Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 You can fear your death or use it to help you live. If you don't start taking these steps, you can anticipate living your entire life the way others say you must. #2 Taking charge of yourself involves putting aside some prevalent myths about intelligence. The first is the notion that intelligence is measured by your ability to solve complex problems, read, write, and compute at certain levels, and resolve abstract equations quickly. But a true barometer of intelligence is an effective, happy life lived each day and each present moment of every day. #3 You must learn to take total control of yourself, which will involve a new thinking process. You must trust in your own ability to feel emotionally whatever you choose to feel at any given moment. This is a radical notion. #4 You can attack the myth of not being in control of your emotions through logic. By using a simple syllogism, you can begin the process of being in control of yourself both mentally and emotionally.
