""Why Poverty Is A Mental Disability"" is a thought-provoking book that explores the relationship between poverty and mental health. Written by Orison Swett Marden, a renowned American author and founder of Success Magazine, this book argues that poverty is not just a financial condition but also a mental disability that affects one's ability to think, learn, and grow.Marden draws on his own experiences growing up in poverty and his observations of others to illustrate how poverty can impact one's mindset and limit their potential. He argues that poverty can create a negative cycle of self-doubt, low self-esteem, and limited opportunities, which can ultimately lead to mental health issues such as anxiety and depression.The book also explores the societal factors that contribute to poverty, including systemic racism and inequality, lack of access to education and resources, and the stigma surrounding mental health. Marden argues that addressing these root causes is essential to breaking the cycle of poverty and improving mental health outcomes for those living in poverty.Overall, ""Why Poverty Is A Mental Disability"" is a compelling and insightful read that challenges readers to rethink their perceptions of poverty and mental health. It offers a unique perspective on a complex issue and provides practical solutions for addressing poverty and improving mental health outcomes for all.THIS 26 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Peace, Power and Plenty, by Orison Swett Marden.
