETTER: Good Habits, Bad Habits, & New Things - #13

by Rick Baker
On Mar 13, 2012

Over the last 2 years, I have written several Thought Posts on the topic of 'Changing for the Better', which, it seems to me, is something most People expend much energy thinking about and trying to do. 

People Only Do 3 Things: Good Habits, Bad Habits, & New Things. And, working at Changing for the Better is a Good Habit.

In fact, there is no better habit

Life-long learning, aimed at self-improvement...for Spirited Leaders there is no better habit

Recently, I read the following quote in James Allen's 1912 book - 'Light on Life's Difficulties':

To live is to think and act, and to think and act is to change. While man is ignorant of the nature of thought, he continues to change for better or worse; but, being acquainted with the nature of thought, he intelligently accelerates and directs the process of change, and only for the better.”

100 years ago, James Allen presented these key pieces of life and work philosophy as well as they can be presented.

James Allen was a brilliant man and an elegant and eloquent writer. In the above two sentences he captured the philosophy behind 'Think and Grow Rich'. He also captured the physiological fact now known as brain neuroplasticity.

Brilliant!
