About this book
Self-Control, Its Kingship and Majesty by William George Jordan gathers chapters that include The Kingship of Self-Control, The Crimes of the Tongue and The Red Tape of Duty. The contents also list Worry, the Great American Disease, Hurry, the Scourge of America, and Failure as a Success.
One chapter says that Nature is a thorough believer in the installment plan in her relations with the individual, and that no man can make a habit in a moment or break it in a moment. The book says self-control may be developed in precisely the same manner as we tone up a weak muscle, by little exercises day by day. The book speaks of Reserve Power as ever giving a man new strength, even while he sleeps. The book also says Content is a mental and moral chloroform that deadens the activities of the individual to rise to higher planes of life and growth.
