with emotion may be compared to a seed which, when planted in fertile soil,
germinates, grows, and multiplies itself over and over again, until that which was
originally one small seed, becomes countless millions of seeds of the SAME BRAND!
The ether is a great cosmic mass of eternal forces of vibration. It is made up of both
destructive vibrations and constructive vibrations. It carries, at all times, vibrations of
fear, poverty, disease, failure, misery; and vibrations of prosperity, health, success, and
happiness, just as surely as it carries the sound of hundreds of orchestrations of music,
and hundreds of human voices, all of which maintain their own individuality, and means
of identification, through the medium of radio.
From the great storehouse of the ether, the human mind is constantly attracting
vibrations which harmonize with that which DOMINATES the human mind. Any
thought, idea, plan, or purpose which one holds in one's mind attracts, from the
vibrations of the ether, a host of its relatives, adds these "relatives" to its own force, and
grows until it becomes the dominating, MOTIVATING MASTER of the individual in
whose mind it has been housed.
Now, let us go back to the starting point, and become informed as to how the original
seed of an idea, plan, or purpose may be planted in the mind. The information is easily
conveyed: any idea, plan, or purpose may be placed in the mind through repetition of
thought. This is why you are asked to write out a statement of your major purpose, or
Definite Chief Aim, commit it to memory, and repeat it, in audible words, day after day,
until these vibrations of sound have reached your subconscious mind.
We are what we are, because of the vibrations of thought which we pick up and register,
through the stimuli of our daily environment.
Resolve to throw off the influences of any unfortunate environment, and to build your
own life to ORDER. Taking inventory of mental assets and liabilities, you will discover
that your greatest weakness is lack of self-confidence. This handicap can be
surmounted, and timidity translated into courage, through the aid of the principle of
autosuggestion. The application of this principle may be made through a simple
arrangement of positive thought impulses stated in writing, memorized, and repeated,
until they become a part of the working equipment of the subconscious faculty of your
mind.
SELF-CONFIDENCE FORMULA
First. I know that I have the ability to achieve the object of my Definite Purpose in life,
therefore, I DEMAND of myself persistent, continuous action toward its attainment, and
I here and now promise to render such action.
Second. I realize the dominating thoughts of my mind will eventually reproduce
themselves in outward, physical action, and gradually transform themselves into
physical reality, therefore, I will concentrate my thoughts for thirty minutes daily, upon
the task of thinking of the person I intend to become, thereby creating in my mind a
clear mental picture of that person.
Third. I know through the principle of auto-suggestion, any desire that I persistently
hold in my mind will eventually seek expression through some practical means of
attaining the object back of it, therefore, I will devote ten minutes daily to demanding of
myself the development of SELF-CONFIDENCE.
