It is quite necessary, then, that the successful businessman should keep his mind on thoughts of happiness, which produce cheerfulness instead of depression. He should a radiate joy and should be filled with faith, hope and expectancy. These cheerful, hopeful attitudes of mind are indispensable to the one who really wants to do things in life. Declare your freedom. Know that no matter what others may say, think or do, you are a success now, and nothing can hinder you from accomplishing your good. All the power of the universe is with you. Feel it, know it, and then act as though it were true.

Begin to blot out, one by one, all false beliefs – -all ideas that men is limited, poor or miserable. Refuse to think of failure or doubt your own power. See only what you wish to experience and look at nothing else. We are relieved of all thought of clinging to anybody or anything. Cannot the great principle of life create for us all that we need? The universe is inexhaustible; it is limitless, knows no bounds and has no confines. We are not depending on a reed shaken by the wind, but on the principle of life itself, for all that we have or ever she’ll need. It is not some power, or a great power, it is all power. All we have to do is to believe, never wavering, no matter what happens. As we do this, we shall find that things are steadily coming our way and that they are coming without that awful effort which destroys the peace of mind of the majority of the race. We know that there can be no failure in god’s mind, and this is the great power to which we are depending.
