TWO PRINCIPLES FOR FINANCIAL SUCCESS

There are two great principles for achieving financial success.

1. THE LAW OF ATTRACTION. It says that you are a living magnet. It says that your thoughts create a force field of energy that radiates out from you and attracts back to life people and circumstances in harmony with them. Any thought you have, combined with an emotion, positive or negative, radiates out from you and attracts back into your life the people, circumstances, ideas and opportunities consistent with it. Many people feel that this is perhaps the most important of all mental laws. It says that if you have a clear idea in your mind of your desired goal, to become wealthy, and you can hold that idea in your mind on a continuing basis, you will inevitably draw into your life the resources that you need in order to achieve it. Every person who has become wealthy or successful has become wealthy and successful as a result of holding the idea of wealth and success in his or her mind long enough and hard enough, until they drew into their lives the resources they needed to accomplish it.

2. THE LAW OF CORRESPONDENCE.This mental law is very powerful. It says, "as within, so without." It says that your outer world is like a mirror that reflects back to you what is going on in your inner world. And this law of correspondence says that everything that happens outside of you corresponds to something that's going on inside of you. When we say that your outer world is a reflection of your inner world, we mean both at a conscious and at a subconscious level. If you consciously believe that you have the ability to achieve your goals and you can hold a picture of those goals clearly in your mind long enough and hard enough, eventually your outer world will correspond with it.

There are three places where we see this law of correspondence,

a). Your outer world of people will correspond exactly within your own attitude. You will always see your attitude reflected back to you in the faces and the behaviour of the people around you. If you have a positive optimistic attitude, people will respond to you almost immediately, even before you open your mouth, in a positive and cheerful way.

b). Another area is in your relationship. Your relationship will always mirror back to you exactly the kind of a person you are. When you are happy and optimistic and at peace, your relationshipos will be happy and harmonious and loving. But when your thinking is disrupted or negative for any reason, consciously or unconsciously, this will be immediately reflected in your relationships.

c). This is with regard to your wealth. Your external world of wealth and financial accomplishment will be a mirror image of your inner world of preparation. The only part of the equation that you can control is your conscious thoughts, and if you can keep your conscious thoughts on what you want, on your images of wealth and affluence, eventually your external world of reality and experiences will reflect it back to you.

Here are two things you can do to apply these principles in your financial life.

First, guard your thoughts carefully. Whatever you think about, combined with the emotions of desire or fear, you will attract into your life. Be sure that you are attracting what you want by continuing to think only about what you want.

Second, keep feeding your mind with new information, ideas and pictures of the person you want to be and the life you want to live. By creating this inner attitude of mind, you change the outer aspects of your reality.
