“Calmness is the rarest quality in human life. It is the poise of a great nature, in harmony with itself and its ideals. It is the moral atmosphere of a life self-centred, self-reliant, and self-controlled. Calmness is singleness of purpose, absolute confidence, and conscious power, ready to be focused in an instant to meet any crisis.”
So begins “The Majesty of Calmness” by William George Jordan, a classic how to on achieving the inner peace of calmness.
According to Jordan, Calmness comes from within. Calmness is a peace and restfulness at the depths of our nature. The fury of storm and wind agitate only the surface of the sea. Below the first two or three hundred feet is the calm, unruffled deep. To ready oneself for the great crises of life, one must develop the daily serenity of the tranquil deep.
William George Jordan shows you how to acquire the tranquil deep in seven brief but powerful chapters:
1) THE MAJESTY OF CALMNESS
2) HURRY, THE SCOURGE OF AMERICA
3) THE POWER OF PERSONAL INFLUENCE
4) THE DIGNITY OF SELF-RELIANCE
