"Books, not unlike people, are multi-dimensional portals into other worlds — realms beyond the visual simulation that we co-exist within. To open a book is to pierce the dark veil of 3rd dimensional limitative living and embark towards the ever-present light of immortality." ― C.K. Lee

"The consideration of man's body has not changed to meet the new conditions of this artificial environment that has replaced his natural one. The result is that of perceptual discord between man and his environment. The effect of this discord is a general deterioration of man's body, the symptoms of which are termed disease." ― Hilton Hotema

“Our highest endeavor must be to develop free human beings who are able of themselves to impart purpose and direction to their lives. The need for imagination... a sense of truth... and a feeling of responsibility... these three forces are the very nerve of education.” ― Rudolf Steiner
Originally published in 1928, Your Own Path is a thoughtful exploration of self-development, personal responsibility, and the power of directing one's life through conscious choice. Writing during a period when New Thought philosophy, practical psychology, and metaphysical self-improvement were gaining widespread attention, Elise Nevens Morgan presents a vision of personal growth rooted in individual effort, character, and inner conviction.
Rather than offering rigid formulas, Morgan encourages readers to discover and follow their own path through life—one shaped by self-knowledge, purpose, and an understanding of the relationship between thought and experience. Throughout the work, themes of personal transformation, constructive thinking, and the cultivation of inner strength emerge as guiding principles for navigating life's opportunities and challenges.
Drawing from the spirit of early twentieth-century self-help and New Thought literature, Your Own Path reflects a period when many writers sought to empower individuals to become active participants in shaping their destiny. Nearly a century later, its message remains remarkably relevant for readers interested in personal growth, self-mastery, and the enduring question of how one's inner life influences the world without.
A fascinating and often overlooked work from the golden age of New Thought literature.
