a course in Abundance: Habitual Diligence

The second half of your life is usually made up of nothing
but the habits you acquired during the first half.
Feodor Dostoevski

Charles Dickens, the beloved 19th century author whose books and short stories have never gone out of print since, summed up his secret to his success in one sentence: "I never could have done what I have done without the habits of punctuality, order, and diligence, without the determination to concentrate myself on one subject at a time."

Having fundamentally established a set of powerful habits to govern the physical and emotional self in the previous courses, the following program helps the participant develop a powerful set of routines for making the most of their mental-creative dimension. 'Everything yields to diligence', as the greek poet Antiphanes wrote.

Diligence is the key to developing authentic self-esteem and dignity. Real self-esteem is not something that can be purchased by mere self-affirmation or by the praise of others, nor can it be bought or fabricated. It comes about as the natural effect of diligent work.

'a course in Abundance' helps self-actualizers to habitualize ways to better manage their outer resource like time and money, through their inner resources of initiative and concentration - to effectively actualize their 'definitive purpose', and in turn, the actualization of an abundant life.

Diligence is the mother of good fortune, and idleness, its opposite,
never brought a man to the goal of any of his best wishes.
Miguel de Cervantes

Your Course of Habitualization
The course is built upon the first theological virtue of faith - the substance of things hoped for, the evidence not seen - to establish a solid-rock foundation in the pursuit of living out one's dream life.

The course includes readings, lessons, exercises and workshops in vital business strategies, career development pathways, as well as critical philosophical understandings that that greats have used. Individuals work privately and in teams to produce customized, action-centered plans that will lead to better methods for getting this done, and more importantly, that the right things get done.

Prerequisite: a course in Harmony: HABITUAL PASSION

The expectations of life depend upon diligence;
the mechanic that would perfect his work must first sharpen his tools.
Confucius
