this attitude of mind: If there is here an advertisement that it will
be well for me to reply to, the moment I come to it I will recognize
it. Affirm this, believe it, expect it. If you do this in full faith
you will somehow feel the intuition the moment you come to the right
one, and this intuition will be nothing more nor less than your own
soul speaking to you. When it speaks then act at once.
If you get the situation and it does not prove to be exactly what you
want, if you feel that you are capable of filling a better one, then
the moment you enter upon it take the attitude of mind that this
situation is the stepping-stone that will lead you to one that will be
still better. Hold this thought steadily, affirm it, believe it,
expect it, and all the time be faithful, _absolutely faithful_ to the
situation in which you are at present placed. If you are _not_
faithful to it then the chances are that it will not be the
stepping-stone to something better, but to something poorer. If you
are faithful to it, the time may soon come when you will be glad and
thankful, when you will rejoice, that you lost your old position.
This is the law of prosperity: When apparent adversity comes, be not
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, to
affirm these things, for by so doing you put forth an ideal which will
begin to clothe itself in material form. In this way you are utilizing
agents among the most subtle and powerful in the universe. If you are
