Meet Tricky—the most mischievous (and utterly unkillable!) monkey you’ll ever encounter. Rescued from a rough start by a kind missionary, this little troublemaker swings from one chaotic escapade to the next, leaving a trail of baffled humans in his wake. Whether escaping hangings, outsmarting sailors, or surviving gunfire (with nothing but a singed tail to show for it!), Tricky’s luck is as uncanny as his antics are outrageous.

One of the biggest secrets of the ages is this: thought is creative. Thought creates reality—no matter how much it might seem otherwise. This is the secret of power, success, love, and health.

These twelve classic works all describe the true power of mind and how to make it work for you to achieve success and fulfillment in all areas of life: work, money, relationships, even luck.

That the Phenomena of the Spiritual World are in analogy with the Phenomena of the Natural World requires no restatement.

The ability to make sound and timely decisions is the mark of a good leader. But when leaders with otherwise strong track records suddenly begin making poor decisions - as seen in the recent corporate scandals that rocked the business world - the impact can be widespread.
