The Power of Your Subconscious Mind (DF Self-Help Treasure Book 2)

by Joseph Murphy

Your thought, as you go to sleep, arouses the powerful latency that is within you.

The action is your thought. The reaction is the response from your subconscious mind.

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.

If your thoughts are wise, your actions and decisions will be wise.

Sleep is a divine law, and many answers to our problems come to us when we are sound asleep.

The creative intelligence of my subconscious mind knows what is best for me. Its tendency is always life-ward, and it reveals to me the right decision, which blesses me and all concerned. I give thanks for the answer that I know will come to me.

Infinite intelligence within me knows all things. The right decision is revealed to me in divine order. I will recognize the answer when it comes.

No disaster or tragedy can happen to you if you decide to pray.

If you are worried that you will not wake up on time, suggest to your subconscious mind prior to sleep the exact time you wish to arise and it will awaken you.

Trust your subconscious completely. Know that its tendency is always life-ward. Occasionally, your subconscious answers you in a very vivid dream and a vision in the night. You can be forewarned in a dream in the same way as the author of this book was warned.

All marital trouble is caused by a failure to properly understand the functions and powers of the mind.

The contemplation of divine ideals, the study of the laws of life, the mutual agreement on a common purpose and plan, and the enjoyment of personal freedom bring about that harmonious marriage, that wedded bliss, that sense of oneness where the two become one.

They can be traced directly to a lack of knowledge of the working and interrelationship of the conscious and subconscious mind.

Honesty, sincerity, kindness, and integrity are all aspects of love.

You know that whatever you impress upon it will be experienced in your world.

Have a keen desire to give the best that is in you of love, devotion, and cooperation.

The thought is the action, and the response of the subconscious mind is the reaction.

Let each give attention and praise for the constructive and wonderful qualities in the other.

Relatives will usually give you the wrong advice. It is usually biased and prejudiced because it is not given in an impersonal way. Any advice you receive which violates the golden rule, which is a cosmic law, is not good or sound.

Never display the unhappy side of your marriage to your friends. Keep your quarrels to yourself. Refrain from criticism and condemnation of your partner.

Marriage is the union of a man and woman who are bound together by love. Their hearts beat as one, and they move onward, upward, and Godward.

In every human being is that limitless reservoir of power that can overcome any problem in the world.

Happiness is a state of mind.

happiness is a habit.

Marcus Aurelius, the great Roman philosopher and sage, said, “A man’s life is what his thoughts make of it.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson, said, “A man is what he thinks all day long.”

The kingdom of happiness is in your thought and feeling.

I now go forth into a new day, full of faith, confidence, and trust.

Believe in yourself, and you will succeed and be happy.

Epictetus, the Greek stoic philosopher, said. There is but one way to tranquility of mind and happiness; let this, therefore, be always ready at hand with thee, both when thou wakest early in the morning, and all the day long, and when thou goest late to sleep, to account no external things thine own, but commit all these to God.

“I choose happiness today. I choose success today. I choose right action today. I choose love and goodwill for all today. I choose peace today.”

The kingdom of happiness is in your thought and feeling.

Happiness is the harvest of a quiet mind.

Your thought is cause, and a new cause produces a new effect. Choose happiness.

The negative energy you are generating robs you of vitality, enthusiasm, strength, guidance, and goodwill.

If someone cheats and deceives another, he is actually cheating and deceiving himself.

He learned that he could disagree without being disagreeable.

What someone else says cannot really annoy or irritate you unless you permit it to disturb you.

Do not permit any person, place, or thing to deflect you from your inner sense of peace, tranquility, and radiant health.

The more love and goodwill you emanate and exude, the more comes back to you.

Strive instead to “return good for evil.” This creates an armor that keeps their difficult and unpleasant attitudes from affecting you, and your transmission of compassion and understanding will set in motion the process of changing them.

Do not permit people to take advantage of you and gain their point by temper tantrums, crying jags, or other forms of emotional blackmail.

Be firm but kind, and refuse to yield. Appeasement never wins. Refuse to contribute to their delinquency, selfishness, and possessiveness.

You are here to fulfill your ideal and remain true to the eternal verities and spiritual values...

Give no one in all the world the power to deflect you from your goal, your aim in life, which is to express your hidden talents to the world, to serve humanity, and to reveal more and more of God’s wisdom, truth, and be...

The harmony of the part is the harmony of the whole; for the whole is in the part, and the part is in the whole.

Think good of the other, and you are actually thinking good about yourself.

The good you do, the kindness proffered, the love and good you send forth will all come back to you multiplied in many ways.

Become emotionally mature and permit other people to differ with you. They have a perfect right to disagree with you, and you have the same freedom to disagree with them.

Wish for the other what you wish for yourself. This is the key to harmonious human relations.
