[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]As a Man Thinketh<\/strong><\/span> 1. What is the main idea that the author is trying to convey in the book?<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n The central idea behind As a Man Thinketh by James Allen is that our thoughts are the cause of virtually all the effects we see and experience in our lives. From our character to our circumstances, from health and bodily condition to purpose and achievement, thought is the invisible molder and shaper of the life we eventually see in the material world.<\/span> In this light, life becomes largely predictable and malleable. Since the outcomes of a man\u2019s life are the results of his thoughts, he has the power, through knowledge and willpower, to change the course of his life. Just as a garden yields only the kind of seeds planted in it, so does the human mind bring forth the quality of thought-seeds allowed to grow within it. This makes every individual responsible for the outcomes of life; good or bad. It removes the notion of \u201cluck\u201d or rigid \u201cpredestination,\u201d reminding us that by changing our thoughts, we can change our outcomes.<\/span><\/p>\n 2. What were the seven ideas which were personally most important to you and why? List these seven ideas followed by an explanation after each one as to why it was important to you. Use personal examples from your own life.<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n i. Man is the creator of circumstances, not a victim of them<\/span><\/p>\n Allen teaches that humans are not helpless products of fate but are either conscious or unconscious creators of their life circumstances. This matters to me because it convinces me to cease from blaming external forces any unwanted circumstance in my life and take up the responsibility to master my inner life. I remember years back when I blamed my former employees and superiors for not promoting me in the office. I later discovered that I was unconsciously harboring a limited mindset. By changing my mindset, I began to change my outcomes.<\/span><\/p>\n ii. Thought creates and moulds character<\/span><\/p>\n A person\u2019s character is nothing but the sum of their consistent thoughts. Noble thoughts produce noble character, while weak or selfish thoughts build weakness. This knowledge has made me a keen observer of myself and others. I have come to know that character is not fixed nor absolutely inherited. James Allen shows it can be shaped. For instance, when I intentionally cultivated thoughts of patience and discipline, I noticed I became calmer in handling people and more consistent in my work.<\/span><\/p>\n iii. Circumstances do not make a man, they reveal him<\/span><\/p>\n Life\u2019s conditions expose what is within us rather than create it. This was important for me to realize because it means challenges are not unfair punishments but are outer reflections of my inner state. Recently, I made a financial decision that cost me losses. On analyzing it, I discovered that had not mastered the right thought concerning abundance, supply and financial intelligence. Instead of blaming the scammers, I saw it as a call to strengthen my discipline, mindset and skills set on money and abundance. That shift built resilience in me.<\/span><\/p>\n iv. To change the outer, focus on the inner not the outer<\/span><\/p>\n Lasting transformation and change begin inside. Trying to fix only external conditions without addressing inner thought is like trimming leaves without touching the root. It will still spring up again. This idea is vital to me because, in the past I have tried to change situations by force without changing myself. For example, in leadership, I found that when I worked on my own clarity and confidence, the team naturally followed better, without me having to push hard.<\/span><\/p>\n v. Two opposing thoughts in a man will produce two opposing circumstances in his life<\/span><\/p>\n Allen explains why some people show prosperity or success in certain areas yet have poor character, while others display strong morals but struggle financially. People often assume the \u201cbad\u201d man prospers because of his badness, and the \u201cgood\u201d man fails because of his goodness. I have come to realize that it is not so. A person prospers in the areas where his thoughts are rightly aligned, regardless of weaknesses elsewhere. This challenged me personally, because I noticed that while I held strong values, my double-mindedness in financial thinking; swinging between faith and fear; kept me from progress until I learned to align fully with confidence.<\/span><\/p>\n vi. The body is the servant and the mind is the master<\/span><\/p>\n Our physical health and condition reflect the state of our mind. Positive, pure thoughts build vitality, while stress and hatred damage the body. This matters to me because I once underestimated how much my thinking affected my health. During a stressful period, constant worry made me physically weak. When I learned to calm my mind and replace fear with peace, I noticed my strength and health returning.<\/span><\/p>\n vii. To become a consummate man, one must develop a whole mind that produces wholesome thought in all areas.<\/span><\/p>\n Allen\u2019s vision of completeness is a mind disciplined and pure in every area; work, relationships, health, and purpose. This stood out to me because I believe in and desire growth that holistic, not partial. I cannot think positively in career but negatively in family and expect wholeness. A personal example is when I began to apply discipline not just in my work but also in my spiritual life, and I found greater balance and peace. These seven ideas will help me in a very practical way, both in shaping my daily life and in equipping me to contribute positively to the world around me. Personally, they remind me that I am not a victim of circumstances but a creator of them. This keeps me from wasting energy on blame and instead focuses me on taking responsibility. Knowing that thought moulds character inspires me to guard my thinking, since the quality of my thoughts will ultimately reflect in who I become and how I act.<\/span><\/p>\n When I encounter challenges, I now see them not as unfair obstacles but as revelations of my inner state. This perspective strengthens me to embrace difficulties as opportunities for growth rather than sources of despair. Likewise, focusing on the inner before the outer ensures that I work on transforming myself first before trying to change situations or people. This has made me more effective in leadership, relationships, and business.<\/span> Beyond myself, these ideas are powerful tools for helping others. By practicing and teaching them, I can inspire people to take ownership of their lives, build strong character, and pursue holistic growth. If lived out broadly, these lessons would produce healthier families, ethical leaders, and societies grounded in responsibility and inner transformation.<\/span><\/p>\n 4. Quotes: Are there any statements which the author made that particularly got your attention? If so, please quote them and comment as to why they were important to you.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n \u201cEvery man is where he is by the law of his being; the thoughts which he has built into his character have brought him there, and in the arrangement of his life there is no element of chance, but all is the result of a law which cannot err.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n This is perhaps the greatest truism for me. It removes the illusion of luck or chance and makes life predictable through the law of thought. Every situation I find myself in is simply the outcome of my dominant thought patterns. This realization empowers me to stop complaining about my circumstances and to deliberately cultivate the thoughts and character I want to see. It assures me that transformation is scientific\u2014by changing my inner thought-life, I can change my outer reality. That responsibility gives me hope and clarity for the future.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cUntil thought is linked with purpose there is no intelligent accomplishment.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n This statement struck me because it showed me that mere positive thinking or wishful imagination is not enough. Thought without direction remains powerless. For change to be effective, thought must be harnessed by purpose, and purpose generates the energy to act. I recall times when I dreamed big but failed to see results, only to realize later that I lacked a definite purpose behind those thoughts. Now I see that whenever my thinking is guided by a strong sense of purpose, it channels focus, energy, and persistence that eventually lead to accomplishment.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cStrong, pure, and happy thoughts build up the body in vigor and grace.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n I love this quote because it affirms what I have experienced in my own life. During seasons of worry and fear, I noticed my health weaken. But when I chose to cultivate peaceful, joyful, and uplifting thoughts, my energy returned and my body became lighter and stronger. It makes me see that aging is not just physical but mental, and that vitality can be sustained by aligning my mind with life-giving thoughts. This makes me determined to live above fear and negativity so that my body continues to reflect strength and vitality.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe dreamers are the saviors of the world.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n This quote inspires me deeply because it reminds me that every achievement humanity celebrates\u2014nations, inventions, philosophies, and movements; once began as someone\u2019s dream. It challenges me as an African, where many still struggle with victim mentality and disbelief in our capacity for greatness. It pushes me to embrace my role as a dreamer, to envision possibilities beyond poverty, corruption, and backwardness, and to see a continent transformed by visionary leadership and systemic prosperity. Dreamers make the impossible possible, and I aspire to be one of those who redefine what is achievable for my people.<\/span><\/p>\n 5. Is there anything in the book that you do not understand or are unclear about, or are there ideas which you disagree with and, if so, why?<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n I would not say that there are areas I disagree with. However, there are a few areas that I found myself reflecting on with questions. One of them is James Allen\u2019s strong insistence that all circumstances of life are directly tied to a man\u2019s thoughts. While I agree that thought is central, I sometimes wonder about situations where external factors, like natural disasters, systemic oppression, or sudden accidents, play a role. In such cases, it seems harsh to say a person\u2019s thought alone created those experiences. I have seen innocent children die due to terrorism, war and oppressive governments and wonder if their thoughts contributed to all that.<\/span><\/p>\n However, after much reflection, I realized Allen\u2019s point is not about denying external events but about how our inner thought determines our response, resilience, and eventual outcome in the face of them. Still, I think his language could give the impression that thought is the sole cause of every external event, which may not fully capture the complexity of life. So while I do not outright reject Allen\u2019s ideas, I believe they should be balanced with an understanding that thought is a dominant but not always the only factor shaping life.<\/span><\/p>\n 6. Did the book contain exercises for the reader to complete? If so, did you complete all of the exercises and did you find them helpful?<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n The book As a Man Thinketh does not contain structured exercises in the way some modern self-help books do, with questions or activities after each chapter. However, I found that the whole book itself functions as an exercise in self-examination. Every chapter calls the reader to pause, reflect, and measure his or her life against the principles presented.<\/span><\/p>\n For me, reading the book became an exercise in monitoring my thoughts and deliberately adjusting them. For instance, after reading the section on thought and character, I took time daily to observe the kind of thoughts I was entertaining\u2014whether they were constructive or destructive and I began to replace negative thoughts with positive, purposeful ones. Similarly, when Allen emphasized that the body is servant to the mind, I made it a practice to calm my mind before sleep, which immediately improved my rest and energy levels. So while there were no explicit exercises written in the text, I treated the book as a workbook for life. Every page calls for application. And in that sense, I would say yes, I completed the \u201cexercises\u201d it offered, and they have been deeply helpful in shaping my thinking, my emotions, and my daily habits.<\/span><\/p>\n 7. Was there anything you read in the book that you would like to comment on that was not covered in the previous questions? If so, please comment.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n While the previous questions covered a lot of areas, I have a few areas to mention that it did not cover. One of them is the timeless simplicity of this book. As a Man Thinketh is a very small volume barely the size of a booklet yet it carries depth that many larger books do not. It struck me in a profound way how James Allen could capture profound truths in such few words, without unnecessary complexity. It reminded me that truth is not always found in length but in clarity and precision.<\/span><\/p>\n Another point that stood out to me is how universal the book is. Allen does not write from a religious, cultural, or denominational standpoint, yet his words align with the deepest moral and spiritual principles I know. Even though the title of his book could be argued to have been derived from the Book of Proverbs of the Christian Bible, it was so masterfully delivered that no one could attribute it to any religious system, but to all humanity. Whether one is a leader, entrepreneur, student, or parent, the principles apply. This makes it a book I can revisit again and again, each time finding new layers of meaning, and also a book to comfortably give to anyone without it seeming as though one is proselytizing the person.<\/span><\/p>\n Finally, I want to comment on the way the book inspires self-responsibility. It leaves no room for excuses, blame, or victimhood. That to me is its greatest gift: it empowers every person, no matter their background, to take control of their life by mastering their thoughts.<\/span><\/p>\n Please rate the following questions on a scale from 1 to 10. Ten is good and one is poor.<\/span><\/strong> <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jonathan Livingston Seagull<\/strong><\/span> 1. What is the main idea that the author is trying to convey in the book?<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n The main idea of Jonathan Livingston Seagull is that every individual possesses limitless potential waiting to be discovered and fully expressed. Most people live within the boundaries set by society, tradition, and fear, never realizing the extraordinary power within them. The book teaches that true fulfillment comes from believing in oneself, pursuing excellence, and daring to rise above the ordinary. Jonathan, the seagull, embodies this journey refusing to accept limitations, he relentlessly pursues mastery and discovers the freedom and joy of living according to his own vision.<\/span><\/p>\n This story illustrates that awakening one\u2019s potential often meets resistance, because others cannot see beyond convention. Yet, persistence and self-belief allow one to transcend these obstacles. The transformation is profound: just as a butterfly emerges from a cocoon, those who dare to explore their inner potential experience a complete metamorphosis of life. Jonathan\u2019s flight is a metaphor for human aspiration\u2014the higher we aim, the more our spirit grows, and the more our life aligns with our true purpose.<\/span> 2. What were the seven ideas which were personally most important to you and why? List these seven ideas followed by an explanation after each one as to why it was important to you. Use personal examples from your own life.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n i. Resistance from others is inevitable when pursuing the extraordinary<\/span><\/p>\n Most people want others to remain ordinary as they are. When someone decides to pursue an extraordinary life, resistance and fear often appear from those around them. I have experienced this firsthand. Years ago, a relative discouraged me from pursuing a particular program, asking, \u201cWhat is the need for this?\u201d That resistance made me realize that following my own path requires courage and inner conviction.<\/span><\/p>\n ii. There is an ideal life within each of us<\/span><\/p>\n We will always feel restless until we explore our highest potential. For those who recognize it, nothing less than the ideal matters. I remember realizing I had a first-class mind and had to distance myself from discouraging associations to explore it fully. Once we recognize our inner potential, external opinions lose power over us.<\/span><\/p>\n iii. Attempting the impossible unlocks our hidden power<\/span><\/p>\n We remain ordinary until we habitually stretch our limits. Unlocking our potential requires more than belief or motivation it takes consistent discipline and practice. I personally overcame stammering through deep belief and rigorous public speaking practice. The experience showed me the transformative power of persistence.<\/span><\/p>\n iv. Be the biggest believer in yourself<\/span><\/p>\n If you want to achieve greatness, do not rely on the faith of others. You must passionately believe in your own power. When others doubt or waste time, keep pushing and practicing. Self-faith is what ultimately leads to your highest manifestation. My self-belief has helped me to go on increasing in self-mastery and building the ventures I have been doing for years. If I never had it, I would had been discouraged a long time ago.<\/span><\/p>\n v. Loneliness accompanies the pursuit of greatness<\/span><\/p>\n To reach the extraordinary, you must be comfortable being alone. The person who will achieve the impossible must be willing to walk, practice, and face challenges in isolation, sometimes forgotten by others, to stay true to their grand vision. Since I have made a decision to gain self-mastery, I have lost many old acquaintances and associate. It is one of the prices for the pursuit of excellence and transformation.<\/span><\/p>\n vi. Extreme effort unlocks new dimensions of potential<\/span><\/p>\n When we push ourselves to the limits of our abilities, a new level of potential emerges, opening doors to entirely new dimensions of growth. This means that mastery or transformation is in degrees. When you think you have reached the zenith, a whole new dimension opens up, showing you that there is more to learn. It means that man is an individualized version of the Divine Source or Intelligence that originated us. We too have infinite ability. In my life journey, I have experienced profound things that I never knew existed. Yet, as I reached a certain dimension in self-mastery, I noticed that high doors are unlocked.<\/span><\/p>\n vii. Divine power resides within<\/span><\/p>\n Those who unlock their inner divine power are often seen as extraordinary by history, but their example proves it is possible for all. What one can achieve, others can achieve too with discipline, belief, and persistence. From spiritual figures to inventive ones or those who showed profound leadership ability. Many would want to venerate them or even worship them. Yet they came to us to be laws o examples not items of worship or veneration. I have taken extreme exercise in my spiritual development that on looking back, they look impossible and those know of it usually wonder. But, I always tell them is that they too can achieve it, if they remove the barrier in the<\/span><\/p>\n 3. How will these ideas or lessons help you in a practical way, both in your daily personal life and in helping you to create a better world? If so, how?<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n These seven ideas have the power to transform both my daily life and the way I impact the world. Personally, they remind me that the extraordinary life is not given; it is created. I now approach each day with intention, knowing that my thoughts, discipline, and persistent effort shape my outcomes. When faced with resistance or doubt from others, I remind myself that this is a natural part of pursuing the ideal, and I press forward regardless.<\/span><\/p>\n Recognizing the ideal life within me pushes me to set higher standards, avoid distractions, and consistently strive toward growth. Attempting what seems impossible has taught me patience, discipline, and resilience; it shows me that transformation comes through persistent action, not wishful thinking. Believing fully in my own power allows me to take responsibility for my success and navigate life with confidence, even when others doubt me.<\/span><\/p>\n I also understand that true greatness often requires loneliness and sacrifice. I am learning to embrace isolation when necessary, using it as a space to focus, refine my skills, and confront my goals directly. Pushing to the limits of my potential helps me discover new abilities and inspires me to keep moving forward.<\/span><\/p>\n Finally, knowing that divine power resides within reminds me that my growth is not just for me; it sets an example for others. By unlocking my potential and demonstrating courage, discipline, and belief, I inspire those around me to pursue their highest possibilities. If more people embrace this mindset, we create a world where potential is realized, limitations are challenged, and extraordinary lives become the norm.<\/span><\/p>\n 4. Quotes: Are there any statements which the author made that particularly got your attention? If so, please quote them and comment as to why they were important to you.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n \u201cBut you can, Jonathan. For you have learned. One school is finished, and the time has come for another to begin.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n This statement is profound to me because it shows that life unfolds in degrees. Once we master one level of potential, it naturally leads to another, guiding us toward the fullest expression of our capabilities. It reminds me that growth is a step-by-step process, and that each challenge or achievement prepares us for the next stage of mastery.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cWe choose our next world through what we learn in this one.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n This quote resonates deeply because I have used similar ideas to teach others about life. Earth is a school, and we are cosmic students here to learn. How we approach life, pass its tests, and gain mastery determines our next level of existence. This idea keeps me disciplined and purposeful. I know I am here to master myself and realize my full potential, so I press forward every day to ensure progress and transformation.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI say you are free.\u201d<\/span> \u201cTo begin with, you\u2019ve got to understand that a seagull is an unlimited idea of freedom, an image of the Great Gull, and your whole body from wingtip to wingtip is nothing more than your thought itself.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n This is the grandest statement for me. It reveals that humans, like the gull, are beings of unlimited potential, created in the image of the Divine Source. Our physical reality is a manifestation of thought energy, and mastering this truth is the height of self-mastery. My goal is to realize this experientially so that I can act with full confidence, knowing that all things are possible to those who believe.<\/span><\/p>\n 5. Is there anything in the book that you do not understand or are unclear about, or are there ideas which you disagree with and, if so, why?<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n I find almost nothing in the book unclear because its messages are simple yet profound. However, one area I paused to reflect on is the speed at which Jonathan achieves mastery. In real life, the journey to self-mastery and unlocking one\u2019s potential often feels slower and more challenging. While Jonathan\u2019s story is aspirational, it can create a perception that mastery is almost immediate for those who believe. In truth, persistent practice, failure, and patience are essential steps. Nonetheless, this does not diminish the power of the message; it simply reminds me to temper inspiration with realistic perseverance.<\/span><\/p>\n 6. Did the book contain exercises for the reader to complete? If so, did you complete all of the exercises and did you find them helpful?<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Jonathan Livingston Seagull does not contain structured exercises like modern self-help or instructional books. There are no checklists, assignments, or step-by-step activities. However, the entire narrative functions as a practical guide for self-examination and personal growth. Each chapter challenges the reader to reflect deeply on their own life, beliefs, and limits, making the story itself an experiential exercise.<\/span><\/p>\n For me, reading Jonathan became an active practice rather than a passive experience. I deliberately paused at moments when Jonathan faced doubts, failures, or breakthroughs, and asked myself: \u201cWhere am I limiting myself? How am I holding back my potential?\u201d I applied these reflections to areas of my own life, like public speaking, discipline, and persistence in pursuing long-term goals. The book encouraged me to adopt daily habits of intentional practice, pushing past fear and societal expectations, much like Jonathan practiced flying beyond the clouds.<\/span><\/p>\n In this sense, although there were no formal exercises, I treated the story as a blueprint for self-mastery. The lessons became actionable through conscious reflection and daily application, which I found incredibly helpful in cultivating discipline, focus, and an unwavering belief in my potential.<\/span><\/p>\n 7. Was there anything you read in the book that you would like to comment on that was not covered in the previous questions? If so, please comment.<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n One of the most striking aspects of Jonathan Livingston Seagull is its timeless simplicity and depth. Although it is a short story, it carries profound philosophical and spiritual truths about human potential, self-mastery, and the pursuit of excellence. I was struck by how Richard Bach could convey so much about life, growth, and freedom in a narrative about a seagull, making complex ideas accessible and memorable. Another point that resonated with me is the universal applicability of the lessons. Jonathan\u2019s journey is not limited to birds; it mirrors the human experience of striving to surpass mediocrity, face resistance, and pursue one\u2019s highest potential. His struggles with isolation, criticism, and the need for self-discipline reflect challenges that anyone pursuing excellence must face.<\/span> Please rate the following questions on a scale from 1 to 10. Ten is good and one is poor.<\/span><\/strong> 1. What is the main idea that the author is trying to convey in the book?<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n The fundamental message of PsychoCybernetics is that human beings do not primarily fail or succeed because of circumstances, intelligence, education, environment, or even effort, but because of the self-image they carry within themselves. Maxwell Maltz presents the human mind as a goal-seeking mechanism, similar to a guidance system, that automatically works to bring external outcomes into alignment with one\u2019s internal identity. In other words, people consistently move toward what they believe they are, not merely toward what they desire.<\/span><\/p>\n The book makes a decisive shift away from effort-based and willpower-driven transformation to identity-based transformation. Maltz argues convincingly that willpower is often overrated and unreliable because most human behavior is governed at a subconscious level. When a person\u2019s inner image is distorted by fear, guilt, inferiority, or past failure, that individual unconsciously resists success, growth, and responsibility – even when opportunities are available and capability is evident.<\/span><\/p>\n What struck me most is the author\u2019s insistence that success is not something to be aggressively pursued or forced through strain, but something that emerges naturally when inner alignment exists. Change does not occur simply because one tries harder; it occurs when one begins to see oneself differently. The self-image becomes the internal blueprint from which thoughts, emotions, habits, decisions, and results consistently flow.<\/span>
\nAssessment by Kenneth Izuchukwu Nwakanma (Nigeria)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
\nAllen emphasizes that every act and condition of human life springs from the seeds of thought, whether conscious or unconscious. If a person harbors good thoughts as a habitual practice, he will produce good outcomes. If he cultivates weak thoughts, he will unconsciously manifest weakness in life. If he entertains poor, malicious, or destructive thoughts, these will inevitably show up in his circumstances and actions.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n3. How will these ideas or lessons help you in a practical way, both in your daily personal life and in helping you to create a better world? If so, how?<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
\nThe lesson on double-mindedness pushes me to align my thoughts consistently with my goals, especially in finances, so that fear and doubt do not sabotage progress. Remembering that the mind is master and the body is servant helps me reduce stress and preserve health by cultivating peace of mind. Finally, pursuing a whole and disciplined mind encourages me to seek balance across all areas of life\u2014spiritual, professional, and personal; rather than succeeding in one while failing in another.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nAssessment by Kenneth Izuchukwu Nwakanma (Nigeria)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
\nUltimately, the book is a call to courage and self-mastery. It challenges readers to reject mediocrity, to break free from limiting beliefs, and to consistently seek excellence. It shows that our greatest achievements are possible when we awaken the divinity within us, pursue our dreams with tenacity, and refuse to be defined by fear, doubt, or the narrow expectations of others.<\/span><\/p>\n
\nJonathan says this to the young gull, Kirk Maynard, who believed he had wing problems and could not fly. This statement liberated Kirk, and for me, it demonstrates a universal truth: our true freedom comes from understanding our potential. We are not limited except by our own minds. Recognizing our inherent capacity and possibilities is the first step toward self-liberation and empowerment.<\/span><\/p>\n
\nFinally, the book emphasizes the transformative power of persistence and belief in oneself. Jonathan\u2019s story reminds me that real freedom and mastery come from within, and that to reach new heights, one must be willing to defy conventional limits, embrace solitude, and consistently practice one\u2019s craft. It inspires me to approach every day as an opportunity to stretch my limits and unlock higher levels of potential.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nAssessment by Kenneth Izuchukwu Nwakanma (Nigeria)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
\nIn essence, PsychoCybernetics teaches that the outer life is a direct reflection of the inner picture, and that lasting, sustainable change requires the deliberate re-education and correction of that inner picture.<\/span><\/p>\n
