Applied Psychology: Driving Power of Thought Being the Third in a Series of Twelve Volumes on the Applications of Psychology to the Problems of Personal and Business Efficiency

In this concise guide, the author unveils how every idea we entertain carries a hidden kinetic force that can be harnessed for both personal growth and business success. Drawing on early twentieth‑century experiments by pioneers such as Prince, Gerrish, Sidis, Janet, and Binet, the text shows how specific classes of thoughts can trigger real‑world action, from healing ailments to boosting productivity. Readers are introduced to the two fundamental mental operations—the sense‑perceptive process and the judicial process—and learn how selective attention shapes the mental environment that drives achievement.

The second half moves from theory to practice, offering concrete techniques for measuring and training mental speed, accuracy, and suggestion. By exploring simple yet powerful tests for decision‑making, creativity, and emotional energy, the book equips professionals with tools to evaluate employees, sharpen their own thinking, and align ideas with tangible outcomes. Its blend of scientific insight and actionable advice makes it a valuable companion for anyone seeking to turn thought into effective, measurable results.
