cast down by it, but make the best of it, and always look forward for
better things, for conditions more prosperous. To hold yourself in this
attitude of mind is to set into operation subtle, silent, and
irresistible forces that sooner or later will actualize in material form
that which is today merely an idea. But ideas have occult power, and
ideas, when rightly planted and rightly tended, are the seeds that
actualize material conditions.

Never give a moment to complaint, but utilize the time that would
otherwise be spent in this way in looking forward and actualizing the
conditions you desire. Suggest prosperity to yourself. See yourself in a
prosperous condition. Affirm that you will before long be in a
prosperous condition. Affirm it calmly and quietly, but strongly and
confidently. Believe it, believe it absolutely. Expect it,--keep it
continually watered with expectation. You thus make yourself a magnet to
attract the things that you desire. Don't be afraid to suggest.
