Seven Common Faults: Grumbling, Temper, Thoughtlessness, Selfishness, Over-Anxiety, Indolence, Self-Will (1864)

Seven Common Faults: Grumbling, Temper, Thoughtlessness, Selfishness, Over-Anxiety, Indolence, Self-Will is a book written by James Erasmus Philipps and originally published in 1864. The book explores seven common faults that can hinder personal growth and relationships with others. The first fault, grumbling, is about the tendency to complain and focus on the negative aspects of life. The second fault, temper, is about the inability to control one's emotions and react appropriately in difficult situations. Thoughtlessness is the third fault, which refers to the lack of consideration for others and the consequences of one's actions. Selfishness is the fourth fault, which is about prioritizing one's own needs and desires over others. Over-anxiety is the fifth fault, which refers to excessive worry and fear that can lead to irrational behavior. The sixth fault, indolence, is about laziness and the lack of motivation to pursue goals. Finally, self-will is the seventh fault, which refers to the stubbornness and refusal to listen to the advice or opinions of others. Throughout the book, Philipps provides practical advice and insights on how to overcome these faults and cultivate positive habits and attitudes. The book is a valuable resource for anyone seeking personal growth and improvement in their relationships with others.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
