The Power of Your Subconscious Mind

by Joseph Murphy

Your prayer is answered because your subconscious mind is principle, and by principle I mean the way a thing works.

Your subconscious mind is principle and works according to the law of belief.

The law of your mind is the law of belief. This means to believe in the way your mind works, to believe in belief itself. The belief of your mind is the thought of your mind — that is simple — just that and nothing else.

Busy your mind with the concepts of harmony, health, peace, and good will, and wonders will happen in your life.

You are a gardener, and you are planting seeds (thoughts) in your subconscious mind all day long, based on your habitual thinking. As you sow in your subconscious mind, so shall you reap in your body and environment.

When you repeatedly say to people, “I can’t afford it,” then your subconscious mind takes you at your word and sees to it that you will not be in a position to purchase what you want. As long as you persist in saying, “I can’t afford that car, that trip to Europe, that home, that fur coat or ermine wrap,” you can rest assured that your subconscious mind will follow your orders, and you will go through life experiencing the lack of all these things.
