The Wealthy State of Mind
Author: Garth Vickers
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781523952991
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 102
Book Description
The world is starving, not for just food, but for information. God wants you to live an abundant life! Author and wealth coach Garth Vickers shares the philosophy that led him to success and motivates him to work for the human race emancipation's from mental and physical poverty. God provides the opportunity and means for every living person to gain wealth. Less than 1% of the world's population enjoys it. Why is this, and what can you do to make it possible for you? Your first step to wealth is to change your mindset. Your mind is the bridge between poverty and success. The intention of this book is to change the way we view the world of money, and teach individuals to create generational wealth. We show appreciation to God by acquiring the things that allow God to express Himself fully through us, and participating in this endlessly creative universe. Learn the steps to change your outlook from thoughts that create poverty to thoughts that create wealth, and watch the results in your life! "Wealth is the reality: poverty is a myth!" However, even in the abundance of water, the ignorant would still die of thirst. One of the greatest mysteries of life is how to gain wealth in the short time between the day you were born and the day you become an ancestor. Many solve this mystery very early. For others, it is a long time coming, and many think that wealth will never come. As a teenager, I did a survey all over the Caribbean Islands, and most people told me that they were not born to be wealthy. I knew from a very tender age that wealth is a state of mind. Wealth is not as exclusive as most people think it is. You may be wondering if a poor person like you will ever get wealthy and the answer is YES-if you will only accept that wealth is not exclusively for a chosen few, as we were taught to believe. As poor as you think you are, you were created from substance of wealth.

Closing of the American Mind
Author: Allan Bloom
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1439126267
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 403
Book Description
The brilliant, controversial, bestselling critique of American culture that “hits with the approximate force and effect of electroshock therapy” (The New York Times)—now featuring a new afterword by Andrew Ferguson in a twenty-fifth anniversary edition. In 1987, eminent political philosopher Allan Bloom published The Closing of the American Mind, an appraisal of contemporary America that “hits with the approximate force and effect of electroshock therapy” (The New York Times) and has not only been vindicated, but has also become more urgent today. In clear, spirited prose, Bloom argues that the social and political crises of contemporary America are part of a larger intellectual crisis: the result of a dangerous narrowing of curiosity and exploration by the university elites. Now, in this twenty-fifth anniversary edition, acclaimed author and journalist Andrew Ferguson contributes a new essay that describes why Bloom’s argument caused such a furor at publication and why our culture so deeply resists its truths today.

The Coddling of the American Mind
Author: Greg Lukianoff
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0735224900
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Something is going wrong on many college campuses in the last few years. Rates of anxiety, depression, and suicide are rising. Speakers are shouted down. Students and professors say they are walking on eggshells and afraid to speak honestly. How did this happen? First Amendment expert Greg Lukianoff and social psychologist Jonathan Haidt show how the new problems on campus have their origins in three terrible ideas that have become increasingly woven into American childhood and education: what doesn’t kill you makes you weaker; always trust your feelings; and life is a battle between good people and evil people. These three Great Untruths are incompatible with basic psychological principles, as well as ancient wisdom from many cultures. They interfere with healthy development. Anyone who embraces these untruths—and the resulting culture of safetyism—is less likely to become an autonomous adult able to navigate the bumpy road of life. Lukianoff and Haidt investigate the many social trends that have intersected to produce these untruths. They situate the conflicts on campus in the context of America’s rapidly rising political polarization, including a rise in hate crimes and off-campus provocation. They explore changes in childhood including the rise of fearful parenting, the decline of unsupervised play, and the new world of social media that has engulfed teenagers in the last decade. This is a book for anyone who is confused by what is happening on college campuses today, or has children, or is concerned about the growing inability of Americans to live, work, and cooperate across party lines.
