"We cannot always control our thoughts, but we can control our words, and repetition impresses the subconscious, and we are then master of the situation."

Your quest to live a more spiritual life begins with you. The first step you can take is to make every effort to lead a solemn life. This starts with what you can control – your words and your actions. By controlling your words, you are in command of most every situation. Dr. Wayne Dyer introduces spiritual influences to enable you to manifest your own destiny.

Have you ever had a committee meeting where 15 to 20 co-workers are trying to agree upon a common outcome? What tends to happen? Not much. The group can't seem to agree on anything. When everyone has the floor, productivity and communication suffer. What's needed is that one person who can stand up and take authority over the meeting. That's usually done by a strong-voiced, charismatic individual. Whether your audience is 15 or fifteen hundred, Dale Carnegie Training presents the solid instruction you need to be that voice for yourself and your organization.

"Many of us spend our lives searching for success when it is usually so close that we can reach out and touch it."

We expect success to be in some faraway land where tumbleweeds go to die. Or locked away in a keyless vault. We expect success to shadow others, but not ourselves. Here's the thing: Almost all those who have found success once thought that it was nowhere to be found as well. Then they changed their mindset, changed their focus, and suddenly found success — right in front of their eyes. Dr. Wayne Dyer helps to adjust your mindset and focus to find success through spiritual means.

"With everything that has happened to you, you can either feel sorry for yourself or treat what has happened as a gift. Everything is either an opportunity to grow or an obstacle to keep you from growing. You get to choose."

When you were a kid and had an accident, a scar would appear. The scar would act as a reminder to be careful to avoid future accidents, future scars. Today, your scars don’t appear on your knees or elbows, but rather as emotional trauma in your life. Because adult wounds and problems are not visible to the naked eye, many people ignore them, and so these people re-injure themselves repeatedly. Next time you stumble in your life, do yourself a favor and treat the wound and then learn from it. Dr. Wayne Dyer will take your hand and help you grow spiritually to avoid future scars.

"We are forced to dig past our usual shortcuts in thought and perception, past all the stock and trite responses we’ve accumulated around almost every event or situation, and to probe deeply into our own richer and subtler awarenesses, which is where the meaningful is to be found, found in every one of us!"

When was the last time that you really thought about something important? The last time that you pondered a situation from every angle and examined every last minute detail. Many times, people don’t put forth that type of thought effort unless they have to. People don’t think about their health, until they get that life-altering call from the doctor. People don’t think about their relationships, until they are about to lose them. People don’t think about their career future, until they no longer have a steady career. They live in the problem and not in the solution. Dr. Win Wenger and Richard Poe give you the ability to reach that deeper level of thought in everything you do — to look at situations from every angle possible — to arrive at creative solutions that have a positive, lasting effect on your life.

"The future is not a gift — it is an achievement."

There are those who believe that the future holds all of their hopes and dreams. That the future holds everything they could ever want. The truth is that the future holds nothing — unless you put something into it. Put time in, your future holds experience. Put effort in, the future holds success. Put finances in wisely, your future holds wealth. Put nothing in, and, voila … nothing! Dr. Edward Hallowell gives you the tools you need to exchange your crazy-busy life for one that builds your future into one that does contain your hopes and dreams – fulfilled.

"When you are making a success of something, it's not work. It's a way of life. You enjoy yourself because you are making your contribution to the world."

We all know people who believe that work is work and play is play and never the two shall meet. For some of these people, it takes everything they’ve got to drag themselves out of bed in the morning to go to work. The only thing they’ll excel at is mediocrity. Whether it’s your profession, your hobbies, or whatever things you enjoy in life, you need to change your perspective so that they become a passionate part of your life – every day. Only then will you begin to succeed. Dr. Tom Morris shares insights from the world’s most successful people.
