On this episode of the Gnostic Deluge, we are finishing what we started last episode as we cover the second half of Arnold Bennett's "How to Live on 24 Hours a day." Arnold showed us that we have time that we don't use productively as we are wrapped up in our daily work; now it is time to take back some of that time. We can use the reclaimed time to start to develop, control, expand and explore our mind and begin to make the most of all 24 hours a day. Enjoy!
