Summary | "The Majesty of Calmness: Individual Problems and Possibilities" by William George Jordan is a philosophical self-help book written in the early 20th century. The text addresses the importance of maintaining calmness and self-control amid the chaos of modern life, emphasizing that true strength and happiness stem from within. Through a series of essays, Jordan explores individual challenges and aspirations, offering insights on personal growth and the cultivation of positive character traits. In this book, Jordan discusses several key concepts, including the detrimental effects of hurry, the power of personal influence, and the significance of self-reliance. He elaborates on how calmness acts as a stabilizing force in life, helping individuals navigate personal crises and societal challenges with dignity and grace. Each chapter encourages readers to reflect on their lives, emphasizing that happiness comes from loving and serving others rather than from the pursuit of material possessions. Ultimately, Jordan's work serves as a guide to achieving inner peace, self-improvement, and a fulfilling life through steadfast commitment to high ideals and unselfishness.
