Elsie Lincoln Benedict (née Vandegrift; November 2, 1885 – February 5, 1970), also known as 'The Wonder Woman', was advertised as the world's best known lecturer during the 1920s and 1930s, speaking to over 3 million people in her lifetime and writing on what Napoleon Hill and Dale Carnegie and a long list of men would do later. Renowned for her collegiate debate skills, emerged as a key figure in the national suffrage movement being personally recruited by Carrie Chapman Catt for national suffrage advocacy as the second-highest paid American suffragist leader. She would later take to the worldwide stage promoting the law of attraction through her many free and paid lecture series. She was the founder of Brainology, a famous course on scientific mind training.
There are no accidents. Everything that happens in our individual world, just as every occurrence in the material universe, is brought about by the operation of law. The person who is constantly meeting unhappiness, poverty, disease and failure in his life is creating these things for himself. He may be ever so well-meaning. Personal hells too are often “paved with good intentions.” We make or unmake ourselves. In the great subconscious armory we forge the weapons that destroy us or the tools by which we build palaces of peace, power and prosperity.
Most people use less brains in selecting the person with whom they are to spend their lives than they do in choosing an automobile, a bicycle or a cut of steak. Love isn’t enough; there must also be understanding.
