How Disciplined Imagination Works Wonders A wonderful way to get a response from your subconscious mind is through disciplined or scientific imagination. As previously point out, your subconscious mind is the builder of the body and controls all its vital functions.
The Bible says, Whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. To believe is to accept something as true, or to live in the state of being it. As you sustain this mood, you shall experience the joy of the answered prayer!
The best time to impregnate your subconscious occurs prior to sleep and just after we awaken. In this state the negative thoughts and imagery which tend to neutralize your desire and so prevent acceptance by your subconscious mind no longer present themselves.
During the day when fear thoughts came into her mind, she would run her mental movie with gestures, voice and sound equipment. She could easily imagine the sound of his voice, smile and mannerism. She ran this mental picture so often it became a subjective pattern, a regular train track.
1. Mental coercion or too much effort shows anxiety and fear which block your answer. Easy does it. 2. When your mind is relaxed and you accept an idea, your subconscious goes to work to execute the idea. 3. Think and plan independently of traditional methods. Know that there is always an answer and a solution to every problem.
5. The feeling of health produces health, the feeling of wealth produces wealth. How do you feel?
6. Imagination is your most powerful faculty. Imagine what is lovely and of good report. You are what you imagine yourself to be.

He told me that many men in his organization getting about one hundred dollars a week knew more about the business than he did, and could manage it better, but they had no ambition, no creative ideas and were not interested in the wonders of their subconscious mind.
You will not become a millionaire by saying, “I am a millionaire, I am a millionaire.” You will grow into a wealth consciousness by building into your mentality the idea of wealth and abundance.
The feeling of wealth produces wealth; keep this in mind at all times. Your subconscious mind is like a bank, a sort of universal financial institution. It magnifies whatever you deposit or impress upon it whether it is the idea of wealth or of poverty. Choose wealth.
The dominant idea or belief is always accepted by the subconscious mind.
Make this practical statement frequently, particularly prior to sleep: “By day and by night I am being prospered in all of my interests. “ This affirmation will not arouse any argument because it does not contradict your subconscious mind's impression of financial lack.
I suggested to one businessman whose sales and finances were very low and who was greatly worried, that he sit down in his office, become quiet, and repeat this statement over and over again: “My sales are improving every day.” This statement engaged the cooperation of the conscious and subconscious mind; results followed.
If you are full of fear about the future, you are also writing a blank check and attracting negative conditions to you. Your subconscious mind takes your fear and negative statement as your request and proceeds in its own way to bring obstacles, delays, lack and limitation to your life.
To him that hath the feeling of wealth, more wealth shall be added; to him that hath the feeling of lack, more lack shall be added. Your subconscious multiplies and magnifies whatever you deposit in it. Every morning as you awaken deposit thoughts of prosperity, success, wealth and peace. Dwell upon these concepts. Busy you mind with them as often as possible. These constructive thoughts will find their way as deposits in your subconscious mind, and bring forth abundance and prosperity.
“By day and by night I am prospered in all my ways.”
The point I want to emphasize is that if you convince your subconscious mind that wealth is yours, and that it is always circulating in your life, you will always and inevitably have it, regardless of the form it takes.
The way to overcome this emotion is to say to yourself, “Isn't it wonderful! I rejoice in that man's prosperity. I wish for him greater and greater wealth.”
Sleep & Grow Rich As you got to sleep at night, practice the following technique. Repeat the word, “Wealth,” quietly, easily and feelingly. Do this over and over again, just like a lullaby. Lull yourself to sleep with the one word, “Wealth.” You should be amazed at the result.
Wealth should flow to you in avalanches of abundance.
Repeat the word, “Wealth,” to yourself slowly and quietly for about five minutes prior to sleep and your subconscious mind will bring wealth to pass in your experience.
The feeling of wealth produces wealth. Keep that in mind at all times.
You can overcome any mental conflict regarding wealth by affirming frequently, “By day and by night I am being prospered in all of my interests.”
Increase your sales by repeating this statement over and over again, “My sales are improving every day; I am advancing, progressing and getting wealthier every day.”
Deposit thoughts of prosperity, wealth and success in your subconscious mind, and the latter will give you compound interest.
The reason for this is that he has conveyed the idea of wealth to his subconscious mind, and it keeps him supplied wherever he may be. He has convinced himself in his mind that money is forever flowing freely in his life and that there is always a wonderful surplus.
Getting The Right Attitude Toward Money Here is a simple technique you may use to multiply money in your experience. Use the following statements several times a day, “I like money, I love it, I use it wisely, constructively and judiciously. Money is constantly circulating in my life. I release it with joy and it returns to me multiplied in a wonderful way. It is good and very good. Money flows to me in avalanches of abundance. I use it for good only and I am grateful for my good and for the riches of my mind.”
“Having seen the end, you have willed the means to the realization of the end.”
“I know the power of sustained imagination to bring success.”
One of the men present at my lecture was a young stockbroker. He proceeded to adopt the technique of Goethe. He began to have mental, imaginary conversations with a multimillionaire banker friend of his who used to congratulate him on his wise and sound judgment and compliment him on his purchase of the right stocks. He used to dramatize this imaginary conversation until he had psychologically fixed it as a form of belief in his mind.
Remember always that what you are seeking is also seeking you, and whenever you want to sell a home or property of any kind, there is always someone who wants what you have to offer. By using the powers of your subconscious mind correctly, you free your mind of all sense of competitor and anxiety in buying and selling.
Go to sleep feeling successful every night, and perfectly satisfied, and you will eventually succeed in implanting the idea of success in your subconscious mind. Believe you were born to succeed and wonders will happen as you pray!
“I will never cease to marvel at the wonders of the subconscious mind. Truly, it has ways we know not of.”
Quiet the mind and still the body. Tell the body to relax; it has to obey you. It has no volition, initiative or self conscious intelligence. Your body is an emotional disk which records your beliefs and impressions. Mobilize your attention; focus your thought on the solution to your problem. Try to solve it with your conscious mind. Think how happy you would be about the perfect solution. Sense the feeling you would have if the perfect answer were yours now. Let your mind play with this mood in a relaxed way; then drop off to sleep. When you awaken, and you do not have the answer, get busy

If you are wondering about the answer to a problem, try to solve it objectively. Get all the information you can from research and also from others. If no answer comes, turn it over to your subconscious mind prior to sleep, and the answer always comes. It never fails.
You delay the answer by thinking it will take a long time or that it is a major problem. Your subconscious has no problem, it knows only the answer.
“Infinite Intelligence within me knows all things, and the right decision is revealed to me in divine order. I will recognize the answer when it comes.”
He was a vivid dreamer and had the persistent habit of giving specific instructions to his subconscious every night prior to sleep. He would request his subconscious to evolve stories for him while he slept. For example, if Stevenson's funds were at a low ebb, his command to his subconscious would be something like this: “Give me a good thrilling novel which will be marketable and profitable.” His subconscious responded magnificently.
The way to build a peaceful home and a happy marriage is to use a foundation of love, beauty, harmony, mutual respect, faith in God and all things good. Read the 23rd, 27th and 91stPsalms, the 11th chapter of Hebrews, the 13th chapter of 1 Corinthians and other great texts of the Bible before going to sleep.
Trust implicitly the wisdom of your subconscious mind. It has the “know-how,” and you don't have to assist it.
True and lasting happiness will come into your life the day you get the clear realization that you can overcome any weakness the day you realize that your subconscious can solve your problems, heal your body and prosper you beyond your fondest dream.
“Peace, harmony and poise govern my mind at all times.”
William James said that the greatest discovery of the nineteenth century was the power of the subconscious mind touched by faith.
There is tremendous power within you. Happiness will come to you when you acquire a sublime confidence in this power. Then, you will make your dreams come true.
When you open your eyes in the morning, say to yourself, I choose happiness today. I choose success today. I choose right action today. I choose love and good will for all today. I choose peace today. Pour life, love and interest into this affirmation, and you have chosen happiness.
Give thanks for all your blessings several times day. Furthermore, pray for the peace, happiness and prosperity of all members of your family, your associates and all people everywhere.

Happiness is the harvest of a quiet mind. Anchor your thoughts on peace, poise, security and divine guidance and your mind will be productive of happiness.
The hateful, frustrated, distorted and twisted personality is out of tune with the infinite. He resents those who are peaceful, happy and joyous. Usually he criticizes, condemns and vilifies those who have been very good and kind to him. His attitude is this: Why should they be so happy when he is so miserable? He wants to drag them down to his own level. Misery loves company. When you understand this you remain unmoved, calm and dispassionate.
