Applied Psychology MAKING YOUR OWN WORLD
Chapter I

Chapter III
Chapter IV
Chapter V
This volume treats the mind as the primary instrument for accomplishing any goal. Building on the idea that all bodily activity stems from mental direction, it outlines two core mental processes – the sense‑perceptive stream that gathers raw experience, and the judicial stream that turns those impressions into useful abstractions. The author explains how each sense feeds the mind, explores the reliability of perception, and offers simple exercises to sharpen attention and reaction time.
In the second half, the text moves from theory to everyday practice. It shows how sensory tricks and subtle suggestions can improve business communications, aid in hiring decisions, and even make written material appear more persuasive. Finally, a series of concise techniques aim to help readers manage worry, balance mental energy, and shape their own destiny by pre‑arranging conscious choices. Listeners will come away with concrete tools they can try right away in work and personal life.
