The Kybalion and Hermetic Philosophy

Although I usually stick to reading personal finance or economics books, I'm always up for reading something new, so I gladly accepted the challenge when one of my friends invited me to read "The Kybalion." The Kybalion is a book about Hermetic philosophy and was written in 1908 under the pseudonym of "The Three Initiates". The book is a fairly short read, and although it can sometimes come off as bit "overly mystical", I felt that it still contained valuable principles that can be applied towards mastering our personal lives.
