About this ebook

Mina Parker, tireless mom and author of 365 Excuse Me …(inspired by the late Lynn Grabhorn), introduces the new Hampton Roads Collection of motivational classics. These affordable digital shorts will help the harried and the hurried to breathe deep, reassess, and re-purpose their day in the time it takes to drink a large latte.

American lawyer and writer Warren Hilton founded the Society of Applied Psychology in 1914, and imparted business wisdom in this early self-help book aimed at attaining business success. Even a century later, much of his straightforward advice on tapping into the power of persistence and enlivening a constant efficiency holds true today for anyone looking to overcome their own roadblocks to fulfillment in life and career.

    Initiative Psychic Energy - Warren Hilton

    Introduction

    Initiative Psychic Energy. I stumbled on this book, and had no idea what it might be. A manual for developing mind-reading powers? A new path toward oil independence? I'm joking, but the hundred-year-old phrasing tripped me up, because psychic means something different now than it did then, and energy is more about fossil fuels or nutrition bars than it is about our own mental forces. I'm glad I found this book, and in my mind I've renamed it Beginning Mental Power, or maybe we could call it Basic Mind Creativity.

    Sometimes we hit a brick wall. I have hit more than I care to remember, and at high speeds. We all feel it: in what we do for a living, in our relationships, in the hard work of making our dreams into reality. That moment comes when we feel totally drained, that we can go no further without a good long rest.

    But maybe it is not rest that we need, but renewed desire and sense of purpose. This book helps me tap into those reserves of energy I most need, the alternative power sources at hand in my mind and body, just at the moment I am most in danger of slacking off, quitting, spinning into paralyzing self-doubt.

    As I spin in that direction, I read Warren Hilton's sage advice:

    Decide the matter that is troubling you. Make an end of hesitation and uncertainty and fear. Your very act of decision will release large stores of pent-up mental power and add immeasurably to your effectiveness.

    Through this book, I get a look at business sense from one hundred years ago, and even through some of its more antiquated moments, it helps to increase my resolve. It inspires me to persevere, to refocus and reclaim stores of limitless energy. I can take aim at my own anxiety and embrace the ease of working with joy toward what I desire. Indeed, it kick-starts me on the path of my own basic mind creativity, my beginning mental power.

    Chapter I

    MENTAL SECOND WIND

    Sticking to the Job

    Are you an unusually persevering and persistent person? Or, like most of us, do you sometimes find it difficult to stick to the job until it is done? What is your usual experience in this respect?

    Is it not this, that you work steadily along until of a sudden you become conscious of a feeling of weariness, crying Enough! for the time being, and that you then yield to the impulse to stop?

    The Lagging Brain

    Assuming that this is what generally happens, does this feeling of fatigue, this impulse to rest, mean that your mental energy is exhausted?

    Suppose that by a determined effort of the will you force your lagging brain to take up the thread of work. There will invariably come a new supply of energy, a second wind, enabling you to forge ahead
