Strength Of Will (1915)

In These Pages An Effort Is Made To Give A Plain Account Of The Will And To Indicate A Method Whereby It May Be Improved And Strengthened. . An Effort Is Made Also To Present The Matter In An Attractive Way So That A Certain Interest May Be Taken In The Activities Of The Will And So That When Familiarized With Introspection One May Find Profit And Amusement From Studying The Details Of The Wonderful Life That Goes On Within. . As Far As Possible Technical Terms And Abstruse Discussions Are Avoided. Indeed There Seems No Need To Introduce Metaphysics As Our Method Is To Observe And Describe As Do Experimentalists And To Keep Close To What Is Concrete. These Pages Tell Of What Is Felt And Seen Not Of Course By The Fingers Or Eyes Of The Body But By The Faculties Of The Mind. The Spirit Can Probe And Poke About Into Its Own Dark Corners And Can Ride Fast After Its Own Swift Movements.
