This corresponds with something that I have been reviewing recently. Let me share some of it: "We are largely what we have thought ourselves into being, the balance being the suggestions and thought of others, which have reached us either directly by verbal suggestions or telepathically by means of thought waves. Our general mental attitude, however, determines the character of the thought waves received from others as well as the thoughts emanating from us. We attract to us the thoughts of others of the same order of thought. The man who looks for good in everything and everybody is likely to attract to himself the things and people corresponding to his thought. We generally see that for which we look. A positive thought is infinitely more powerful than a negative one, and if by force of will we raise ourselves to a higher mental key we can shut out depressing thoughts and take up the vibrations corresponding with our changed mental attitude. This is one of the secrets of affirmations. There is no particular merit in affirmations of themselves but they serve a twofold purpose: (1) They tend to establish new mental attitudes within us and act wonderfully in the direction making ourselves over. (2) They tend to raise the mental keynote so that we may get the benefit of the positive thought waves of others on the same plane of thought. Rise to the upper chambers of your mental dwelling way above the vibrations on the lower planes of thought. You will not only be immune to their negative vibrations but will be in touch with the great body of strong positive thought coming from those of your own plane of development. Thought Vibration. |
