Methods of Obtaining Success purposefully tackles the topic of achieving success. The author Doctor Julia Seton was a prolific in writing motivational and self-help books; publishing a series of books on themes such as marriage, money matter, and how to achieve health and happiness.
Methods of Obtaining Success outlines the four "planes of expression" through which Seton contended all individuals express themselves. These planes are body, mind, soul, and spirit. Creating unity between these planes forms the core of Seton's guidelines for attaining success. Essentially, one must live a balanced life in order to be successful.
Seton relies on religious teachings throughout the book. Seton states, "Jesus said, 'all that my Father hath is mine,' but he also taught that this was only true when man became a good steward for his Father's supply." Thus, it is argued that living a spiritual life in observance of The Bible is an central aspect of obtaining success.
Methods of Obtaining Success can be an important read for those seeking a self-help book, and who are also followers of, or at least open to learning about, a Christian religion. Seton's words are definitive yet encouraging, and her voice may guide some on a path to achieving successes.
