Free Personal Development Material

I just came across an outstanding resource for free educational and personal development audiobooks: LearnOutLoud.com.  As I write this, I’m listening to a perfectly recorded free audio version of As A Man Thinketh by James Allen.

As I browsed around the site, I came across the following free titles that readers of this blog might be interested in:

• Self Reliance by Ralph Waldo Emerson
• Yes You Can by Jim Donovan
• Extraordinary Leadership by Robin Sharma
• The Fundamental Principles of Personal Wealth by Unknown
• Zaadz: 50 Things I’m Going to Do Today by Brian Johnson
• The Practice of the Presence of God by Brother Lawrence
• As A Man Thinketh by James Allen (yes, it’s worth mentioning twice!)

Those just scratch the surface - the LearnOutLoud.com Free Directory has over 500 titles available in downloadable audio and streaming video format, and their podcast directory currently has 195 titles available in the Self Development category alone.  I’d also recommend that you subscribe to their blog and newsletters so you can keep up to date on the newest titles as they are added.

Happy listening and learning!

One of the processes that Abraham-Hicks detail in their book “Ask and It Is Given: Learning to Manifest Your Desires” is the Place Mat Process.  It’s a simple and effective way to lighten your load if your to-do list seems to be getting larger than you can handle.

Ellie Walsh of Living the Law of Attraction has created a beautiful, useful, and free template that you can use when planning your day using the Place Mat Process - both the process and the template (in pdf format) can be found at Ellie’s blog in the article So Many Things to Do? Tell Your Personal Assistant!.

Thanks for creating this, Ellie!
