"Key (10)

To Yourself"

Thought. Law.

"All is in the Silence waiting to be brought Forth to form and substance by the builder, Thought, That is how God fashioned everything He wrought, Everything you long for, in the Silence wait, Yours the power to shape them either soon or late, But be very careful how you form your fate." --Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Thinking is the true business of life. Thinkers rule the world. They always have and they always will. All people think, but the tragedy of life is that so few of us think creatively or constructively; so few recognize the fact that thought is a creative force. Every achievement in business, literature, philosophy, or science has found its source and expression, through the mental efforts of the world's leaders. The outstanding figures of tomorrow are the creative and constructive thinkers of today.

We live in the same world and are as far apart of the difference in our thought processes. Some fail while others succeed; some are sick, others are healthy; some are miserable, others happy. We all want to blame luck or fate or some one of our fellow men, but the difference is within ourselves. We are the product of our prevailing habits of thought.

Each is building his own world from within; though is the builder; subtle vital; irresistible, omnipotent; and according as we use our thought forces do they bring us joy or sorrow, peach or pain, success or failure. Men, events and conditions are relative only; EVERY EXPERIENCE WITH WHICH YOU MEET HAS BEEN BUILT FOR YOU BY YOUR OWN INTERIOR THOUGHT PROCESS.

The world without is merely a reflection of what you have acknowledged as true in your world within, so if the state of your health or finances is not all you desire, you must look within yourself for the cause. Regardless of what the condition is, or how it seemed to have come about, its cause had to find place in your consciousness before it came into expression. That a man can change himself, recreate himself, improve himself, control his environment, and master his own destiny is not a theory with the writer but a matter of positive knowledge.

There is no such thing as luck or chance; on the contrary our lives are governed by law, by actual, immutable principles that never vary. Law is in operation at all times, in all places; mighty silent, fixed laws that underlie every human action, that bring to us, with exact precision, the full measure of our thoughts. Laws that favor no individual, and are no respector of persons. In a sense there is nothing in all the universe but law; every tree that grows, every flower that blooms, every snowflake that falls, testifies to the unceasing operation of this great law.

We all admit Natural Laws in regards to the vegetable kingdom; we also accept the fact that the sun, moon, stars and tides of the sea are controlled by law, but it has not occurred to the majority of us that man is just as subject to law as the vast panorama of nature. It is law that makes the universe so harmoniously exact; if there was not law we could never be sure the sun would rise or the seasons come in rotation.

THERE IS BUT ONE LAW, ONE PRINCIPLE, ONE CAUSE, ONE SOURCE OF POWER. We cannot change the law, but we may bring ourselves, through our thought processes, into harmony with the law and let the law work with us, through us, and for us.

It is natural for man to be healthy and whole in mind and body, and for him to abound in all good. When one learns this truth, and lives in accord with the laws of his being, health and prosperity spring forth naturally and abundantly.

The majority of people believe that peace and plenty on one hand, and poverty and sickness on the other is somehow interwoven in divine providence; but those who know the truth understand that life, health and abundance are a natural law of the universe, and thought is the active principle by which we are related to the things we need and desire.

THOUGHTS ARE THINGS. Thought causes vibration and set in motion the Law of Mind. Since everything has its beginning in mind, and as thought, which is mind in action, produces form, we realize that thought is creative.

That which we call our subconscious mind, being a point in Universal Creative Law and being immediately available to us, guarantees that we have at our disposal the use of a law which is not only immediate, being inside of us, but it is also in connection with everything else in the universe.

It is the belief in separation from God which keeps our good away from us. It is the belief that binds us, and not any actual power. We are relly bound by our false beliefs, and we shall never be permanently free until we experience a complete change of thought. This is what is meant by "The Renewing of the Mind."

CONSCIOUSNESS. CONCENTRATION. THE SILENCE.

"Our remedies in ourselves do lie which we ascribe to Heaven." --Shakespeare.

Recognize that all of civilization's greatest minds have been murdered due to radical paths of thought and idealogy. So I suppose it really depends on which side of the prism you look at?

Our job as humans is to hold on to the thoughts of what we want, make it absolutely clear in our minds what we want, and from that we start to invoke one of the greatest laws in the Universe, and that's the law of attraction. You become what you think about most, but you also attract what you think about most.

Your life right now is a reflection of your past thoughts. That includes the great things and all the things you consider not so great. Since you attract to you what you think about most, it's easy to see what your dominant thoughts have been on every subject of your life, because it is what you have experienced. --John Assaraf THE SECRET

Dennis, Thanks for posting.

Yes, your right it does

matter what point of view one takes on such things. What this one

is all about is that it is so important to focus on the positive

things that you want in your life. One must really watch what they

say. You have account for every idle word. Never say, "I will

fail; I will lose my job; I can't pay the rent." Your subconscious

cannot take a joke. It brings all things to pass.

Perhaps, though there are times where people fail to see positive aspects of their lives because simply none exist at present, and I see nothing wrong with people not dwelling in the past.
