About this ebook

I Can and I Will!!! Have you ever said these words to yourself with a firm conviction that you were speaking the truth-with the strong feeling that needed no other proof. If so, you then felt within you a thrill which seemed to cause every atom of your being to vibrate in harmony with some note in the grand scale of Life, sounded by the Real Self. You caught a momentary glimpse of the Inner Light-heard a stray note of the Song of the Soul-were conscious for the moment of YOURSELF. And in that moment of ecstasy you knew that untold power and possibilities were yours. You felt that you were in touch with all Strength, Power, Knowledge, Happiness and Peace. You felt that you were equal to any task-capable of executing any undertaking. For the moment there was no Fear in the world for you. All the Universe seemed to vibrate in the same key with your thought. For the moment you recognized the truth. (Goodreads)

About the author

William Walker Atkinson (1862-1932) was a multifaceted American figure whose life and work spanned law, business, and the burgeoning field of New Thought philosophy. Born in Baltimore, Maryland, Atkinson initially pursued a career in law, achieving considerable success. However, the stress of his professional life took a toll on his health, leading him to explore alternative healing and spiritual practices.Atkinson's journey into metaphysical realms began in earnest in the late 19th century, when he became deeply involved in the New Thought movement, which emphasized the power of the mind in achieving personal and spiritual transformation. Under various pseudonyms, including Yogi Ramacharaka and Theron Q. Dumont, he authored over 100 books and pamphlets, covering topics from mental science and personal magnetism to occultism and Eastern philosophies.One of Atkinson's most revolutionary ideas was the concept of "thought vibration," which posited that thoughts have a tangible energy that can influence reality. This idea prefigured many modern self-help and motivational theories, making him a precursor to contemporary figures like Norman Vincent Peale and Rhonda Byrne.Atkinson's work was not without controversy. Critics often questioned the authenticity of his Eastern teachings, given his Western background. Nonetheless, his writings have had a lasting impact, influencing both the New Age movement and modern self-help literature. His ability to synthesize Eastern and Western philosophies into accessible teachings continues to resonate with readers seeking spiritual and personal growth.
