Using a key text from 1st Corinthians, Drummond argues that while there are many virtuous emotions we all must practice cultivating in order to live a fuller life, none is more paramount than a loving outlook. With an urgent passion that bespeaks the era in which he lived, Drummond testifies that if we only take a little more time each day to operate from a basis of loving kindness, others will notice and be attracted to our living example.

According to language expert Charles Earle Funk, "to take a message to Garcia" was for years a popular American slang expression for taking initiative. The essay is still used by some members of the military and is required reading within the U.S. Marine Corps.

Set in a far off future, Anthem traces the story of one man's discovery of his own value in the midst of a world that has abolished all concept of self. After discovering a buried technology from a past that has been carefully obscured by governmental authorities, our unnamed hero slowly unravels the lies he's been made to believe for his entire life.
In presenting a world where collective thought is more valued than the rights of the individual, Rand strikes a parallel with the socialistic thinking that compelled her to leave her native Soviet Russia. As with all great Science Fiction tales, Anthem challenges us to cast a hard eye on present trends so that we might avert future catastrophe.

Living his life in England, Allen worked as an executive secretary until retiring at the age of 38 to live out the rest of his days in quiet contemplation. The result of these 9 years of self-examination is a body of work that has finally found its way to popular attention. Allen died at the age of 48 in 1912, leaving behind a legacy that would help inspire the modern self-help movement.

The essays that make up this slim volume were first published anonymously in 1836. Here Emerson lays down the foundation of what would later become known as transcendentalism; a world-view that argues for a new perspective on how humans can interact with the natural world. Using bold imagery and beautifully written language to illustrate his points, Emerson formulates a belief system where nature itself is a divine entity that we can know directly.
With Nature and the essays that followed, Emerson established himself as one of the first quintessentially American writers. His influence can be felt in the work of contemporaries such as Walt Whitman, and ideological heirs like Henry David Thoreau. We are pleased to present to you this American classic on audio.

Holmes goes on to explore how we might all tap into this inherent creative source in order to realize our truest natures. Written with an instructional basis, Creative Mind serves as a great entry-level seminar on how we might all transform our outer reality by tuning in to an enduring inner reality that is behind all.
Ernest Holmes was an American writer and spiritual teacher. He was the founder of a spiritual movement known as Religious Science, a key figure in the New Thought movement, and the author of The Science of Mind.

Coming into existence during a particularly war-torn period in Chinese history know as the Spring and Autmn period, this text came about at a time of newfound literacy and burgeoning awareness in ancient chinese thought. Probably written posthumously over a period of many years by his disciples, Confucious' main values of propriety, rightiousness, loyalty and filial piety are repeated throughout the book via various examples and conversations. This code of ethics has come to form the backdrop of chinese conduct and is a core text in modern chinese education. LearnOutLoud.com is pleased to offer a recording of this collection so that you may hear one of the most important voices in eastern spiritual philosophy.

Taken up late in the third President's life, this personal project endeavored to separate Christ's philosophy from the centuries of dogma that Jefferson thought only served to over-complicate what was originally a simple theology. Since it was intended for self-study, Jefferson's personal Bible was never published in his lifetime, though there is some indication that he believed this concise Gospel might be more palatable to the Native American population as an educational tool. The result of Jefferson's distillation process is a stark presentation of Christ's ministry, where the sheer power of Jesus' parables demonstrate how he gained such a quick following and why he ultimately became a threat to local authorities. One will also note that all reference to Christ's divine nature have also been cut, but this takes nothing away from a message that remains as moving and challenging as ever.

Feeling called by God to act as a medium, Benner's book was intended as a direct revelation from the divine source behind all living beings. The book teaches readers to move away from outward, personality-driven sources of happiness, and instead look beyond the intellect for an "impersonal", direct understanding of the relationship between God and his creation. With a clearer understanding of the connection shared by all living things, one can better clarify what they are put on this earth to do. In the last century, The Impersonal Life has garnered many notable fans, including not only Elvis Presley, but the "father of motivation" himself, Dr. Wayne Dyer.

With "The Will to Believe", first published in 1896, he argues that it is defendable to adopt a certain belief without prior evidence of its truth. Taking religious belief as his primary example, James claims that even scientific inquiry is oftentimes undertaken with a belief that a given experiment will bear out a hypothesis. In this way, he goes on to argue that human beings have an innate religious intuition which has led to a belief in God even before the truth of God's existence can be proven. With a deeply probing mind, James illustrates with this lecture why he was one of the leading lights in an era that was just coming to grips with the scientific breakthroughs that would flourish in the 20th century.

With recent interest in New Thought principles at a high (such as the Law of Attraction that is the basis for the movie and the book The Secret), we thought it timely to present this cornerstone of the New Thought Movement.
As Atkinson states through this book, the Law of Attraction posits that one should never dwell on the negative, as the "metaphysical principle of life" is embodied in a "law of attraction". In other words, you get what you think about and your thoughts determine your destiny.
Throughout the book, Atkinson gives a detailed examination of how to put this philosophy to practice, giving the reader encouragement as they go along. LearnOutLoud is pleased to bring this book to you in audio form, both as a historical document and a great way to inspire success.

It is Swift's best known full-length work, and a classic of English literature. The book became popular as soon as it was published.

The story follows the main character Elizabeth Bennet as she deals with issues of manners, upbringing, morality, education, and marriage in the society of the landed gentry of early 19th-century England. Elizabeth is the second of five daughters of a country gentleman living near the fictional town of Meryton in Hertfordshire, near London.
Though the story is set at the turn of the 19th century, it retains a fascination for modern readers, continuing near the top of lists of "most loved books". It has become one of the most popular novels in English literature and receives considerable attention from literary scholars. Modern interest in the book has resulted in a number of dramatic adaptations and an abundance of novels and stories imitating Austen's memorable characters or themes.

It was published on 16 October 1847, under the pen name "Currer Bell." Primarily of the bildungsroman genre, Jane Eyre follows the emotions and experiences of its eponymous character, including her growth to adulthood, and her love for Mr. Rochester, the byronic master of fictitious Thornfield Hall. In its internalization of the action — the focus is on the gradual unfolding of Jane's moral and spiritual sensibility and all the events are coloured by a heightened intensity that was previously the domain of poetry — the novel revolutionised the art of fiction. Charlotte Brontë has been called the 'first historian of the private consciousness' and the literary ancestor of writers like Joyce and Proust. The novel contains elements of social criticism, with a strong sense of morality at its core, but is nonetheless a novel many consider ahead of its time given the individualistic character of Jane and the novel's exploration of classism, sexuality, religion, and proto-feminism.
