THE UNIVERSAL LAW OF COSMIC HABIT FORCE IOIlupon all your thought habits by crystallizing them into varying degrees
of permanency and translating them into their physical equivalent,
through inspired motivation to action.
It not only fixes the thought habits of individuals but it also fixes
the thought habits of groups and masses of people, according to the
pattern established by the preponderance of their individual domin-
ating thoughts.
The same rule applies to the individual who thinks and talks of
disease. At first that person is regarded as a hypochondriac, one who
suffers with imaginary illness. But when the habit is maintained, the
disease thus manifested or one very closely akin to it generally makes
its appearance. Cosmic Habitforce attends to this, for it is true that
any thought held in the mind through repetition begins immediately
to translate itself into its physical equivalent.
It is a sad commentary on the intelligence of people to observe
how many go through life in poverty and want, although the reason
for this is not difficult to understand if one recognizes the working
principle of Cosmic Habitforce.
Poverty is the direct result of a "poverty consciousness," which
results from thinking in terms of poverty, fearing poverty, and talking
of poverty. But if you desire wealth, give orders to your subconscious
mind to produce wealth, thus developing a "prosperity consciousness;'
and see how quickly your economic condition will improve.
First comes the "consciousness" of that which you desire. Then
follows the physical or mental manifestation of your desires. The
consciousness is your responsibility. It is something you must create
by your daily thoughts, or by meditation if you prefer. In this manner
one may ally themself with no less a power than that of the Creator
of all things.
"I have come to the conclusion," said a great philosopher, "that
the acceptance of poverty, or the acceptance of ill health, is an open
confession of the lack of faith." We do a lot of proclaiming of faith,
