Keys to an Inspired Life

Living from the Soul distills the essence of Ralph Waldo Emerson's philosophy in concise, contemporary language. It illuminates the seven principles that led Emerson through in his darkest days, and to which he held for the rest of his life:

1. Trust Yourself
All that you need for growth and guidance in life is already present inside you.

2. As You Sow, You Will Reap
Your thoughts and actions shape your character, and your character determines your destiny.

3. Nothing Outside You Can Harm You
Circumstances and events don't matter as much as how you deal with them.

4. The Universe Is Inside You
The world around you is a reflection of the world within you.

5. Identify with the Infinite
Center your identity on the soul and your life's purpose will unfold.

6. Live in the Present
The present moment is your point of power. Eternity is now.

7. Seek God Within
The highest revelation is the divinity of the soul.
