Practical Memory Training

Rate this book
William Walker Atkinson ( 1862 – 1932) was an attorney, merchant, publisher, and author, as well as an American pioneer of the New Thought movement. He is also the author of the pseudonymous works attributed to Theron Q. Dumont and Yogi Ramacharaka.

In this book he writes:
"Memory the chief priest in the Temple of Mind. Memory the golden thread that links all the mental gifts together. Some memories like marble; other like soft sand. Shifting character the result of poor memory. The habitual “forgettor” is apt to be a social nuisance. The educated man a dunce if his memory is poor. The best memory may be improved, and the poorest rendered far above the average by scientific memory training. Marvellous results possible under the system and principles taught in this book. How science remedies nature's defects. All human efficiency depends upon memory for its basic powers. Every act of efficiency really an act of memory. Genius is the infinite capacity for taking pains—plus a good memory. "

This book originally published in 1916 has been reformatted for the Kindle and may contain an occasional imperfection from the original publication or from the reformatting.
