Since the dawn of recorded time when our ancestors
first gathered together as cave dwellers, certain
individuals have emerged from the crowd -
socrates, king arthur, joan of arc, the beatles -
e
Es of the will powers approach to life shine down
to us across the ages, like beacons illuminating
the path each man must travel, reminding us of
how far a human being can go.


With the will powers mental picture method, you
select a great personage as your constant
companion; you get to know his handicaps and how
he overcame them. he becomes your secret source
of strength and inspiration.

Cleopatra reigned over ancient egyptian empire
and enthralled two of the noblest romans of all
time - mark antony and julius caesar. artists
portray her as a beauty but historians tell us
that the real queen of the nile was short, hairy,
and overweight. she was also not an egyptian.
cleopatra overcame those natural flaws with charm
and a positive attitude.

Beethoven lost his hearing yet went on to compose
immortal symphonies. helen keller was born without
the ability to speak yet she lectured around the
world. milton could no longer see when he wrote
the classic paradise lost. deaf, dumb, blind -
handicaps which might have stopped them cold, but
instead spurred them on to their greatest
achievements. and did I mention julius caesar,
conqueror of the then known world? he was from
birth an epileptic.

Great men have always drawn strength from great
men who preceded them. during the darkest hours
of the cuban missile crisis, president john f
kennedy found courage through the mental picture
method. he turned to his mental picture of babe
ruth, the home run king who held the major league
record for strike-outs. and who was in babe ruth’s
mind when he stepped up to the plate? none other
than thomas a edison, who after a thousand failed
inventions managed to come up with the light bulb,
the telephone transmitter and the phonograph.

No one is holding you back but you. there is no
excuse for not getting what you want. the mental
