 Your Prosperity Key Is In This Paragraph... |

Every once in a while I like to just let randomness take me places... In this case - I just took my often used and dog-eared copy of my favorite self-help book of all time - "The Law of Success In Sixteen Lessons" by Napoleon Hill - and just focused on the first paragraph that caught my eye. As it turned out - this paragraph from page 9 of Lesson Four - "The Habit of Saving" decided to jump in front of my vision...a timely reminder that the world moves in ways we will never understand... "Form the habit of thinking and talking of prosperity and abundance, and very soon material evidence of these will begin to manifest itself in the nature of wider opportunity and new and unexpected opportunity." Guess what? It DOES! But it only took me until recently to understand why. There is one single thing in that paragraph that, if you don't do it...then ALL of the rest will NEVER fall into place. Now...read the paragraph again with a little more focus...and see if you can spot it. (it's OK...I'll wait)... "Form the habit of thinking and talking of prosperity and abundance, and very soon material evidence of these will begin to manifest itself in the nature of wider opportunity and new and unexpected opportunity." Got it? I've written many times before about it - but, even though I THOUGHT that I put it into practice - looking back - I see that I hadn't. Sure...I was THINKING about prosperity and abundance. Of course...I was TALKING about prosperity and abundance. I most certainly was...LOOKING for wider, new, and unexpected, opportunities to come my way. (And...I was certainly ACTING on a few of them, too!) Yet still...even though on many levels I was 'there' - I wasn't QUITE there (if you get my meaning!). All this thinking, talking, and looking WAS getting me SOMEWHERE that was for certain. But... I was still not hitting the target consistently. (there's a clue for you right there!) And I'll tell you WHY...next time! But in the meantime - what do YOU think?
