mistake thinking yesterday
Do not dwell upon the sins and mistakes of yesterday so exclusively as to have no energy and mind left for living rightly today, and do not think that the sins of yesterday can prevent you from living purely today.
attitude action a-man-thinketh
Thought is the fountain of action, life and manifestation; make the fountain pure, and all will be pure.
character positive-thinking mind
Mind is the master weaver, both of the inner garment of character and the outer garment of circumstance.
men grieving worry
A man becomes calm in the measure that he understands himself as a thought-evolved being. For such knowledge necessitates the understanding of others as the result of thought, and as he develops a right understanding, and sees ever more clearly the internal relations of things by the action of cause and effect, he ceases to fuss, fume, worry, and grieve. He remains poised, steadfast, serene.
winning doubt literature
They who have conquered doubt and fear have conquered failure.
men law-of-attraction conquer
A man can only rise, conquer, and achieve by lifting up his thoughts.
inspirational positive success
For true success ask yourself these four questions: Why? Why not? Why not me? Why not now?
strong heart sacrifice
Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves; they therefore remain bound. The man who does not shrink from self-crucifixion can never fail to accomplish the object upon which his heart is set. This is true of earthly as of heavenly things. Even the man whose object is to acquire wealth must be prepared to make great personal sacrifices before he can accomplish his object; and how much more so he who would realize a strong and well-poised life.
encouraging inspiration not-giving-up
Circumstances do not make the man, they reveal him.
jesus father meditation
Jesus brooded upon the Divine imminence until at last he could declare, 'I and my Father are One.'
honesty fruit bears
Good thoughts bear good fruit, bad thoughts bear bad fruit.
character thinking long
A noble and God-like character is not a thing of favor or chance, but is the natural result of continued effort in right thinking, the effect of long-cherished association with God-like thoughts.
fall loss self
They who have no central purpose in their life fall an easy prey to petty worries, fears, troubles, and self-pitying, all of which are indications of weakness, which lead, just as surely as deliberately planned sins (though by a different route), to failure, unhappiness, and loss, for weakness cannot persist in a power evolving universe.
light discovery rely-upon
Rely upon your own judgment; be true to your own conscience; follow the light that is within you; all outward lights are so many will-o'-the-wisps. There will be those who tell you that you are foolish; that your judgment is faulty; that your conscience is all awry, and that the light within you is darkness; but heed them not. If what they say is true, the sooner you, as a searcher of wisdom, find it out the better, and you can only make that discovery by bringing your powers to the test. Therefore, pursue your course bravely.
