- It will be found that the creative power of thought will explain every possible condition or experience, whether physical, mental or spiritual.
- Thought will bring about conditions in correspondence with the predominant mental attitude. Therefore, if we love success, as love is a powerful form of thought, success will be the certain result of our thinking. It is this form of thought which frequently maintains the result of many years of work and effort.
- If we think of some form of spiritual wealth we may secure it. By concentrated thought the required conditions will be brought about, and the proper effort put forth, which will result in bringing about the circumstances necessary to realize our desires; we sometimes find that when we secure the things we thought we wanted, they do have the effect we expected. That is, the satisfaction is permanent, and is exactly what we expected.
- What, then, is the proper method of procedure? What are we to think in order to secure what we really desire? What you and I desire, what we all desire, what everyone is seeking, is Happiness and Harmony. If we can be truly happy we shall have everything the world can give. If we are happy ourselves we can make others happy.
- But we cannot be happy unless we have, health, strength, congenial friends, pleasant environment, sufficient supply, not only to take care of our necessities but to provide for those comforts and luxuries to which we are entitled.
- Be satisfied and grateful with your portion whatever it is; but know that you are entitled to the best of everything, that the you are one with the Infinite and that the Infinite is the Universal Mind, the Creator, the Original Substance from which all things proceed.
- Now admitting that this is all true in theory, and it has been taught for two thousand years, and is the essence of every system of Philosophy or Knowledge, how are we to make it practical in our lives? How are we to get the actual, tangible results here and now?
