Below are my personal notes of The Game of Life and How to Play It. These highlights were what I used to write my personal development book, Wiser Next Week, a condensation of many different self improvement books.

---

• There is always plenty on a man’s pathway, but it can only be brought into manifestation through desire, faith or spoken words
• “Ask and it shall be given you, seek and ye shall find, knock and it shall be opened onto you.” (Mat. 7:7)

• If one asks for success and prepares for failure, he will receive the situation he has prepared for

Reciprocity

• What a man says of others will be said of him, and what he wishes for another, he is wishing for himself. 
  • “Curses, like chickens, come home to roost.” 
• Many people have attracted disease and unhappiness through condemnation of others
• Man should receive gratefully the bread returning to him upon the water, freely ye has given, freely ye shall receive

• Man can only be what he sees himself to be, and only attain what he sees himself attaining. 
• You can never receive what you have never given

Fear

• “The lion takes its fierceness from your fear.”
  • Walk up to the lion and he will disappear, run away and he runs after you

Learning

• No man is your enemy, no man is your friend, every man is your teacher
  • So become impersonal and learn what each man has to teach

Clearing the Conscious

• People are sometimes filled with remorse for doing someone an unkindness, perhaps years ago
• If the wrong can’t be righted, its effect can be neutralized by doing someone a kindness in the present

• Two attitudes of mind cause loss: 

1. Lack of appreciation of what one has
2. Fear of loss, which becomes painted into the subconscious
