"Since our civilization has moved on to an intensive industrial level, our psychology of living has been subjected to a variety of pressures unknown to our ancestors. As a result, we need a basic statement of principles suitable to present-day conditions." - Manly P. Hall

"There is a popular belief that the older we get, the wiser we are. This is not always true, however; for no matter how long we live, experience means little unless we honestly search for the causes of our troubles." - Manly P. Hall

  • Its quiet interesting how we reject the reality of our situation and expect to be able to observe it, control it and even change it. I used to be financially depressed until I read a book that made me realized that the secret to making a million is making better investments.
  • This channel changed my life. Thank you for showing me the tools so I could disband my victims mentality.

    I have found all of these rules in my seeking of living a good, peaceful and productive life in the absence of immediate examples… but to find them all distilled with such precision and clarity is an enormous gift. And timely. The sudden death of my life and business partner on the eve of our marriage two years ago has been a brutal reckoning and last week I succumbed to despair over the terrible decisions I’ve made… I am teetering on the edge of destroying my life and dreams by regrets. This dissemination of all I know to be true and right has saved me from making more bad decisions. Thank you.
  • Daily Affirmation "I can succeed all that is possible with anyone is possible to me. I am successful, I do succeed for I am full of the power of success". Repeat this everyday for at least two time a day and see the power of oneself self.
  • @vekanup8573
    “The wisdom of 50 centuries is available to us” How do we contemplate such a beautiful statement like this.

    "It is better to be strict with ourselves where principles are involved" deep and serious 💯
  • I had the opportunity to be part of the speeches given by Manly P. Hall. The memories I have from the lectures provided me with the open minded curious thinking I still have today. I have many of his recording and books. He was amazing and inspirational. His knowledge and wisdom is still a secret to the world.
