The world, and all within it, is man's conditioned consciousness objectified.
Consciousness is the one and only reality, not figuratively but actually.
The conscious impresses the subconscious, while the subconscious expresses all that is impressed upon it.
The subconscious does not originate ideas, but accepts as true those which the conscious mind feels to be true and, in a way known only to itself, objectifies the accepted ideas.
creation. Control of the subconscious is accomplished through control of your ideas and feelings.
It contemplates a feeling as a fact existing within itself and on this assumption proceeds to give expression to it.
The creative process begins with an idea and its cycle runs its course as a feeling and ends in a volition to act.
No idea can be impressed on the subconscious until it is felt, but once felt—be it good, bad or indifferent—it must be expressed.
Never entertain an undesirable feeling, nor think sympathetically about wrong in any shape or form. Do not dwell on the imperfection of yourself or others. To do so is to impress the subconscious with these limitations. What you do not want done unto you, do not feel that it is done unto you or another. This is the whole law of a full and happy life. Everything else is commentary.
Sensation precedes manifestation and is the foundation upon which all manifestation rests.
Think feelingly only of the state you desire to realize. Feeling the reality of the state sought and living and acting on that conviction is the way of all seeming miracles.
A change of feeling is a change of destiny.
The subconscious is not concerned with the truth or falsity of your feeling. It always accepts as true that which you feel to be true.
To impress the subconscious with the desirable state, you must assume the feeling that would be yours had you already realized your wish. In
the subconscious has a distinct distaste for compulsion and responds to persuasion rather than to command;
You are already that which you want to be, and your refusal to believe this is the only reason you do not see it.
Mastery of self-control of your thoughts and feelings is your highest achievement. However, until perfect self-control is attained, so that, in spite of appearances, you feel all that you want to feel, use sleep and prayer to aid you in realizing your desired states. These are the two gateways into the subconscious.
Because all things come from within yourself, and your conception of yourself determines that which comes, you should always feel the wish fulfilled before you drop off to sleep.
“I am successful,” you must be successful.
Never go to sleep feeling discouraged or dissatisfied. Never sleep in the consciousness of failure.
The creative process is first imagining and then believing the state imagined. Always imagine and expect the best.
The world cannot change until you change your conception of it. “As within, so without.”
you convince yourself that he is already that which you desire him to be.
You cannot fail unless you fail to convince yourself of the reality of your wish.
Feeling a state produces that state.
The acceptance of the end automatically wills the means of realization.
Dropping off to sleep feeling satisfied and happy compels conditions and events to appear in your world which confirm these attitudes of mind.
Prayer is an illusion of sleep which diminishes the impression of the outer world and renders the mind more receptive to suggestion from within.
Prayer is not so much what you ask for, as how you prepare for its reception.
Prayer is the art of assuming the feeling of being and having that which you want. When the senses confirm the absence of your wish, all conscious effort to counteract this suggestion is futile and tends to intensify the suggestion.
All you can possibly need or desire is already yours. You need no helper to give it to you; it is yours now.
You are that which you believe yourself to be.
